Fall 2009 updates

Back in July - Mark and I had an appt to go back to the Fertility Clinic to try and have another baby.  So August was filled with a lot of appts and bloodwork and then in September we were ready to have an IUI - unfortunately that one didn't take, so it was try, try again.  The end of September I went back on meds to try for an October IUI.  In between that and the IUI's, we took a mini-vacation up to a cabin in Door County, just the two of us.  We haven't been away from Jack since he was born.  So we definitely needed it.  We missed Jack like crazy, but it was what we needed as a couple.

So then comes the IUI's..we had those the weekend after. Oct 11 and 12.  2 weeks later, on Oct 23, we found out we were pregnant with our second miracle!!  It was definitely the best present I could've asked for, for my 30th Birthday!  Soon it was Halloween and Jack made the cutest Scarecrow!!  I was a witch and Mark was a pirate.  Quite the Motley Crew of costumes!  Auntie Jessica had a Halloween Party but it was so cold Jack didn't participate much.  and no Trick or Treating either..it was frigid!

November didn't bring in much except the start of the holiday season.  Mark was working on Thanksgiving again this year, so it was just me, Jack and the dogs venturing up to FDL.  We had a nice time as usual.  Then we were back in town on Friday.  Ended up going into the city the weekend after but it was so mild and there were thousands of people there it was nuts. We couldn't enjoy what we normally would do, so that was kind of disappointing.  And with me being newly pregnant - I was so exhausted and tired all the time.
