1. The terrorist attack was really sad to wake up to this morning. 2. We have determined that Mila is a stomach sleeper and it has made our nights much more restful. 3. Mila blew her first raspberry this morning! 4. We celebrated St Patrick's day later than usual so I have leftover corned beef, carrots, potatoes and cabbage for lunch, yum! 5. It's weather like what we have been having the last few days that makes me want to stay in So Cal. 6. I cannot remember to temp when I wake up to save my life. 7. Confession: I still check to make sure Mila is breathing to the point of getting her to stir if it's too dark to tell. 8. I am surprising MW with a long weekend in Catalina soon. She has been wanting to go and will be so very excited. 9. None of my shoes fit and I have come to the conclusion that after six months, they probably won't ever fit again. 10. I am addicted to a resale app and have been purging everything possible on there. I made $40 on a coat I only paid $14 for!
Edited to remove name of app because I don't know if it is okay to post it.
1. M had her two month appointment yesterday and it went well. She's 10 lbs 5.2 oz (30%), 23.5" tall (90%), and her head circumference is 39.5" (35%). Tall and lean. When the doctor walked in, M gave her a big smile.
2. Sorry in advance- being THAT parent. She can roll from stomach to back (doesn't do it often), notice and reach for a toy, and pick up her upper body during tummy time. But I guess these are more of 3 month old skills.
3. I made a vegetarian kale and hominy pozole for dinner last night. It was surprisingly pretty good.
4. Yesterday I finally started writing our thank you notes for gifts when M was born. I had been feeling pretty guilty it had taken so long.
5. CET has Friday off. I'm really looking forward to a long weekend with her! We just love it when she's home.
CET's
6. Some founders of a well, WELL known tech company just called wanting to talk to my boss about legal issues relating to corporate liability. This is particularly hilarious give that when he 'cuts and pastes' a document together, he actually uses scissors and tape, and instead of figuring out how to rotate a PDF, once just turned his laptop upside down to read it.
7. M's 2 month pics are so cute, you can already see how much she's changed from last month.
8. Her gummy baby smiles are the best! She'll sometimes do them on command for a picture. I'm sure she's just reacting to our tone of voice, but I can totally pretend she knows the word 'smile' already, right?!!?
9. I'm starting to get plane tickets for our upcoming travel. I miss it & can't wait to figure out how to travel as a family. I'm sure it will be more complicated, but it's really something I want to be able to share with M. She already has a travel-friendly car seat, her own Trunki, and quite a few aviation-themed outfits
CET & CAR - both 30, married Aug, 2013, together 12+ yrs.
TTC #1: CAR carrying IUI #1 & 2 - Clomid, trigger = BFN IUI #3 - Switched to Gonal 150iu. Overstim led to 'surprise' IVF. Retrieved 21, 14 mature, 13 fertilized, all 13 made it to day 5, 9 PGS normal. Transferred 1 AA hatched blast 5/1/15 Baby Girl M born 1-21-16
4. Life is seriously crazy right now. I'm really frustrated by how things are going.
5. Our anatomy scan is tomorrow. M is convinced that something is wrong so I hope this appt alleviates her fears. I can't believe we are 1/2 way already.
6. I have been running and working out more. I have a new yoga app I am using. And I got to spin class on Sunday because after 2 5 mile runs back to back my leg wasn't having any more running.
7. O is up. We are headed to the children's museum!

