This update is way overdue I know... we are now 9w5d. And I've been so tired, it's been hard to find the energy to finish this post.  #itshardgrowinghumans Well, last Friday the IPs and I were able to hear two sweet little heartbeats!!!! ❤️❤️❤️ They were so happy when they saw two little nuggets on the monitors... it was breathtaking to watch their faces. I was so mad that I didn't have my phone!!! I wanted to video their responses... but I failed! Lol.  I love getting to spend time with them, they are genuinely good humans and I'm so thankful God brought us together for this. I'm not super struck w nausea, but I do get it in waves. I'm thinking the hormones I'm still on is what is helping but I dunno... for sure no scientist in this. But I'll go w it. Hopefully I only have 1 more week of hormones and pills to take! :) My cravings have changed tho. They seem to change weekly... what I can remember from previous pregnancies is I loved salads and fru...

This post is titled, more time. because i wish i had more time.  Couple things you can be sure of when you're reading my blogs: i don't lie i don't sugar coat things i don't tell you every detail because - well - i promise you don't want to know the weird stuff.  I don't care about capitalization. and spelling is sometimes an issue. but if i use the wrong word or leave out a word you can bet that was an accident bc that annoys me  i can be honest to a fault, which means sometimes, i may overshare. :S whoops i am an overachiever. i'm trying to come to grips with this So apparently my post of "Whoooooooooooooo's having two!" got  deleted . no idea how... and i'm so bummed. i loved that post. That was where I shared that 2 embryos took!! I had over 1500 hits on that post alone! so, if you were looking for it, i don't know what happened, be sad with me - promise it was not purposeful. but for you to know, we are having two (as...

little of this, little of that...

so I keep thinking of things to blog about! so I thought I’d do a little post until I have more substantial news to share. But here’s some updates on what’s happening around me. my levels are all moving in the right direction! So that’s a good sign. Almost immediately, my jeans didn’t fit, but of course, that does nothing to help me have clothes that fit and are comfortable. So I just feel large and in charge – because let’s also be honest that all these hormones got me sassy and easily irritable. To that point, if I have offended you over the last several weeks, I’m sorry. And I might as well make apologies if I do offend you in the future… I’m weaning myself off caffeine the best I can. And this SUCKS. My eyes are SO MUCH BIGGER than my stomach. I’ve been ravenous lately (morning sickness has not kicked in yet) and when I eat all that food that I think I want, I’m miserable bc there’s just not room for things and, my stomach is just not that big. I lost a ton of weight in...
