… my jeans fit again! I know you all were probably hoping for an update on our little embabies, but alas, nothing yet. Nothing except myself totally having anxious thoughts. If you hear beating, I can assure you that is my heart. Fortunately, we are getting to that point where my work is picking up […]

Phew, what a weekend! My egg retrieval procedure was Thursday morning bright and early on the other side of town. I was definitely tired {thank goodness I’m a morning person} but even more so thirsty since you can’t drink or eat anything for twelve hours prior to surgery.

Dear Baby C, I write this to you on the eve of the new year, the year we are praying we get to bring you home. This year has been full of so many ups and downs for me and your dad and lately, I have been nothing but a negative nancy just because I’ve […]

Dear Baby C, It is without fail that every year during this time, I lose track of what day it is, and even the time. As I’m sitting at my work desk I am wondering how it is only 1:30 and I have to be here for five more hours, even though it feels like […]
