21 weeks - YAY!

After a very eventful week of traveling, and appointments, it’s good to settle down and really let it sink in that we are going to have a beautiful baby girl in our arms in less than 5 months.  We are going to register this week and also get started on the nursery before Joey has ear surgery next week.  I am starting to get kicked more and more lately, and the doctor said that it should be pretty consistent in the next few weeks.  We have booked our child birth class, and have decided on the Bradley method, and our classes start in January.  Once we get into the class and get started, I will go into a little more detail about how the classes and the method works.
In other news, the name selection process has somewhat begun.  We are making lists, but who knows how long this will take.  It’s such a big decision!
Enough about me, here’s the 21 week update on Baby Girl B:
Your baby now weighs about three-quarters of a pound and is approximately 10 1/2 inches long — the length of a carrot. You may soon feel like she's practicing martial arts as her initial fluttering movements turn into full-fledged kicks and nudges. You may also discover a pattern to her activity as you get to know her better. In other developments, your baby's eyebrows and lids are present now, and if you're having a girl, her vagina has begun to form as well.
