Looking back on 2011

2011 brought our family lots of hope and lots of heartache.. For the most part it was lots of waiting, rushing around and then more waiting. Then the SUCKFEST began for pretty much the entire last half of the year.. As I look back, I still have a bit of sadness and pain at the events that unfolded, BUT I have MUCH MORE hope going in to 2012 then I ever thought was possible! Inspite of everything, we are gearing up for another IVF cycle AND we are doing what I wanted in the timeframe I wanted= A Fresh transfer before I am 39! I am feeling so GO and SO BLESSED.. It seems like everything has just been falling into place as of late and I want to stop and be thankful for each little thing that is happening, no matter how small.. My sister in law and brother in law are in it to WIN IT with us and they are both so excited at the thought of us on this journey together.. We can't wait to head to TEXAS in about 6-8 short weeks and get things rolling! Of course I will be keeping you guys up to date, I don't know what I would do without ALL OF  YOU to lean on! I appreciate you all for reading our story and for all of the love and support you have shown us.. You were a HUGE part of the hope we felt in 2011.. And for that WE THANK YOU!

  1. I think you were the first person I didn't personally know to join my blog and I loved getting supportive comments from you. So 2011 was a great year for me since we got to "meet." I'm hoping that all the support you've given me can be returned and I can share a celebration with you in 2012 like the one you shared with me. Good luck and happy 2012!!!

  4. Michael- Your post made me cry, but happy tears! I found your blog through a friend of yours (no womb at the inn I think??) and from that first blog, I was hooked and had to go back to the beginning.. I sat and read the whole way through to catch up. You inspired me so much.. YOU STILL DO! I am honored to be supporting you on this journey and can't wait to see your babies born this coming year! I can already see how much you love them and what an amazing Dad you are going to be.. THANK YOU for being my friend and supporting me through my journey!

    Marissa- You are such a rock star without even trying to be one! I feel like we would totally be friends IRL! I love reading your updates and can't wait for you to defy the drs and the odds and have to bruising big ole baby boys! :)
