Much Needed Update...





The above pictures are of the medications I am taking to get the job on my ovaries done :) It's an overwhelming thing to look at all of that and figure it out, but I'm doing it. I started my "big" shots last Thursday. They are not one of the better things I've ever done, but it's all worth it. Brandon has been great about giving them to me. He enjoys it, which makes me a little uncomfortable. Dawn and I both went in for our "checks" today. My body is reacting well to the stimulation. I have 10 great follicles on the right ovary and 8 on the left. The nurse is guessing I should be ready for retrieval on Monday-two days ahead of schedule!!! Dawn looks great too. Her lining is nice and fluffy :) and ready to make a perfect home for our babies, once again ahead of schedule! We make a GREAT team! I am so excited and in complete awe at how God is putting all of this together. It's really mind blowing.
In other news, my fantastic Aubrey got a perfect score on the Reading/English portion of her TAKS test!!! For those of you not in TX, TAKS is the standardized test they give to students here, the equivalent of LEAP in LA. Her teacher called to give me the news this afternoon. I seriously could not be more proud of her. She'll take the next portion, Math, next month. My girl rocks!

Awesome news Heather. Way to go girl. Those ovaries are cooperating! Congrats on the early retrieval, that's so cool. God's timing is so perfect isn't it? :)
