21 weeks!
Baby is now the size of a pomegranate! It was getting close to the end of my 21st week, so I decided it was best to take a photo while I could (at the bathroom at work) instead of missing it altogether.
Highlights: Baby still moves a fair amount. I LOVE feeling it! It's not all the time, but it is always reassuring and fun when I do.
Cravings: Asian food, apples. I'm still a little picky about what I eat, but it isn't terrible.
Looking forward to: I know we still have a long way to go until February, but I am really excited that we are almost to the point of viability at 24 weeks. Each milestone feels amazing at this point!

20 weeks!
Baby Reynolds was 20 weeks on Saturday! It's been a pretty crazy week, so I barely got this photo snapped last night (at 20 weeks, 4 days). Our baby is the size of a banana!
Highlights: I started feeling baby move at EXACTLY 20 weeks! On Saturday, I started feeling the little flutters (almost felt like little muscle spasms). By the fourth time that day, I was finally convinced it was the baby! Since then, I've consistently felt baby move a few times a day. It is such a highlight to my day.
We had our fetal echocardiogram on Monday, but baby decided to not cooperate. He/she moved around way too much, so we ended up needing to reschedule for four more weeks from now. However, we got some great photos, and it's always fun to see the little one! The doctor did say that from what they could see, everything looked okay.
Cravings: Food! Nothing in particular has stood out as far as cravings, but it's such a welcome relief to be way less picky about food finally. I even feel hungry!
Looking forward to: My parents are coming to help us with the nursery this weekend, so I'm super excited to get that room closer to ready. Now that we are over halfway (I'm 20 weeks, 5 days as I write this), it's really sinking in what all we still need to accomplish.
One of my favorite new photos!
