Yesterday MaKenna had another scan to look at the "spot" on her last MRI. Thank you Jesus - it hasn't grown!!! That was such good news and the whole family is feeling some relief. They will come down at the end of July and see if it has grown then. If not, we can assume it is something other than a tumor like a big blood vessel or a weird spot where her bones fused together. They will always check it out when she has her regular scans, but as of right now we are just happy it is nothing to be majorly concerned about. We couldn't ask for better news.
MaKenna and Rilyn had a great time together and love seeing eachother. It is very strange how much they look alike because Rilyn is Decker through and through, but her and MaKenna could be sisters. Rilyn would also like to say a big thank you to Mashaela for the pretty bracelets. She loves them! You are so creative and we love the gifts you make us.
We also had a great check-up yesterday. We got to have our check-up with Laura the midwife that caught Rilyn. It's neat being able to form relationships with people that are a part of such an important event. Unfortunately for us she will be out on maternity leave when we are expecting this next one because it would be really cool to have her again!
The baby's heartbeat was 150 so it's bordering on the high/low margin so that doesn't help us much with determining the sex. Rilyn's was always much higher, but I think they consider low under 140 for a boy. Of course that is just an old wives tale, but it proved true with Rilyn.
I've gained some weight 4 1/2 pounds since my last appointment and I had my glucose test done. We don't have the results but no news is good news so hopefully everything is good with that. I'm measuring right at 28 weeks. I'm actually gaining about the same weight that I did with Rilyn and it is fun to compare the two pregnancies.

Here is Rilyn with Laura at 1 week old and now 15 months!
We don't have too much planned for this weekend, but hoping there's some pajama time 2 out of 2 mornings this weekend! Have a relaxing and fun-filled weekend!
Whoa a wopping 4 1/2 pounds. How are you such a fit, cute pregnant lady???
