I used to love doing crazy things like that with my hair. My friend was in hair school and used to use me as her guinea pig. I've had tons of crazy hair styles. LOL. I even used to cut my own hair and get compliments on it. I really need to go to hair school myself...sigh. But that's money that is not coming out of our IF fund. I tell ya! LOL.

Yeah Amy, where's our pictures anyways?! LOL

so I had jury duty yesterday. It was the first time I have ever been called. Did not get picked for the jury but it was interesting all the same. I will tell you that being pregnant, sitting in a small room with like 30 to 50 people (all waiting for the same case) for 3 hours is no fun. I had to go pee so bad by the end. There is nothing like someone telling you that you cannot go pee to make you have to go really bad. There were some strange people in the jury pool!!!

Lisa-I was never on b/c after my m/c's. Maybe it is an endo thing, like Shawna said?

Heidi- you are beautiful. I love the hair. You look Irish.

Susan-I actually typed that typo while DH and I were home at lunch so he could give me my shot. Incidently, there is a tiny red bump where he gave me the shot, unlike the big black and blue mark where the nurse did it! Anyway, I was typing fast because he had to go back to work but I needed him to buy me lunch first!

Oh, and he got the scallops (sea) at Wild Oats, so you know they are the good stuff. He only got 3 because he figured that was all HE wanted to eat!

Brenna-I will pass that info (1x a week) to DH asap!

Alana- Stop staying that your numbers aren't going up properly. As I explained last night, they really do look good. Did you get a beta today? Tomorrow?

Shawna-no pink hair!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You'll look funny pg with pink hair. Besides, most woman don't see anything until at least 12dpo. So put down the sticks!

Martie-jury duty does suck. I would have just stood up and told the room that I had to pee, then proceeded to walk to the nearest can. Sorry, but you are pg and shouldn't be made to hold your pee!!!

Amy-glad to hear that you and the crazy girl (just kidding ) made up.

April-glad you got out today. Now I want a cheeseburger!

I got my acupuncturist to squeeze me in tomorrow at 1pm. A implantation visit

Heidi - I love the hair color. You look beautiful as always! A real MILF

Amy - How did the day end with your co-worker?

Shawna - Keep poasing! We love the updates.

Jen - What's for dinner tonight? More shellfish?

Susan - You've got to sneak in another u/s. Sure you don't want to do the NT scan just for the freebie u/s? Tell them to only tell dh the results.

Seems I jinxed myself talking about two good nights of sleep. Hmmm. What a mystery this whole motherhood part. Two nights of great sleep, did nothing different yesterday, and yet not a wink of sleep. Doesn't work with my logical mind. Anyway, the only reason I'm able to type right now is I've got Aiden testing out his swing. I swear if he stays asleep in the thing for a longer nap than 30 mins then I'm forcing dh to go to babiesrus and buy us a dozen swings! Just kidding... maybe an extra for the bedroom and we can keep one in the living room. I tried out a baby sling today too like the hippies. Didn't work too great. I really need two hands to get anything done during the day. Anyway, before my complaining continues, here are some new photos from this week...

I think dinner tonight is chicken with mushrooms. At least that is what I was told at lunch. Dh is in a cooking mode, so I'm letting him run with it. I hope chocolate can fit in the after meal...
