Wanna Hear Something Funny?

So, I go to the ob/gyn last week for the first time since leaving my fertility Dr. My husband and sis-in-law went with me...so sweet :-) When I was called in for my ultrasound a sweet girl named Carla introduced herself...then her and Joe saw each other and started hugging. Then it clicks....I know Carla...I met her 10 years ago when Joe and I started dating. You have got to be kidding me...I am getting a vaginal ultrasound from a girl that fooled around with my husband..LOL...what a small world. After she left the room I asked Joe, even though I knew already, "Didn't you fool around with her?". My sis-in-law is laughing in the corner and Joe is squirming....it was pretty funny! The ironic thing about the whole situation is that just a week earlier we were hanging with some friends talking about the old days...I was talking about how every time I went to a bar with Joe when we first started dating we would run into a girl he had "hooked up with"....and now...we run into them at the gynecologist! I bet no one else can tell that story :-)

Friendly Rivalry

After 6 long years Bama finally beat Auburn!! This Saturday, number 1 ranked Bama beat Auburn 36-0!! For those who don't know, Auburn is Alabama's biggest rivalry. Well, a neighbor of mine happens to be an Auburn fan which has made walking out my front door every year very entertaining.

It all started 3 years ago. The morning after Auburn beat Bama I walked outside and found a stuffed tiger on my car (Auburn's Mascot). I had no idea who did for a few weeks and then my sweet, quiet, petite neighbor Amy, fessed up. I was in shock and very impressed. The following year I walked out to a driveway covered in chalk art, Auburn's symbol, for all to see. And last year, an Auburn shirt hanging from a tree in my front yard.

Well, this year was my year! Undefeated Alabama beat the crap out of Auburn! After the game, around midnight, I dressed the tiger in the Auburn shirt and headed down to my neighbors. I love friendly rivalry!

P.S. I truly felt bad for the tiger :-(

When Will I Sleep??

Well, we found out today that we are having TWINS!!!! I still don't even believe I am pregnant and now I find out it's twins!!! This is insane!! So many thoughts are going through my head! Do they share the same room? Will they sleep at the same time? Will we ever sleep?

Pampered Chef and Pampered Amy

Saturday night I went to my friend Maria's house for a Pampered Chef party and had a blast!! Me, Jill, Maria and Gretchen all used to work together at Kodak and we used to have a girls night once a month. Well, due to kids and jobs the girls night has dwindled down to Jill and I every month with Maria being able to make it every now and then. So, it was so much fun to all be together again. I sat next to Jill on the couch and giggled during the entire presentation (sorry P.C. Rep.) We reminisced about our Kodak days which were GREAT! We have so many fun memories of our National meetings, flying together, staying together at hotels...I miss those girly days!

In addition to hanging with the girls, eating good food and buying kitchen stuff I was also Pampered by my friends :-) They bought me some congratulatory baby gifts which truly touched me. Gretchen bought me her favorite kids book 'Goodnight Moon', Jill got me a Williams Sonoma Kids Baking Cookbook (I LOVE cookbooks) along with a set of funny note cards, and Maria got me something for Joe and I :-) She got us a Penthouse board game, a sexy red outfit and........a little piece of clothing for Joe to wear that matches my outfit! I seriously lost my shit when I pulled it out of the bag...it is HILARIOUS!!! And I am sooo going to make him wear it! Thanks girls for a great night!

Well, it's been a fun week of gift getting :-) Considering I thought I would never get pregnant, it is pretty amazing to be given a baby gift...so unbelievable! The first was an outfit that I bought for myself (for baby) like I said I would. After crying for half the day after the good news, Joe and I went and had lunch where we kinda just sat in shock and happiness and then I raced over to Kohl's and bought one gender neutral outfit. That night my mom and dad came over with treats for the dogs and a treat for baby. My mom got me 2 of the cutest outfits!!! Of course they have animals on them because my kid will be surrounded by pets!! The next day my friend Karen invited me over and gave me a set of baby animal books, a rattle and told me she was pregnant!!!! And, last but not least....Joe surprised me with diamond earrings tonight!!!! They are beautiful!! How freakin' sweet is he?? He said I deserved them for everything I had gone through to get pregnant :-) Thanks Joe...I love you!

My awesome earrings!!!

The outfits my mommy bought me...they're sooo cute!!

The cutest set of books and a rattle that my friend Karen got for us!

The outfit I bought the day I found out I was pregnant!!

So Far So Good

I still can't believe I am pregnant...it doesn't seem real. I went to the Dr. today for a second blood test and my hormone level more than doubled to 660..just what it was supposed to do :-) I go next week for my first ultrasound and will know for sure how many babies there are! This is freakin wild...totally unreal!! And on top of all this craziness....one of my very close friends just told me she is pregnant too...she is 3 weeks ahead of me! Congrats Karen!!!!!

SHUT....UP!!!!

I AM PREGNANT!!!!!! This can't be real. Never , ever, ever did I think I would hear those words!!! 6 years and I have never had a positive test!! There is hope for EVERYONE with infertility!!!! This is freakin crazy!!!!! The Dr. said that my number was pretty high (309) so it may be twins!!! I don't even know how to process this all!!! I am so going to Target and buying baby shit for us...not for someone's baby shower :-)
