We had our 3rd appt today. Roo's heart rate was in the 150's and we decided to go ahead and finish up the genetic testing, which means I donate more blood to the masses. My uterus gets measured now and I am right on schedule. Dr. Griffith prepped me for my long trip home with reminders of walking and plenty of fluids and that we would see her in 4 weeks. (FYI - test came back negative)

We left on Friday for our trip home. We were so excited to finally see Texas soil again. We got in at 3, relaxed and had an amazing BBQ dinner with steak, potatoes, and crab legs!!! YUM!!!! Saturday was venturing to the Navy Exchange and buying out their stock in reef sandals, getting my hair cut and dyed (thank you Stephanie) and having our dinner/baby shower at Cancun. I was so happy to have their food again. Everyone was there, Bob & Jeepie, Donald Mack, Glenda & Tracy, Marion and Jack, Mary Alice & Tilda & Amelia, Pam & Omar, Bertha & John & Juan, Stella and Chuck. Lots of pictures were taken and we got our first baby gifts!!! Sunday was breakfast at Floyd's, trip to the mall, and another party at Lori and Jeremy's. It was so much fun playing caught up with out favorite neighbors. Monday was our final trip to the exchange and hitting the road for Houston.

We got an amazing suite at the Hampton Inn, compliments to my hubby and spent from Monday to Thursday spending time with Norma and Harry. We got to caught up with Mary Beth and Chris and their new addition Eli. Sarah and Kyle and dinner at Wolfie's. I also got to see Karen, Michael, and Uncle Gary. Uncle Gary looked better, but it was still hard to look at this strong man who couldn't remember a lot of things and got easily frustrated. We finished the trip seeing John and Cassie and on Thursday afternoon headed to Paris

Thursday and Friday was caughting up with family, eating at Paris Bakery, and shopping at Paris Baby and Paris farmer's market. We ate at the pub for ole time's sake (I had a coke). Saturday was our 2nd baby shower in which we got more stuff for Roo! It was a nice relaxing party with the family. Sunday was breakfast and heading back to Vancouver, WA. I cried when I have to leave Texas, I just wanted to stay!!!

Playing caught up was a nightmare. SO much laundry, doggie fun time, and cleaning. We picked up our first things for Roo of a swing, bouncer, tub, and play thing. We even got some cute clothes that were too cute to pass up!!!! Feeling good, but I know I gained five pounds from all the junk I ate in Texas!! Oh well, you only live once and Roo enjoyed it!!!

And the verdict is........... IT'S A GIRL! We are welcoming a new little girl summer in this world. Names are still being worked on and finally knowing that Roo is a her, is priceless. A future Daddy's girl!
