Countdown begins!


Well, only 2 more days until we have our first sono.  Everyone keeps asking me if I want one or two.  At this point in our life, I just want "here and healthy"...whether that means 1 or 2.  I am just super excited it worked this time.  I have wanted all week to go get my HCG levels checked again to see if they are still high.  I am not very good with waiting, but I guess I should be by now.  Some things never change! 


This is a picture my sister took right after we found out we were having a baby.  My nephew Fletcher was in for the weekend, so he got in on the action too!  Grant was too worried about what was on the sign to look up!



Just one of me and Artie...the day before we found out.  Had to take it myself...the photographer never gets her picture taken!

And the answer is...

WE ARE HAVING A BABY!

Most of you know our fertility troubles these past 5 years. It has been a tough road of drs., drugs, and us down on our knees. I thank you all for your prayers!

Last Thursday, we went to Bedford to our dr. to put 2 of our eggs in. They were really good eggs and we were just hoping that they unfroze just as well. They did and got even bigger before they put them in. They grade them in quality by using A, B, and C's. One was a 5AA and the other a 4 BA. So a great size and quality!
We had a very smooth transfer and then I did NOTHING for 5 days. I started feeling bad this past Tuesday and just knew something was different this time.

We had to wait until this Sat. to take the blood test. My levels were really high and that could indicate multiples...but we will just wait for that one until I really see it!

Thank you for all your kind words of encouragement over the years...they have meant a lot!

We pray now that my appt on Monday shows doubling of my HCG numbers!
