Ahhhhh...........

A brief sigh of relief as I have a whole 15 minutes or so to finally sit down and relax for a bit. Then its carbo load time (minus of course the best part of Italian food...bread and cheese), then get to bed as early as possible. We are flying out super early in the morning and this is my important night of sleep. Too bad I'm not leaving much time for it. I'm not excited yet, but I'm not as worried anymore either. I'm just too wound up from work right now to really have much thought about it at all.

I will say though that my time spent last night after work was absolutely fabulous! I finally got to meet Jessica Anne and Sarah Grace. I brought dinner to Lisa and her family and got some serious baby time. I think I'm in love. Sarah and Jessica are absolutely beautiful. I got to spend over an hour last night with the two little angels asleep on me. At 6 lbs each, they feel like feathers when you hold them, and I'm still not sure I even believe they weigh 6 lbs! My niece Bennett was under 7 lbs but still way bigger than Sarah and Jessica. They are definitely the smallest babies I have ever held. They are soooo tiny, yet sooo beautiful. Lisa is looking amazing too. She had quite the awful day yesterday, but was still in very good spirits when I arrived. I'm amazed at at what good job she is doing - already an old pro at the mom thing. I cannot wait until I get to see them again. I told Lisa I had a real nap with the girls on the schedule for sometime very soon.


Tomorrow morning we are flying to Las Vegas then driving the 130 miles to St. George, Utah for the race. Sunday night we are going to stay in Vegas before heading back to Houston. I've never been to Las Vegas before, so it should be fun. The weather for the race is still looking iffy - not exactly the 35 degree clear dry start and 50 degree clear dry finish I was hoping for, but there isn't much I can do about it!

Ironman in verse

This is what I wrote and secretly put under everyone's doors tonight: The big day is almost here! Long it will be, but have no fear. You have put in miles and miles And will finish amidst numerous smiles. The hard work is over and done. Now is the time for nothing but fun. May your spirits be high throughout the day, And may nothing come along to stand in your way. Ironman is as much about the journey as the destination, And you will be rewarded for all of your determination. Hand-in-hand we will all jump in, Eagerly treading water as we wait to begin. At 7am the cannon will blast But be sure not to go out too fast. The cool water will run over your face, As you are now committed to the race. The Rural Bridge will seem so far away But keep those negative thoughts at bay. Once you turn around and head west To the Mill Ave. Bridge you go, trying your best. 2.4 miles will be over before you know it, And you will start to realize your thoughts of Iron are truly legit. On to the bike, f...

Still here. Still infertile.

Sigh.  Here we are again.  We knew all along we would be able to start the process for baby #2 when Sloane was nine months old.  I had said we did not necessarily want kids that close together, but knew just because we started then did not mean we would get pregnant then.  If I had only known how true that is becoming.  Silly us had started having visions of three kids.  The only way we can have three kids is to have things go smoothly, not lose embryos, and not lose time.  Well, so far we have lost an embryo and a lot of time in the quest for our next baby. I breezed through prep for our transfer in early May.  The stress load was so much less than before because I thought we had it figured out.  We had Sloane as a great distraction.  My lining was better than it has ever been before - by far.  Then, the day after Mother's Day, I found out it did not work.  And I was immediately thrown back into the depths of infertility hell....
