This week I am 17 weeks pregnant. Still the same progress except I feel the baby kick a bit more. Usually about 1-2 times a day. Really cool. I cant seem to get enough food lately. All last week I just couldn't stop eating. I still am not really showing other than looking a little thicker although this food I have been eating may change that. A mtn biker friend Patty who is 4 weeks ahead of me said for her it was an overnight change. So we will see.

Jacob is back from his whirlwind trip to MA. He had a death in his family so he went up Thursday for the funeral and was able to fit in some bike riding. He got back yesterday. We definitely missed him, and by we I mean Kona and I. Kona slept right with me every night and even felt that he could use me as his pillow. Very cute.

I was able to finish sewing the squares of the baby's quilt to occupy my time. Just waiting for my mom to make the curtains and the dust ruffle so she can send the spare fabric back. I am using the same fabric for the binding. Thanks to my mom's help I would not have been able to get so much of it done while she was here. Once it is complete I will post pics up... so until then you will just have to wait. :^)

Friday we have our first ultrasound. We hope to find out the sex. So get your vote in on what you think we will have. Click here or on the Vote link top left. Although we are going to have them write it down then do something special over the weekend to find out so you have until the weekend is done.

WARNING not intended for Squirrel lovers: Speaking of Kona. He managed to catch his first squirrel this weekend. While I was out running with him on Sunday at Beatty, I saw the squirrel run across the trail into two logs lying on the ground. Kona did not miss a beat and stood right there. Then next thing I knew he had the squirrel in his mouth. He dropped it when I yelled for him to drop it. But of course picked it right back up. The second time he dropped it I was able to grab his collar to pull him away. A mtn biker came up and said he would take care of the injured squirrel for me. Congrats to Kona but poor squirrel rest in peace. He does go on Squirrel duty in our backyard to keep them out but he had never caught one before that I know of.
