Egg Fertilization Update

I'm back to civilization. We were at my in-laws all weekend starting on Friday night after we picked Phoebe up from her theater workshop. I have more good pics from that later today. Leo's remodeling his parents kitchen and they went all the way to pulling down all the drywall and redoing electric, so my MILs computer was shut down and covered with sheets to protect it from drywall dust. She uses it for her embroidery machine that she does a lot of work on, so it had to be protected. So I've been away from the Internets all weekend.

The final verdict was that they took 10 eggs, 7 were mature and 5 fertilized. That was Saturday's report. On Sunday the message I got was that they didn't want to open the incubator and they were going to wait for Monday morning at 8 AM, when they will look with the doctor and then call me to schedule a transfer time for Monday. So it looks like the day will be today. Hopefully all 5 embies are looking good. At least three, because I believe that's what he'll transfer.

Bad Dreams Go Away Magic Spell

Wow! Two posts in one day!!! I just had to blog about this. Indigo Girl had posted about her daughter having bad dreams and looking for advice. I had to post what we do in our house to keep away bad dreams. I have to admit it was one of my most brilliant mommy moments as I pulled this one out of my a$$ when I came up with it. When Phoebe was about 3 or 4 years old, she started complaining about nightmares. I knew it was half true and half stalling for bedtime. She has always been very into witches, wizards and spells (heck she was named after the character on Charmed and my due date was Halloween), so I came up with a magic spell on the spot to keep away bad dreams. I figured all it had to do was rhyme. I will share it with you all and feel free to try it if you need it: Bad dreams, bad dreams go away In Phoebe's dreams she must play She should dream of ice cream and cake Until the morning when she wakes She loves it! She still asks for it sometimes if she's had a ni...

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.

Stopping the Voices in my Head - aka Mastering my Mindset

The more I work on my personal development, the more I realize I need to stop listening to and changing the negative things I tell myself in my head. I'm also noticing the older I get the more the negative things I hold as beliefs about myself are not true. This reinforces that I should second guess the other negative beliefs I hold inside ... maybe those are not true either. Here are a few things I've realized are not true: I need help to put air in my car tires - This was one of the first things I learned as my husband had to move to Colorado for work. I did this at the Wawa up the street where the machine will stop and beep when your tires are at the right pressure. I also learned and committed to memory that the pressure you want your tires at is inside your gas cap, something I have to open at least once a week. This was something that was super easy to learn to do and had me zipping along the roads in a few minutes without the anxiety...
