Re: Saturday check-in!!
1. Anxious. On day 8 of stims for IVF #4.2
2. Highlight- Seeing my follies growing on the ultrasound. Lowlight- I'm nervous that they aren't all growing at the same rate and I wish there were more of them.
3. Car shopping with Dh today since he needs a new vehicle. Picking up Dh's parents from the airport tonight since they are returning from vacation and left their car at our house. Tomorrow morning, another checkup at the RE. Then I'm heading to Champaign for the Illini basketball game and meeting my dad there. Unfortunately, the Illini haven't been doing too well lately.

1. Doing ok- 8 DAYS TIL DUE DATE!
2. Highlight: I had a little bit of bloody show Thursday morning! So now we're just waiting!
lowlight: the waiting haha
3. Weekend plans: working all weekend
unless baby bear decides to come 
1. How are you feeling? - Good!
2. Highlight/lowlight of your week? Highlight - spending time with a new friend!
Lowlight - ugh. My DH and my mom are arguing about my brother (he's a recovering drug addict and living with my parents, DH doesn't want me to visit them while he's there) and I ended up stuck in the middle. Also, there was some crime on our street this week that affected the whole block.
3. Weekend plans? - Taking one of our dogs to the vet for her annual shots and having dinner with some friends.
1. I am on anxiety overload; I feel terrible and my stomach is in knots. I am blaming the Reglan I was taking for my milk supply and I seriously hope this feeling subsides now that I am off of it.
2. Highlight: Connor turned 1!
Lowlight: The heat broke at our daycare and they were closed for 2 days
I had to take some time off work and it really set me back on getting some things done, which only added to my anxiety. On the bright side I got to spend some QT with the kids.
3. I am working a 24 hour shift at the hospital today. Yuck. Tomorrow I will be packing - my husband and I going to Las Vegas next week (I'm presenting some research at a conference but we plan to have a little fun too) so I have to get the kids ready to go to my in-laws for a week too.
1. Pretty good! I had a free birthday decaf mocha and an oatmeal from Starbucks today.
2. Highlight: My mom is coming into town today! Definitely the highlight. Lowlight: Still feeling pretty sick, especially at night.
3. Hanging out with DD this morning while DH is at a class at church. Need to clean the guest bathroom before my mom gets here. Going to see my mom's family tomorrow near Bloomington, so we're skipping church. Napping.
Wow - I can't believe you're almost there! Congrats and best wishes for a safe & healthy delivery!
2. highlight/lowlight of your week? Highlight-running outside with this global-warming weather Lowlight-my immune system finally breaking down
3. weekend plans? Today I am catching up on laundry, cleaning, and my DVR. Tomorrow DH and I are going shopping and then meeting up with my family for a birthday dinner.
Whitney- I hope your conference goes well. Thank you for the encouraging words earlier this week.
Happy Birthday! I didn't realize Starbucks gave out free coffee.
Right!? It's so crazy! Thanks for the well wishes! I hope you have a wonderful birthday and visit with your mom! And, as always (it's a little delayed, but) I love your picture! I must say, the Tupperware top hat has been my favorite to date
1. How are you feeling? All over the place! Excited to be here, terrified to be here, nervous about oh so many things...
2. Highlight/lowlight of your week? Our house appraised for more than we owe (were scared due to the real estate market) so we can go thru with our refi!!!
3. Weekend plans? Pretty lame- mostly laundry
-B
If you have a registered Starbucks card, they will give you a free drink on your b-day. Kind of awesome.
It's been great so far! And thanks - it's one of my faves, too!
Happy birthday! I keep meaning to register my card.. I gotta do that.
