Turnip

We've officially made it to the "17 week" mark! Baby Krueger is now about 5 inches long from the top of their little head to their little butt, and weighing in at around 5 ounces (about the size of a turnip). Baby is currently going through a rapid growth spurt where they are DOUBLING in size over just 4 weeks time, and I can definitely tell that things are getting bigger in there :P

One exciting thing that happened during my 15th week was getting to feel that amazing sensation of baby Krueger practicing all their acrobatic moves. At first it wasn't very consistent, but I now feel baby multiple times a day each day, especially in the morning, at bedtime, and also in the middle of the night. Baby has lots of energy!

I've still been feeling pretty well, thankfully. My biggest complaint would be that my allergies are still making me quite miserable, but other than that, I don't have much to complain about :)

Our next OB appointment is June 18th, and hopefully we will be able to get our anatomy ultrasound scheduled for sometime during the first week of July so we can see how much baby Krueger has grown (since seeing them last at only 9 weeks!) AND find out if there's a little girl or a little boy in there! Most friends and family are guessing "boy" (as are we) but we'll just have to wait and see :)

We are beyond thankful for this 'little' blessing God has given us, and we are so excited for what these next few weeks will bring. We cannot wait for November to get here so we can finally meet this little one and start our little family :)
