5. SEE PICTURE AT RIGHT!!

A little jelly on the end of a magic wand and PRESTO! A movie in real time of a miracle!!


During our now weekly visits to the doctor yesterday, he wanted to make sure the baby was "in position" so he sent us for one last ultrasound where we found out that the baby WAS in the right position and was rather large. 6 lbs, 9 oz with just shy of a month to go.


Everything went perfectly! The heartbeat was good and strong and all the measurements were normal. The only bit of bad news we got at all was.... get ready for it..

The only bit of bad news we got at all was, "The cervix is closed!" ( I can't believe I just said that).





Other than the little miracle thing, my diet and running have been going good. Hitting the gym every day for either a run (5.72 miles this morning) , an hour on the elliptical, or lifting weights. I'm starting to love my Garmin 205 almost as much as my iPod, which is a lot!
