Feeling blessed....

I'm feeling pretty blessed this weekend. I think we are going to be able to go ahead with IVF at the end of the month! My friends IRL (in real life) and some very generous blog friends have donated some meds to me! I can't even began to explain how thankful we are. Between what I have and the meds that are being donated, THIS IS ACTUALLY GOING TO HAPPEN :) A friend from high school was able to get meds for me also from a friend of hers. A LOT of different meds for a very low price. So much can change in a week. We went from being so sad thinking we can't move forward, to being blessed with these gifts from our friends...

We had a really busy (but great) Fourth of July weekend. A 30th anniversary party, a bbq for my Mom's birthday (Happy Birthday Mom!) and another bbq at my in-laws. Crazzzyyy busy, but it was good to visit with our family and friends.

A little update on the "seeds" situation. We actually saw our family friend this weekend and talked with them about the twins. We learned some more about the situation, but I think we are going to keep that information private for right now. Basically things are still uncertain, but we are sending them a picture and a bio/profile type of thing to read. Telling them about us and our story. So it's not a closed door, but not completely wide open either. Our family friend did say the babies are beautiful and have reddish hair and blue eyes. Like I mentioned in a previous post, I've still been getting crazy signs throughout the week, but I've been choosing to keep them to myself. And then there was this one this morning...

Turned on the TV this morning and a show on the USA network was on. What did I see right away? Twin girls. With red hair...

I see this the morning after I learn these girls have red hair and blue eyes? Hmmmm.

We are still not getting our hopes up though. We are just going to try to put it in the back of our minds and go ahead and focus on the upcoming IVF....

We feel hopeful right now. And that feels so good...

glad you have an ivf plan but I am still crossing my fingers about your 2 little "seeds"- so I guess I am crossing fingers on both fronts...

So awesome! Hope is SO important on this journey - it is what gets us through until our miracle(s) arrive!! I am SO excited you are going to move forward with IVF! Yay for all that support! And if those twins are meant to be yours, they will be. And if not, then there is a better plan out there for ya. When your baby (ies) are finally in your arms, it'll all make sense.

And I am SO jealous about your weekend - we don't have family near us, so we just stayed in our house all weekend. Bo-Ring!

Great news!! So glad you get to move forward and are feeling so positive about everything.

P.S- I will be in town the weekend of the 23rd. It is my sister's wedding so we will be in Little Falls instead. Not sure beyond that what our plans are.

Hope does feel good. And you two deserve to hope. What an awesome chapter to you story that these friends helped with meds. It takes a village, right?
