Catching Up.....Part 2 (Pictures Galore)

It is amazing how fast July snuck up on us....we were really looking forward to a long 4th of July weekend over in Sunriver with the Eadie and Doan families. Heidi and Dan flew into Redmond on July 1st with their 4.5 month old daughter, Clare, who we were meeting for the first time. My one and only goal was to actually be able to go on this trip and NOT be put on bed rest. At this point in my pregnancy with Grant, I was on full bed rest and dilated. Thank goodness that wasn't the case and we were able to enjoy a fun filled 5 days!


We fit more in those 5 days then I think I ever have while over in Sunriver. We spend a couple afternoons at the pool. Syd & I enjoying the kiddy pool.

Grant found a new love in the life jacket....pure Independence! Let Pool Freedom Ring! The Grant toss. The cute Eadie Family. Quinn & Barrett enjoying the sunshine. Out near the links. Heidi & Me. Luke & Grant playing putt putt.
Horse rides really tired the dads out! Three on one! Go Quinn... Dan gets a piece of the action as Luke and Grant try to take him out. One of many pillow fights. The kids got their faces painted at the 4th of July Fireman's Picnic. Dan the Man grilling up some meat! Everyone is in the 4th of July Spirit....Grant, Heidi & Clare! Clare could hang with the big kids- with just a few short cat naps. We were able to spend some time with the Forseth family too. They were over in Sunriver with Shannon, Marc, their kids, Jen and Ben. Grant is just chilling on the long ride home from Sunriver....he always says how long of a drive it is! I agree!

So I have had some people ask me to post a prego picture on FB....yeah right! But if you have made it through this long blog, here is the most recent picture of me a 32 weeks! I am feeling large and ready for baby 'WILL" (William John Kolberg) to arrive. At my 32 week appointment, things looked good, however they determined that I have a very short cervix. I guess that means that I am starting to progress already. No dilation, which is great, but I was advised to take it really easy to get Will to at least 36 weeks. This week has been filled with contraction, which is really nothing new to me. I just take time to lay down and put my feet up! It is hard to believe that he will be here before we know it.

Congrats to you....you made it through my "Catching Up" blogs :-)
