21 Weeks

So this week has been lots of fun. I was productive and cleaned to whole house on my two days off including shampooing the carpets, brad installed a new closet shelf, and clearing out the nursery. And then  on thursday our crib came in the mail! so we put that together thursday night and now it seems like a real room.
Kaya is curious to say the least, as you can see by her interest in being a part of this weeks pictures.

So here are some picks of the crib coming together. 

 It was a great week, we made progress in the house. Started the nursery. And spent all day friday exploring pike place market and some cute little resturaunts in the ballard district.



How many weeks: 21 weeks and 4 days
This week baby is the size of a..... Spaghetti squash! 10 and 1/4 inches long!

This week our baby weighs..... Approximately 3/4 pound. i would estimate that she is 13-14 oz based on her estimated weight from the 20 week ultrasound. 
This week  baby girl......has eyelashes and and eyebrows that are fully developed. is capable of having sleep/wake cycles. So it looks like she will start to set her own schedule soon! Right now she sleeps 12 -14 hours a day.
 Boy or girl? GIRL!!!
Total weight gain/ loss: +10 ish.
Showing: yep
Maternity Clothes: I can still wear a few pairs of my normal pants if i use a hair band looped through my button hole.. lol. However, i do love my maternity capris. They are super comfy and look nice, plus the show my tiny belling off a little more. So i wear those pretty much all the time. I need to invest in some belly bands/ more maternity pants.
Best moment this week:Working on the nursery/ putting the crib together. It felt nice to have a start to her room.
Have you told family/ friends: i think most people know at this point!
Food cravings: Pickles, all sweet food, and artificial crab meat, oh and coconut flavored anything (yogurt, ice cream). I love coconut things! 
Miss anything?: Sushi!!everything else i have seemed to find an adequate substitute for but nothing can replace sushi!
Anything making you sick: Not much anymore. 
Pregnancy symptoms: acne... which has actually gotten better lately.
Movement: yep. 
Gender prediction: It's a Girl!
We call our baby:  Adrienne Elizabeth Gochnauer is her name!
Looking forward to: decorating a girl nursery! Having a check up again at 23 weeks! and spending time with the family next week.
Soon to be daddy is.... loving his baby girls! baby girl number one ( kaya, and only number one because she came first) is very curious about Adrienne's room and all the new commotion going on and also super attached to her mommy and daddy. Adrienne hasnt quite gotten to the point where she reacts to her daddy's voice or kayas barks but im sure the time will come when she does those. Anyways, daddy is excited about having a little girl. Today, he explained to me his plans for her to participate in sports and what age he will participate in each sport.


Until Next Week,
