    After our BFN this week A and I were pretty bummed.... So when I came from work, A had planned a silly string ambush. It helped remind me of how much fun we have together, and how important it is to remember, that although we don't have a baby RIGHT NOW, our family is still perfect RIGHT NOW. It was a ridiculous, spontaneous and fun.... And it also required a BIT of clean up.

    Baby Hayden Frances born 12/20/14 at 11:11 a.m...  Our perfect little miracle.  Here's how we got here:

    My lovely wife:

    5 IUI's January 2013-June 2013- 3 Cycles with Clomid- BFN

    IUI #7- 8/21- Not monitored, 50mg Clomid- BFN

    September and October: Missed Cycles due to vacation and a Half Marathon

    IUI #8- Monitored and triggered on day 15, with one 23x18mm follicle- BFN on 11/19/2013

    December:  Moved onto to see an RE to make a good plan.

    IUI #9- 1/1/2014 Natural Cycle, BFP on 1/15/2014,  6W Ultra-Sound Reveals nothing in Gestation Sack... Natural M/C at 7W, 2/3/2014

    Hooray @AmandaG47!!!  I'm crossing fingers for twins myself - so cool to see your ultrasound pictures :) big congratulations!  Two for the price of one!

    Everyone else - great pics!  If I could find one of my cat I'd planned to post it but I need to figure out my newfangled Galaxy S4 and try to get my pictures off my phone... she's a big, fat tortoise kitty and everyone always laughs when they see her and tell me how happy she looks.  Something about a fat cat looking satisfied all the time... well, I love her :) she's my furbaby.

    I know I have posted a PIP of her before, but this is our dog, Reese! Here she is sitting in her favorite chair at "Grandma's house" (my in-law's). She is a 4.5 yr old Pomeranian Fox Terrier. We have had her since she was 8 wks old, and we are just so in love with her. She is the best! :)

    Here's our baby, our big kid and our Catahoula Leopard.  The dog is making a move to lick the inside of the baby's mouth.  She wins.  She always wins . . .

    Sigh.
