Start spreading the news...

I'm heading to New York City tomorrow to see a Broadway show that I've been dying to see. AF may come while I'm there. She and her stupid timing. Bah.

In the event that she holds off until I get back, I will indeed POAS. I am not going to do that today, because (a) it's Christmas and I'm in a good mood and a negative will sour it, and (b) it's Christmas and everything's closed and I don't have a stick to pee on.

I hope that everyone is having a superb Christmas. R2 was up at 5:30 (yes, five-thirty) this morning jumping up and down at the foot of our bed. R1 and I went back to sleep for a couple of hours after presents were open. I'm showered now (read: smelling much better) and getting ready to head to my grandma's for festivities.

On that note, I feel so very blessed to have both of my maternal grandparents for yet another Christmas. This is my 30th with them, and for at least the past 5, I've believed they were my last with them... Having them both here is nothing short of a miracle.

Merry Christmas everyone. Here's to our 2010 dreams coming true!

All I want for Christmas is a visit from my favorite Aunt.

CD35. Still no period.

I really wanted it to start early this week (Sunday or Monday) since I'm leaving for a big road trip on Saturday morning. Now I'm hoping it holds off till Tuesday or so when I'm back - but I doubt it'll happen.

Where is Aunt Flo? I figured she wouldn't want to miss Christmas!

In other news, our Christmas festivities have gone very well so far. Got to love up new baby Billy yesterday when he was still less than 12 hours old; got to love up my 5-month old Godson tonight... I've been inundated with babylove, and I can't get enough!!!

...And my not-so-much-a-baby-anymore has been very lovie lately too, so that's helped. He also decided after holding Billy yesterday that he most certainly is ready for a sibling of his own (not sure how this is different from the last 5 years when he's prayed nightly for a sibling, but he seems pretty confident that NOW is the time).

I love Christmastime. I love family time. I am totally in my element right now. I'm Cool Aunt L. :)j

Celebrating

I'm celebrating tonight with my friend Kristy, who gave birth to a healthy baby boy, 8 lbs 3 oz, 21 inches long, William Martin. They finally have their boy!!!

Today is a good day!

CD32

It's been a nice break this month, not having to worry, "are we or aren't we?"

After the hysteroscopy, we weren't allowed to BD until CD19. Chances of Oing that late and being successful are ridiculously slim.

So here I sit, CD32 (the exact length of my last cycle) and waiting for AF so we can get this show on the road!

I feel good about moving forward.

Back in the saddle...

I went to see my RE today for a post-op exam. As he expected, the alien he extracted from my uterus was totally benign. Nothing to worry about.

He prescribed Femara for me, as well as my favorite pre-natal vitamin ever, Natafort. It was what I was on when I was pregnant with Ryan, and I LOVED it. The vitamin he's had me on for the past few months was okay, but nothing like Natafort. I am very excited to be on it again!

So I'm on CD25 right now, anxiously awaiting my next cycle so that we can make our 2010 baby!

Feeling positive today!
