Just about 21 weeks!!!

Well our little girl has cooked for just about 21 weeks now!! Hooray! It has been a busy two weeks for the Kaye Family (again)! My sister turned.......well we won't say how old and I spent the weekend in Bend helping her celebrate along with my mom. We painted pottery and ate lots of food. That same weekend Saul moved us into our new place in Lake Oswego. We are finally all moved in and getting used to the new digs. The dogs seem very happy and we are loving all the space. This past weekend we carved pumpkins, sat by the fire, and then on Sunday we registered at Babies R Us. Saul and I were both overwhelmed with the number of choices. I can say I was probably the only one walking around with a husband chewing sunflower seeds and scanning the gun without any direction. So if you see duplicates blame Saul :) I am still without much of a baby bump so I thought I would leave you all with a pregnancy survey. Have a great Monday and I will be sure to update again soon!

• How far along?: 20 weeks 5 days
  
• Total weight gain: Well about 4 pounds
  
• Maternity clothes: Just two pairs of work pants so far
• Sleep: Sucks but what do you expect when you are told to only sleep on your side lol
  
• Best moment of the week: Carving pumpkins by the fire with Saul in our new place
• Movement: Yes quite a few kicks every day
  
• Gender: GIRL!!!
  
• Food cravings: Anything with pumpkin...........I really mean anything
  
• Labor signs: No
• Bell button in or out: In
• What I miss most: I miss a nice glass of wine with dinner

• Milestones: Baby Kaye is the size of a banana!!!

We made it to 18 weeks!!!

Well we are long over due for an update on Baby Kaye. Today I am 18 weeks 3 days and our little one weighed 10 ounces (that is 2 ahead of schedule). The past few weeks have been busy but also quite exciting. At 16 weeks we planned a surprise trip for my mom. She showed up to our house on a Saturday expecting to go shopping with me for baby clothes. That morning I convinced her that Saul really wanted to come with us and that he would drive. Instead of taking her shopping we made our way to Beaverton to the Portland Ultrasound Clinic. It was so much fun to see the look on her face she truly had no idea!!! For me this was the best part because I am terrible at not giving away surprises. We spent over an hour at the clinic with one very stubborn baby but after eating pixie stixs, running the stairs, and shaking the belly we found out we had a baby GIRL!!!! I think we were all shocked but so excited at the same time. Yesterday, I had another ultrasound through my doctor and they confirmed we have a little girl!!! Let the shopping begin.........

I know everyone is eager for belly pictures but there still is not much to show. As soon as I start growing I will post those on here along with the ultrasound pics!!!

What else has the Kaye Family been up to??? Well we are getting ready to move next weekend so that has kept us pretty busy. Last weekend we went apple picking at an orchard in Brooks! We had such a great time and are now overwhelmed with apples. I guess that is all for today and I will start updating this little blog more often (okay Sees??)

Love,
The Kayes
