We took the kids to see my mom. Before we went I talked to Jenna. Told her Grandma looks very tired. I explained that old people sometimes get sick and Grandma wasn't going to get better. She didn't want to talk about it. I asked if she had any questions and told her she could ask me anything she wanted. She made my mom a picture of Disney on Ice. We are going to see it for Xmas.

My brother and his family (& in-laws) were over too. Jenna played with her cousin which was...

I am a single woman expecting a baby girl in January! I used a sperm bank to find my donor. For me it was important that my child will know the identity of her biological father so I narrowed my list of donors down to just open identity donors. This means that when my child turns 18, the sperm bank will facilitate contact between the donor and the child. Who knows if my child will want that, but I like the fact that the option is there at least.

If anyone else is considering doing...

Testing started today. I had another FSH blooddraw and a vaginal u/s. My doctor kind of made me laugh as he is talking about how it may be uncomfortable, and so on... Little does he know I have probably had more than my share of vaginal u/s. I think I had 6 of them when I was pg the first time round. I am a pro at these.

He checked both of my ovaries for follies and only found 4-5 on each. He said that in some one my age (I am 29) they would like to see about 7-10. Thoughts...

We go on our trip in four weeks. Ben is so excited he keeps asking when do we go.

This year there are 15 of us going. It should be a hoot to say the least.

After I ordered the tickets my SIL, whom I asked to go, decided that she and her DD wanted to go. The only problem is, I can't get any more tickets. There is still one left on the date but not for the same car as us. I feel bad but I can't get any more tickets for them to go.

Next year I'll ask...

Yeap, that's what we hear when we suggest that Erin goes peepee on teh potty now days.

She's had a couple of accidents due to holding it waaaaaayyyyyy to long. I'm sure she'll get it all worked out in time.

I had the day off on Veteran's Day (Nov. 18) and so we set up the crib. I LOVE the rainforest bedding & toys!! The crib is expandable to a toddler bed, and the dark expresso wood matches our bedroom pretty well. We also hung a green painting of hearts matching the rainforest colors, which I had bought on a fun trip to Miami years ago. Since it is so close to our bed, we look at it at night all the time, and my heart just melts thinking that Louie will no longer be inside me (where he is...

We picked Matt up from wrestling practice at 5:30pm, then took him to my parents house. He's spending the night with them to bring in and stack their latest load of wood, and to do an oil and filter change on his car...seeing as the car stays at dads until Matt gets his license in Feb. and a job.

We visited with them for a bit, then we went to Findlay and had supper at Denny's. We both got the Grand Slammwich and hashbrowns. Each of us could only eat 1/2 of the sandwich, so we...
