Baby Making Day

I LOVE my nurse! Just like the hospitals, nurses do all the work and mine is amazing! I don't think that anyone else could make me feel more comfortable while my feet are in the stirrups. She is cute...chatty but not overly and always cheerful. Now we wait and hope that I miss my period...the injection went well...I have some spotting but that's normal (after all they are sticking a mini plastic straw thingy up there)....ahhhh now to stop thinking about it and relax...ha ha ha.

Smiling

Ah, so talking about my testing this morning...I got a smiley face...who knew a digital smiley face that I had just pee'd on could make me soooo happy! Tomorrow at 11am I will be making a baby! So excited!!! My friends at work are great too...they are equally excited and totally talking about feeding me till I'm obese when I get pregnant. lol...great more to work off after...

Tests

Started ovulation tests on Sunday! So far no smiley face but there will be one soon! I have to somehow pee on these things with my second pee of the morning (guess I'll drink lots of coffee so I'll have the urge by 10am--kind of an oxymoron considering that it's a diuretic) which ends up being at work....ohhh the stress. I also had a bit of a scare this weekend...Had some strange pains near my belly button...Thought it might be a hernia which would have seriously sucked but the doctor said it's probably nothing but he'll do some blood work to be sure it's not my pancreas or an infection but he doubts it's anything other than stress. I didn't even know I was that stressed...lol. Anyhow I am so relieved that it's nothing major and onward with baby making!

Spa Shower!

I finally have a shower and it is AMAZING!!! I chose a light blue...kind of a spa-like colour for the walls and we had bought a curved shower rod for a more spacious shower....and boy is it ever the best purchase so far! It makes the whole bathroom feel bigger...how strange. Ooooohhhh, my first shower in months was this morning and it was glorious! (oh I bathed!) We now just have the flooring to do (which we are going to look at tile this weekend) and then we can install the sink and some trim.

Shower with new tub surround and fancy double shower heads!

Beautiful new shower

curtain that coordinates perfectly with my sea theme!

Awesome glass starfish that I bought on sale at HomeSense. :)

Fishies from Cuba!

(they have fins but they're very loose and I don't want to lose them down the vent so I'm waiting for Ike to bring home some super glue)

Cycle update

Ok Peoples! I finally got my period last week and so it's baby making time! Well actually not this instant but you know..... I'll start my ovulation tests on Sunday and then when I get a smiley face to tell me that the oven is ready I'll let you know! My friends keep telling me that I shouldn't be so anxious and to stop thinking about it and it will happen....but it's really hard to not think about it when you have to track all these things and pee on sticks and the whole getting pregnant part...not as much fun as sex; having your legs wide open for a nurse with a syringe and that spreader thingy....lol....

Baby Bunny

Ohhhh....I got to hold the sweetest baby girl ever today! We order coffee for the restaurant from a lovely lady named Cindy (we call her coffee cindy) who had a surprise fourth pregnancy last year...she finally gave birth in February, I think. I've been begging for them to bring her by so we could meet their little bunny (nickname for baby while she was pregnant). So today they came by for lunch and coffee Cindy informed me that she was all mine for half an hour! Calli was sooo sweet, sooo tiny, and oh so snuggly in her little pink ensemble...made me want to cry...lol....

P.S. I still haven't gotten my period yet...sigh...just because I'm waiting for it, it's going to be late! I'm getting very irritable... :(

Hardly a Compliment

On thursday I decided to beat the box office rush for a friday night movie and went to Ike's school to print off some tickets. While in his office a lady came in..."hellloooo?"...so I turned around and greeted her...then fumbling over her words she finally asked me where my dad was....My dad?...She must've noticed my puzzled expression cause she finally asked in plain words where Ike was. I choked and then told her that he's actually my husband and that I had no idea where in the school he could be. "Oh", she says, "well I guess that's a compliment." What on earth lady?! Are you kidding me? A compliment? For whom? Me? cause I look twelve or for Ike cause he's a cradle robber? I could've slapped her.... Can you say DUH! (and she's a teacher)...
