Dx: Hashimoto's Hypothyroidism After 2 years TTC & failed IUs,we have our IVF baby born 9/24/11
LO#2 aka 'Miracle Baby' Orig. EDD= 9/28 EDD moved to 10/3/13
"Most of the important things in the world have been accomplished by people who have kept on trying when there seemed to be no hope at all." -- Dale Carnegie
"Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time." --Thomas A. Edison
Yep, first one. Normally my OB doesn't do them until 12 weeks, but my cycles were wacky so I get an early one to get a more accurate EDD. This is my first OB appt. in general actually, I've only met with the nurse once at 5 weeks to go over family history and get a stack of crap to read.
It's Ellie's Birthday Weekend Extravaganza!
Today I have to work until 2:30, then Ellie has her 12 month checkup with the doctor. After that, we're going to go to the store to get stuff for punch and candy for the goody bags for the party. Then we're going to take her out to dinner, then home to clean up the house.
Tomorrow it will be running around prepping for the party, and then the party at 4:00!
Sunday, I'm going to take some time to myself since it's Mother's Day. I think I'm going to go see Something Borrowed.
I'm off today! Yay:)

Ah so much to do.
Today: cook for tonight, go help set up for tonight at 2pm, finish my final project for my class and hand it in before 5pm (which may mean before I leave for the 2pm setup, ack) and then attend our wine tasting fundraiser.If I don't finish my project by then, it's not due til Monday but I'll have to mail it- mail a big 3 ring binder... I'd much rather deliver it in person, but the building where I drop it off closes at 5.

Monday: DISNEY. We leave for the airport at 4:45 am (ugh), flying out of Hartford and we're leaving my cat at my parents' house.

Saturday: any finishing touches on cake pops and cupcakes, weeding in the garden, working in compost, getting everything ready for planting next weekend. Then we have a graduation party
Sunday: being lazy, making scones and having mimosas, catching up on some blogging, maybe take the dogs to the dog park since it's going to be so nice.
Today: recovering from the shitstorm that was cinco de mayo in the ER. Making taco salad and rice for seis de mayo dinner with DH. Must find some margaritas.
Saturday: KENTUCKY DERBY!
Sunday: I don't think we have plans. MILs birthday is the 10th so we're doing dinner stuff then for combo birthday/mother's day. Maybe I can drag DH to the movies or something for shoulda-beena-mother's day.
Congrats to both my TTC buddies, Amberley18 and sb2006 on their beautiful babies!
Today: getting through our hellish afternoon court call without losing my mind; pasta con broccoli (first time making it!) and wine for dinner; movie night on the couch with the hubs until either he goes to work or I pass out (it's been along week!)
Saturday: get my butt in gear and finish baby shower projects day. I tried spreading them out over the week but I just didn't do them. At night I'm supposed to go to a co-workers birthday thing but don't want to so I think we're going to have dinner with the best friends instead.
Sunday: just hanging out with my mom for mother's day. We reservations in the evening to do the hibachi grill at a local restaurant which my mom is excited about. MIL has to work all day on Sunday so we're going to do something with her on Monday but Jay has made no plans with her so I have no idea what we're doing.
