Unbelievably Hot!

I can't believe how hot it is! It turned into August right after spring. We've got temperatures in the mid to high 90s. But we're having a good weekend.

Yesterday was a very busy day. Phoebe had a playdate with her friend Isabelle in the morning. We took the girls to the library (nice air conditioned), the playground (unbelievably hot), and then to have some lunch. Then we went back to their house and let the girls play dress up a little bit. We had to run back home and get ready to go to the neighbors. The twins next door that are Phoebe's age had their 5 th birthday party. Thank God they had a pool. Everyone was either in the house or in the pool. We opted for the pool. It was fun to watch all the kids playing in the pool. It was one of those calm, happy moments. The way you wish things could always be with everyone playing and happy. Tom and I went out for dinner after that with some friends.

I think AF will be coming soon. I can feel it. If she comes in the next few days. It will still be very early. We'll see what happens.

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...

Here's Phoebe's 5th Grade School Picture. I really like her in red or bright colors. She's definitely becoming quite the little lady.

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!"
