I think my engine is overheating or have air in the cooling system?

If my engine is at about 205 when I park, if I turn off my car and leave it for about 5 minutes, when I come back and start it, it will usually be about 215 or so. Basically, noticeably hotter after turning it off and back on. Is this normal? 2005 Dodge Durango 3.7 with 135,000 miles . Water Pump and thermostat are new.

    That sounds good. When parked, the coolant is not circulating, and gets hotter before it starts to cool off.
