Week 28


7 months!!  Provided she needs to bake the entire time, only 3 months left until she’s done!  Today was our 28 weeks doctor appointment.  Everything went well.  It was the normal weight, measurements, and listening to her heartbeat.  The results of my glucose test were good – no concerns.  Dr. Kil said I “look great” and am having a “textbook” pregnancy J  So far everything’s been great.

My friend Kathy ended up going into labor over the weekend.  Her little girl was born 4 weeks early but mother and baby are doing well.  Quinn Kelly is her name and she’s currently in the NICU awaiting some test results but positive thoughts and she will get to go home tomorrow.  They thought she had an infection but it doesn’t seem it’s the case right now and everything is looking good thus far so cross your fingers for them!

This past weekend Steve and I participated in the 5th Annual Some Gave All Memorial motorcycle ride.  The ride began at Spotsylvania High School and ended at King George High School.  The ride is in memory of all who serve but is specifically geared towards the remembrance of Sgt. Nick Mason from King George and Sgt. Joshua Frazier from Spotsylvania.  Both Mason and Frazier lost their lives fighting for our freedom.  Mason was a King George native who was a member of the fire department with Steve and I and Nick’s father is the clerk of the courts for King George County.  Having known Nick and his family personally and being the person who gave Nick’s “last call” for the fire department over the radio for his funeral, I feel privileged to have participated in this event for a second year in a row.  There were over 1300 bikes in the ride and the double file lines stretched for 7 miles from Spotsy to KG.  It was also great to see the support of people who don’t have motorcycles standing on the side of the road to watch the event.  Visit http://www.somegaveall.org/ for more information about Some Gave All if you are interested. 

Riding at 7 months pregnant wasn’t bad.  If I had been any bigger I would not have been able to ride though…LOL….here are some pics from that event:
