The Garden of the Gods

It's been awhile since I've posted anything on here so let me do some catching up. A few weekends ago we went down to Colorado Springs and walked around this place called The Garden of the Gods. It reminded me a lot of Southern Utah. It was very beautiful and a nice little walk. Ryan finished his first year of Med School on June 9th and I am so proud of him. He worked so hard and did very well. This week we took Rafe to the Denver Nature and Science Museum. Rafe and I had been once before but this time we were able to take Ryan with us. Rafe loves to see all of the animals and, of course, the Dinosaurs. We have loved having Ryan all to ourselves these past few days but won't get him for long. He leaves Sunday morning, early, to San Antonio, TX for Air Force Medicine Training for two weeks. We will miss him on Father's Day again but are very proud of all he does.

Yesterday I had a Dr.'s appointment and everything is on track for July 4th. Baby is doing well. They did an ultra sound and at this point he is measuring 6 lbs 12 oz, which is already bigger than Rafe was when he was born. She said his head is very large....."off the charts" she said....."I don't even have a number for how big it is". "His torso is good in size which means he'll be at least 8 lbs." So this "little" guy will be good sized, I guess. My amniotic fluid level is on the higher end. 21 to 22 is considered high and I'm at 19.8 something. So they are going to keep an eye on it to make sure everything is ok. I'm not worried because I had TONS with Rafe. I'm just an amniotic producing momma. But she said if it gets to a point where she feels it's something to worry about she will induce me any time as soon as next week. I told her, "I hope not because Ryan leaves Sunday for two weeks." She said that if it keeps going up but everything is fine, then she will just let me go on my own. But I haven't dropped yet and I'm, once again, completely closed. Not dilated one bit. So that leads me to believe it won't happen while Ryan is gone. Let's keep our fingers crossed. I'll keep you all posted.
