Hi! A (re-) introduction

Hi! I was a member of this group from about 5 years ago, until the great divide happened (bump vs. pb), and I moved over to pb with the rest of the old group. I've been crazy busy raising my kids, but life has slowed down a bit and I miss having an on line community, so I'm back to say hi! I think there are only 4 or 5 people I recognize on here so I'll start with a brief intro. 
My wife and I were married in 10/09. We have two little boys (10/11 and 8/13) and I am 22 weeks pregnant with our third child, due end of April. We live in a suburb of Boston. I am a SAHM and my wife is a dean. Anything you'd like to know, just ask! I've been stalking here and there the last few months, but I figured it was time I say hi. Hope you all have a nice weekend!

We've been working on baby #1 since July 2013 using Open ID donor sperm. 8 IUI attempts with 5 actual IUIs and one chemical pregnancy. We have one fresh IVF cycle under our belts as well as a FET. I have endometriosis and a uterine septum that was corrected via surgery in November 2013.
