Trouble TTC

So....what did you get??

I see that some of you got the ever elusive BFP for Christmas!  Congrats to yall! 

 What did everyone get as far as material gifts go?  My biggies were a Tiffany necklace and an HTC Evo (still trying to figure out how to use it!!).

Re: So....what did you get??

  • Well from my family I got alot of cash and gift cards.  Which is great.  DH and I can get some things for the house: wall art and other decorations.

    DH got me Reebok Shape Ups got them white so I can wear them at work (wore them grocery shopping yesterday, love them).  He also got me a new iPod since my old one doesn't hold a charge anymore and some cash.  I need some new workout clothes. 

    We had a relatively light Christmas since we bought ourselves a gift in July...a new roof!

    I've been thinking about getting some of those!  I'm just so clumsy I'm afraid I'd be falling all over the place!!

  • I got garnet butterfly earrings.  An adorable hat.  A frame.  And some nice gift cards toward my new fridge.  So excited about that!!

  • My best gift was from my in-laws.  A Marc Jacobs diaper bag which sort of upset me at first given all our troubles, until I opened the card inside the bag that had a check for $20,000 for IVF.  I cried my eyes out.  We are 100% out of pocket and have been so stressed out about what we were going to do if our IUIs don't work.  Now we can relax and hopefully be able to give them a grandchild, (my husband is an only child).

    I know, I debated about even posting it because I didn't want to be braggy, but I knew you ladies would get it and I have to tell someone!  They live very comfortably and have always been generous with us, (they paid for our destination wedding), but I certainly was not expecting that when I was opening my gifts.  I was overcome.  I am so thankful.  Hopefully my body will cooperate this year!
