Smile for the camera

I just had to put this picture up because it is so cute of Fletcher. We had a great time together! He loves his Aunt Ra-Ra.

Let the games begin!

All I have to say is, "OUCH!". I started my invitro shots last Friday and we have had to increase the shots each week. I am now at 3 shots a day. YIKES! I am not terrified of needles, but I am beginning not to be fond of them. Between the lovely shots Artie so lovingly gives me and the blood work bring drawn every 2-3 days, I am getting my fill. They say your mood changes drastically on these medications. You become something or someone that you never thought you would be. A little b-witchy, moody, and dare I say a nag. I think I really saw a difference the time the words - "You are eating TOO LOUD!", flew out of my mouth (because the "you shouldn't say that" filter is GONE). I keep reminding Artie that it is just the meds talking. I wonder how long he will take that as an answer?!? Please continue to pray that this process will get easier. We only have about a week and a half to go and then the process is out of our hands. Dr. Kevin will have to do his magic then.

baby business

Artie and I have had a long 3 years trying to get pregnant. So after much prayer, time, and wonderful doctors, we will be starting IVF treatments in the next couple of weeks. We are hopeful and optimistic of the outcome. Please keep us in your thoughts this next month. Some of those drugs can be a doozy, so pray for Artie that I don't become "supa" CRAZY.

Hoffman Christmas

We went down the weekend after Christmas to celebrate with Greg and his family. We had a blast watching Fletcher be his funny little self. He is nearly two and has the best personality. He kept us laughing the whole time. We had a great lunch from Rudy's bbq with all the trimmings. Presents were opened with Fletch being the biggest help by ripping your package open for you and yelling "OH". We only went down for the day, so by 4PM we were on our way back home. It was a short but fun trip! Will try to post a video with Fletcher playing football. Noice the moose sweater Aunt Laura bought him.
