Things are going good!! We went to Rocky Mountain National Park today, probably our last time as a childless couple. As you can see it was still snowy in areas, and Trail Ridge Road is still closed, but we had fun anyways!! Aliy even walked all the way around Bear Lake!! (approx. 3/4 of a mile) Walking and exercising seems to be doing her good, as hard as it is. It takes her longer, and takes more energy, but she feels better throughout the day and sleeps better at night. At her last massage, the doula told her she needed to be doing more light exercising and stretching to loosen her hips muscles.

Riley is still a little maniac!! He doesn't move quite as vigorously as he has been, but just as often. He's settling into a sleeping pattern, being awake and active usually around 10, 1, 6 and 9 throughout the day, and at least around 3 in the morning. We are hoping to get his room painted this week, and then get everything set up and organized for him soon after. We've decided on a pale green to go with the Safari theme. (that way if Aliy decides to do a mural this summer - if there's more time - the grass base is already there!) But we are still arguing over window treatments! We just know that we need something to block the light - the window in his room is on the East, and is VERY bright in the mornings until at least 11, which also makes the room very warm.

Aliy has another appointment this Wednesday, and hopefully Cam will get to come too. Then in May we start 1-a-week-ers. Aliy also only has 3 Weeks of classes left - yeah!! - and then Finals the 2nd week of May. Let's hope Riley holds out until at least then!!
