It's Twins!!

I'm so sorry I didn't post this yesterday!!  Darrell and I found out yesterday that I am pregnant with twins.  Everything looked good and Dr. McKenzie was happy with what she saw.  I am still really early, only six weeks along, so we are praying that both babies continue to grow and that we are able to see/hear their heartbeats next week!  It was a very emotional appointment.  My nurse, Barb, was in the room with us too and she was so excited.  She even came over and gave me a kiss on my forehead.  Dr. McKenzie and Barb have made this such an amazing experience and have made me feel so comfortable.  They both obviously know our story and have just really made us feel special.

Another exciting part of the appointment is that I am now able to take the progesterone shot every three days instead of every day.  These shots have caused me A LOT of pain and discomfort!  The shot itself isn't bad, but the pain, welps, and knots that come after it are unbelievable!  So that was good news too!

Thank you all so much for your continued prayers! 

Happy Birthday Addibelle!

Today our sweet Addi would be three years old...that just seems crazy!  I try to think about what she would be like now and I'm imagining she would be quite the sassy little thing.  She was always so sweet, but she definitley had some sass when she wanted to.  These days are always hard.  I can't help but wonder what she would be into now.  She would be talking up a storm, I know, and I wish we could have experienced that.

Kicked back and relaxed

This has always been one of my favorite pics--love her hair!

We cherish all of the time that we had with her and are grateful for all of the memories that we have.  I love that we have so many pictures and videos to look at and watch!  Love that little angel and we know that she is in Heaven just as happy as can be!  Love you right up to the moon and back Addi!!

Just hanging out

The Results Are In

Soooo, today I went to the doctor for blood work to see if I am pregnant and it was POSITIVE!! Darrell and I are really excited!! Many tears of happiness were cried today. To be honest, I'm still on cloud nine. We go back on the 28th to find out how many babies there are...one or two!! I'm still taking meds and they will continue for the next few weeks.

Thanks SO, SO much for all of your continued thoughts and prayers! So excited to watch God's plan unfold!

The Day is Here!

The day is finally here!  Saturday (tomorrow) I will have the embryo transfer.  After five weeks of meds, they will be implanting two embryos.  Our egg donor had her eggs retrieved on Monday, and we found out on Tuesday that we had 18 healthy embryos fertilized.  I was told the procedure will only take 15 minutes and that I'll need to be off my feet for the rest of the day.  I'll go in nine days later to find out if I'm pregnant.  It's hard to believe that we started this process at the beginning of November, and tomorrow is the BIG day!

We have had a great experience so far.  The doctors and nurses are wonderful!  They know are story and have been so supportive!!  Thank you so much for all of your continued prayers!
