OK, Time is quickly passing

We have to have a pool for our water baby. He got much more enjoyment out of letting the water our of the pool the first time. Here is Daddy baby proofing our house. I had to take a picture of this, since it's the tupperware cubboard that he started with, and I didn't think there was much danger in that cubboard. :) But Gunnar wanted to help, so now there are locks on all the doors, which just causes Gunnar to open and close them really hard, since now he gets frustrated that he can't get in them.
Daddy loves his Otter Pops, and now Gunnar loves them too. Gunnar is getting his hair cut. The lady let him play a little with the clippers first, but he still wouldnt let her near his head with them. She managed to get the back shaved a little at the neckline, but his around his ears is still a little untamed.
Some friends of Amy's and I took her out on the town for some fun before her Wedding night. We ended up eating at this awesome Mexican Resterant called Frank and Lupes. Amy said she loved it because it reminded her of Honduras. Then we went to an improv comedy club, where they had us all in stiches. They grilled her for a few minutes and created a sketch just for her. It was a night I don't think that she will forget.

Here's the rehersal - Arizona style - almost everyone in shorts :)
Daddy is playing with Gunnar at the park during the rehersal dinner. Daddy was a great daddy that weekend and let me goand be a part of the wedding festivities.

Gunnar is now walking. Doesn't even want to crawl anymore. Even tries to run after Daddy when he plays hide and go seek around the corners of the house. It is so fun watching him develop. The Dr said that she can't even tell by his milestones that he is even a premie anymore. The temper tantrums have started as well, if he doesn't get his way when he wants it, but as long as we divert his attention a little, it usually curbs them.
As for me? I'm just plugging along. I have 5 more weeks to go. Dr. thinks that we are going to make it all the way this time. He is very pleased with my Blood Pressure - in fact this last visit, it was the best he's seen it. Guess being out of school is nice on the pressure also. Because of the history though we will be upping the visits to 2 times a week starting next week. I will be doing Non-Stress Tests. Basically I will sit in a chair and they will monitor Adelyn's movements for abuot 1/2 hour. As long as she's cooperating, that's it. We wait it out until July 19th. Dr. is expecting me to be home around the 22nd as long as all goes well.
