I did it!

I finally broke down and did it! I sent my resume out to a friend today whose husband works for a competitor company and has some IT Project Management positions available. I've been living this hell for way too long. I need to get out. In a way, I'm not sure if it's just me, though. Maybe other people are OK working for a large corporation and getting lost in the shuffle, but I just can't do it. I seem to remember the days gone by when I exceled at everything and felt like it was all going my way, and I've noticed that was always at small companies. I've tried telling myself that I should stick it out here and use it to test my patience and stamina, but I just can't seem to do it anymore.

I get to leave work early today. There's a party at Phoebe's school that starts at 5 PM today. It's a Dr. Seuss party. She was so excited. She brought her favorite Dr. Seuss book, The Lorax. I'm amazed. We didn't ever really prod her to like one book or the other, but her favorites are The Lorax and The Butter Battle Book. So on her own, my daughter is becoming an anti-violence environmentalist. She's so much like me!!!! I'm so proud!

The Boys Are Here!!!

I'm trying to post this from the hospital Internet access, but I will be able to do this announcement better justice from home, but it is a very odd, but short birth story. They came so fast and furious there was nothing anyone could do. But the boys are in the NICU and doing well. They were born at 31 weeks 5 days gestation on 5/29/2009. I will post their names and information (no comments on names unless you like them, LOL): Baby A: Thomas Michael III born at 2:09 AM Weight - 3 lbs, 15 1/2 oz Length - 18 inches Baby B: Liam Jonathan born at 2:20 AM Weight - 4 lbs, 1.4 oz Length - 17 1/4 inches long Just a word on their health, Thomas's breathing is doing well and he did not need any help in that area so far. I had two steroid shots from when I was admitted until before they were born, so I think that helped. Liam was intubated and given surfactant when he arrived in the NICU and is now on CPAP, although he can't stand having the tubes in his nose. Both are under t...

IVF#2 - It Worked!!!!

OK all my Internet bloggy friends!!!! I'm pregnant with the best initial beta I've ever had!!! Could that mean multiples? We'll find out over the next week or two for sure. My initial beta was 660! I can't believe it! I'm so excited I want to cry. I was so nervous. I didn't want to test before I went there because of all the hcg boosts I had. And I was really starting to doubt if it would really work out or if I was going to have a major disappointment today. I go back on Thursday for a repeat beta and we'll see if we're doubling or better. Leo made a prediction last night of twins. I wonder if he's right. Of course we just want at least one healthy baby, but healthy boy/girl twins would be like winning the lottery. Of course we'll want to win the lottery to support them, but I'm like Scarlett O'Hara in that perspective - "I'll think about that tomorrow!"
