Lots of Updates! Stuck Between Braces and Potty Training

I've been continuing to get lots of things done.  My favorite thing lately that keeps me from blogging is reading "Game of Thrones".  I'm on the second book now.  Yes, I am a dork, LOL!  It really does take a lot of thought to read. So you end up reading a bit, your brain gets exhausted, and then you have to stop and rest the brain a bit.  It's so interesting though, so you keep coming back for more.

On the title front, Tommy peed on the potty today!!!!  Very exciting.  Liam has no interest in the potty, but Tommy is so excited and kept saying after dinner, "I'm a big boy!  I go pee pee on the potty"  I'm a big boy!"  What a cutie patootie.

Tomorrow Phoebe gets the top half of her braces in the morning!  She's so excited.  Of course she wants every color of the rainbow (and then some!) in her mouth, but I'm talking her down to two colors.  One on top and the other on the bottom.

Hope everyone else is doing well.  I'll be going out and trying to find out where everyone else is in blogland.

I'm pretty sure I cried the day I got my braces, good luck to Phoebe!

Hopefully Tommy can send some potty vibes this way!

Glad all is well!

Those books are THE BEST! I feel like i know all the characters personally. The 3rd book is the best if you haven't gotten there yet.

I have heard a lot about the Game of Thrones books...I might have to try them.

Hope the braces go well! I hear the first few days can be rough, but at least she's excited about it.

I can't decide if I want to tackle Game Of Thrones. Hmmm..

YAY for potty peeing. Robbie's managed to go at least NEAR the potty (yeah, I've been cleaning a lot of pee out of the floor) three times now. Baby steps!

Good luck on the potty training! That is great!

I loved the Game of Thrones series on HBO and now started reading the first book too. I can't wait!

My mother made roast beef the day we got our braces...so mean!

Love when you get sucked into a good series...what is it about?

It is funny how cool it is to have braces and glasses these days. For me it was the worst thing ever. But I am glad since my daughter will probably need braces and already has the glasses.

I started to watch the show Game of Thrones but didn't always have time. I will have to check out the books. Are they good?

And YAY for going on the potty! That is always so great!

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!"
