19 Weeks

I am 19 Weeks along today and we had out ultrasound.It was amazing to see how much the baby has grown since our last little peek at her over 2 months ago. We decided to go ahead and leave the sex of the baby a secret because we think it'll make the birth that much more special for us.Everything looked great and measured normally. I thought his legs looked long (which wouldn't surprise me) but the tech said they measure just right.The baby moved around a lot! We saw her kicking and rubbing her eyes. He likes to have his hands by his face and we even saw him sucking his thumb.
It was exciting to see the baby and we are looking forward to meeting him/her in a few more months.

Northwest Trip-Hood River

On Thursday Denice left her kids with a babysitter and took Marq & I hiking to Triple Falls. Look how beautiful! It's like a whole different world deep in the forest with all the huge old trees, crazy moss, ferns and water. I love the Northwest because it is so lush, fertile and nurturing. It's a totally different beauty than the bareness we both grew up with in Utah.
It's a definitely a different energy that Marq & I both seem drawn to.
