Ok the doctor's office called yesterday and told me to drink plenty of H2O and bring a video tape to the office Monday. I am so excited I can't even sit still!! Mamaw is going with me. What a day Monday will be- new job, and the first look at a new baby. I will keep everyone posted. Pray-Pray-Pray that there is a baby in there. I had a horrible dream that there was nothing there when we got to look. It has me scared, but I woke up this a.m. feeling quite nasty, so that made me feel better:) Bring on the sickness... Hurray for baby!

Ok- So I told myself that I would keep it to myself but I can't any longer. We are officially pregnant again! I can't even believe it as I sit here typing this. This was our first medicated cycle with a new drug combo, and it worked! We have our first ultrasound on Monday. So, here is how the story goes- after five negative home pregnancy tests I went in for blood work to move on to the next medicated cycle. My beta came back not at 0 (which would be a negative pregnancy level) but at 27.9 (which is an incredibly low positive). I was so low that only the first response test would pick up a faint little line. We were really scared because the level was so low, and thought that we would miscarry again. I have been going to the Dr every other day since then, and my levels are now right where they should be. That little baby did a lot of catching up!! So now that the numbers are up we should be able to see this little thing on Monday. I want everyone to pray-pray-pray that everythi...

Ok- so I am taking a new job at another ICU. I am totally pumped to be getting out of ECM. I also will be saying goodbye to night shift life. I am not upset about that at all:) It seems to be taking an unnecessary toll on me these days. Both mentally and physically. I will be working seven on seven off -evening shift (2pm-12am). So from now on I will sleep when everyone else does. On another note, thank God for flea bombs. We bombed the fleas to death! I am so glad, I was getting so paranoid that fleas, their eggs, and their larva were on me at all times, LOL. So, life continues to look up. This cycle was a total bust when it comes to baby makin, but life has been treating me so well I can't complain about that any today.

So... anyway, I have to admit things have been going okay here. Went out to Handy Fest to see the Velcro Pigmies and had a blast!! That entire weekend was pretty great actually.  This past week has been a lot of waiting. I still have a week left to go before we will know if any of this new medicine I am on worked or not. I don't think that it did actually. But, we'll see I guess. Other than that nothing much has happened all week. Unfortunately my granny still isn't doing very well at all. I know that it won't be long until she passes away. I sat with her for about two hours today. I think that she knew that I was there.  My 17 year old dog spots died this week though. But geez,  17 years- that's a freakin old dog!! Daddy buried her out at his work, in a pretty spot under a nice tree. My Chihuahua spike has an infestation of fleas. I have no idea why since he never leaves the house. I have been trying to get rid of them for three days since like ...
