Thanks gals!! Have to say dh is a little jealous tonight. I told him I was going to do the pictures and he made faces like do we really have to? Now, tonight he starts up with "well I didn't know you were going to take pictures with Aiden..." Maybe he'll want to go on my errands with me next time They took some cute naked pictures of Aiden today too in just a diaper so I can't wait to get those.

Off to switch the laundry and crash. See everyone tomorrow!!

LOL April- I did Puregon and on the puregon website the lady has this scotish/irish/english I dunno what kind accent. Anyways she says puregon so nobely, I thought it might be a good name for a cat. Perhapps I shall call our next two cats Puregon and Luveris....lol. Or maybe these names April, should be reserved for the babies they bring forth! lol

Mmm cherries!

Rach..You and Aiden look so cute in the photos! Very photogenic for sure.

Martie..Mel and I are trying again in August. Mel is on Lupron now and we are scheduled for the retrieval on Aug. 16th. Mel is going to carry with her eggies..apparently mine are shot. So here we go again!

Josee..Yes..Lupe would work! I don't know how to get the accent thingie on here!

Shawna..Have you ever tried Ranier cherries? They are super good..I think they taste like peaches..I don't like the taste of cherries. kind of.

ALana- What are you doing up so early?
The insomnia is starting to set in...
It gets worse...
I just ate a tomatoe and basil bagel (half) with chive cream cheese and a sliced of tomato on top. I am still starving.

Wow, I'm up first this morning..must be Shelly is too busy with little Danny to beat me to it. That and the fact I didn't sleep a wink last night worrying about everything. Every single cervix twinge set me off on a new bout of tears. I'm a total wreck today.

On a lighter note, Rachael those pictures are brilliant. Did they cost much to do? Did they take long? Aiden is so good in them I can see he could be in showbiz when hes older. Get him to come visit my DH when hes 18.

Jen, YAY for second trimester.

Shawna, when on earth is your beta??

Marissa, will you poas again this morning? I say you should, you might get a nice surprise. Post the pics of it so we can analyze it for hours.

Susan, you are NOT fat, you look amazing in your pics. You are all Phoebe bump and teeny tiny body. Do you have any stretch marks yet? I don't yet...but I'm touching wood as I type this!

Josee, woohoo for the meds hun. The cycle begins! (I'll be your personal cheerleader if you like, I have some good moves up my sleeve)

Heidi, when were you last in NZ with Stella? Or has she not made the trip back yet. I can't wait to take Reed back...it will be very hard to see him playing in all the wide open countryside though and drag him back to the busy city. Although, I do prefer to live in cities myself, I would love the option oneday of a cottage in the country or a ranch like Brenna's.

Morning everyone else. I'm off for my second Betamethasone shot today for Reeds lungs, those things HURT LIKE CRAZY!! I'm insanely tired too...I wonder if this is all just preparation for the sleepless nights I still have ahead.

Lol...okay so I thought I was up first but you beat me to it Susan. And yep, the insomnia is terrible at the moment. Its a combination of needing to pee every half an hour and freaking out about pre-term labour. I am having nightmares about it. It was kinda weird last night though, Barrack Obama was in last nights dream along with me and Reed! Guess DH has had CNN on the tv a bit too much lately!

Alana-
Barack is just telling you that everything is going to be ok.

Can you PM me your address? Good luck with the betamethasone shot. It must feel good to know that it's working to mature his lungs!! Plus I think I remember you saying you have seen him practicing deep breathing on u/s.

I am off to get my hair cut and highlighted for the last time in a while.
I am trying to see if I can get Amy's color and style(if i don't chicken out) but I will never have her petitie little face to go with the hair!

Susan, have a great appointment. And that tomato bagel sounds fantastic. Yum!

Alana, I am sorry you are so stressed out about all of this. I am glad you have a doctor that is doing everything to make sure that Reed is gonna come out of there with trumpets blaring!

Rach-those pictures are fantastic!

April-I like Lupron, not Menses. You could call your dog Trigger Shot too

Rainer cherries? They are the best! Really expensive though. We had a U Pick Em farm near by in Davis and they were the same price as the regular cherries, which was so cheap!

Gotta go into work early I will miss all of you. If something happens, someone text or email me.

Can't wait for my package from FedEx today!
