Happy New Year

I'm back at work from vacation and this year will be very interesting. Starting today, I will have two people reporting to me, so I'm a boss now! I'll never forget Phoebe's words when she found out DH was a boss, "Daddy has and boss and he is a boss?" Yes, sweetheart, welcome to middle management.

Also we'll be going back to the doctor's and I'm excited to get started on working to have a baby this year. Phoebe was playing with our friend's 15 month old daughter on New Year's Eve and it was so cute!!! She was very loving and age appropriate it brought tears to my eyes. We also woke up on New Years Day to our daughter and friends two kids waking us up. DH starting acting goofy with them as soon as they woke him up. He told me later how great it was waking up like that and that it reminded him of the things that him and his brothers and sisters used to do to wake up their parents on holiday time. Did I ever mention that my DH was one of eight kids in his family? It was nice to have this conversation and realize that DH really does want more kids, but hates putting the pressure on me because he loves me so much and hates to see me hurting. We both agreed that we would be over the moon if we could have boy-girl twins to have one of each quickly. We'll see what happens. A healthy baby is what we look forward to most though.

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!"
