I blame it on the weather...

My blogging has been slacking lately, but I blame it on the weather. It has been really nice around here lately and the majority of our days have been spent outside. Also, Brent was on vacation last week so that kept me pretty busy too! Although I have been slacking on the blogging, I have NOT been slacking when it comes to my wonderful AdvoCare or my new love of Shredding! I will talk about all that stuff in another post. But for this one here are a few pics I have taken of the kiddos this past week.

This first one is really cute to me because really, is there anything cuter than a baby in a box? Really? I hate that they are bending these things out of shape and that they are pulled out of the shelf and laying around all over the place, but it does entertain them to sit in here and be cute. So, I will let them win this one.

And here is one of the many projects we have been working on outside! We have a garden again. This time it's a little more manageable (if you remember my garden in the past :() Anyway they have promised to help me keep this one alive and they ask me every day if they can go see if our carrots have grown any. We didn't even plant carrots! Lol. 3 year olds are pretty funny. :)

My Pregnancy

Feb. 22, 2008 - Positive Pregnancy!
Feb. 28, 2008 - TWINS!
14 Weeks - Cervical Cerclage
24 Weeks - Admitted to the hospital for 3 days -Pre-Term Labor. Sent home on fetal monitoring and terbutaline pump. I have to monitor for contractions once a day and send the readings in for review. The terbutaline pump in a cathater in my leg that sends a contiunous flow of "anti-contraction" medicine into me. Complete bed-rest!

Babies Born October 3, 2008!!!

5 Years of Infertility

Brent and I had dated for years - since my senior year of High School and were finally married on September 27, 2003. We had been together so long that we decided we would start a family immediately. Things turned out to be a bit more difficult than we planned. After many years of trying and medical intervention I was finally diagnoised with Endometriosis in Feb. of 2007. My disease was severe - stage 4 and had spread to my liver. After having exploratory surgery Dr. Cook thought that my ovaries and tubes were capable of functioning properly enough to produce a pregnancy but with the hostile environment inside of me I would need lots of help. We began Lupron therapy that would last 6 months as a way to try to "kill" off some of the endo. When the 6 months was up we began rounds of Clomid with IUI (Intra-Uteran Insemination). We did 2 cycles of this with no result. Our only other option was IVF which we decided to begin in January of 2008. After carefully following the treatment schedule of meds. and shots we had 14 eggs retrieved on Feb. 5, 2008 and of the 14 eggs 6 fertilized and became embryos. On Feb. 8, 2008 Dr. Gill transfered 3 of the best of the embryos. Two weeks later (Feb. 22nd) MaryLou called with the good news that my pregnancy test was positive!!!
