I got a call from the doctor's office today. My hormone levels have gone down from the 8000s on Monday to the 2000s yesterday. They need to be at a 2, so I have to go back in two weeks for another blood draw to see if they are back to normal. The good news is that they have lowered enough that I do not at this time need medication or a D&C. I am hoping it stays that way. The medicine makes you feel like you are going into labor, which would be really hard to deal with (emotionally) right now. The D&C is invasive and really not fun either. I am just hoping that it will all be over soon. I cannot run until my levels get back to normal, so it will be at least another 2 weeks before I am allowed to go for a run. Luckily I am allowed to walk. I find being outside exercising to be a huge help during tough emotional times. Graesen and I have been doing a lot of walking.
Today is so nice and warm. I dressed Graesen in a little shorts outfit that he wore last spring too. I even put a sweater on him this morning that is the same as the one he wore last year, just bigger (my mom made the sweaters). My little guy has grown so much since last year and sometimes I wish that he would just slow down a little. Each stage seems to pass too fast and I just want time to soak it all in.

We spent a good chunk of our day outside so far (we are inside taking a little rest). Graesen wrote with sidewalk chalk (while spelling his name to us-he is getting so good at this!), rode his tricycle, went for some walks, played in the sand, played in the sprinkler, and played in the new (free off of craigslist!) playhouse my mom found for him today.