1. I went to the midwife today and I am 3-4 cm dilated. Squeeee!
2. C seems to think that this means that we are having the baby today.
3. If the baby is born tomorrow then DS wins the baby pool.
4. I'm headed to Accupuncture in just over an hour with the goal of helping things along
5. Totally unrelated, DS has an awesome progress report from school, they email them to parents directly so I'm not sure if he even knows. Yay!
6. I don't know what else to say.
7. I've been so absorbed in my own life today that I didn't even realized that yet another act of terrorism took place today. That makes my heart heavy.
1. Yay Witty!!! Let baby watch officially begin! So exciting!
2. We heard back from the church next door about buying our house, but they still didn't make an official offer. They are coming to "walk the property" tomorrow evening. We are preparing to list the house just in case. I'm starting to really stress...
3. Our mortgage broker sent us a list of a MILLION documents we need to send him. I need to sit with my computer later and put together some PDF docs.
4. Home inspection on the new house is next Monday.
5. Lucie's head control has vastly improved over the last few days.
6. Our house is currently being cleaned (and not by us!) - yay!
7. My mom and youngest sister arrive on Friday to meet Lucie. That's another source of stress. Big time!
8. I can't find the check my mom sent me for my birthday. I can't figure out where on earth it could be. I'm pretty upset about it...
9. Life feels very busy and stressful right now. Deep breaths required!
10. I need to go try on pants in a store. Nothing fits - I think I am in between sizes...
1. wittyandwaiting!!!! The baby's gonna fall out! No pushing required:)
2. Yesterday I got my first PP period:( WTF!
3. I feel cheated out of 5 months. I had it in myhead that I would get an entire year period free.
4. This morning R was having crying fit after crying fit. Why? Because his toy horses kept falling over and wouldn't stand up. Sorry kid. That's life.
5. R is now only nursing morning and night. MW is probably going to wean him off that within the next month to year, lol.
6. Liney cub woke up at 4am happy as a lark. I have no idea why he woke up but he was kicking and smiling. Meanwhile I was in and out of consciousness and tried pawning him off to my wife who was sound asleep. He went back down at 5.
7. With the amount of curry R eats, my next house is going to have a spice kitchen. With that I made a killer butter chicken in the crock pot over brown rice.
8. Tonight is Penne a la Vodka minus the vodka cause we're out. Go figure.
9. kh826, I meant to ask. You staying in the city or moving to the burbs?
karlamo - I already had a pp period, so shhhhhhhh! Haha And new house is in the burbs, but only about 15-20 mins out. Awesome school district though (which is reflected in the taxes ick!)
PP periods are the worst kh826. Using tampons after a vaginal delivery are kinda a joke right now. Things aren't right down there. **Secrets of vaginal deliveries no one tells you**
1. We're weing the play Stupid Fucking Bird tonight, I guess it's loosely based on The Seagull. Really looking forward to it!
2. Realized that I need to finish up my online real estate stuff for CA in the next few weeks bc they're running 6 weeks behind just to process applications for the test.
3. On that note, it's a good market and now everyone wants in. Lofl. They all think it's easy money and that is why so many (75+%) of agents fail and get out of the biz after the first year. This job is hard!
4. We have the to do list started to get our house ready to list in May. Handyman is coming Saturday to start on the exterior.
5. I need to get everything staged for pictures and then start packing!
6. I'm currently cuddling with both J and our dog, I love taking afternoons off.
7. Getting close to being nearer to my mom. I'm excited to be able to drive over when I want to visit.
8. I took some friends with me to pick up our wine club order on Saturday. We stopped at a couple other wineries and somehow I ended up coming home with 25 bottles of wine. Sorry not sorry.
9. I hope it's sort of sunny tomorrow so we can maybe go to the dog park.
10. Happy Tuesday to you all and have a great week!
Me: 31 Wife: 30. Legally married 2008, thanks CA! TTC #1 since 11/14 using donor sperm. IUIs Jan-Aug 2015 BFN Sept & OCT 2015 added Femara. BFN Saw RE December 2015.

I went with pads b/c I was only 6.5 wks pp. I wasn't even going there. I have had 2 large babies in the last 21 months. I may never be the same! (JK it's really not that bad -- I'm already starting to think about #3 for Fall of 2017 because I am totally off my rocker. My motivation for losing baby weight is to get pregnant again. I'm not normal. LOL).

#7 - S is 14 months and I still can't turn in without using the light on my phone to watch her for at least six breaths. I'm not sure at this point if it's something you ever stop.
