Finn was conceived on 8/9/10...how great would it have been if I could have had my IUI today and then actually gotten pregnant today?  Alas, I'm only CD9, so no IUI for me.  I do have a monitoring appointment tomorrow morning, and will hopefully find out if my IUI is going to be on Sunday or Monday, as anticipated.  I'm definitely feeling the stretch in my ovaries, but still feeling anxious about tomorrow's possible results.  And finding it hard to believe how quickly the time between two week waits goes, while the two week wait itself seems to last for months.  How is that possible?

One of the best things about blogging is being able to complain about something and get commiserating comments in response.  I was at my wit's end the other night, and while I did feel better after just writing it all down, I felt even better with every comment that was made.  So thanks.

We've been gearing up for Halloween around here.  I've decorated the front porch, and have a ghost to add to it, as Finn is currently in love with ghosts.  He can't tell you what a monkey or a horse says, but does know what a ghost says. (That's not my yard or my ghosts - it's one of my neighbors.  And I'm going to have to steal their ghosts.)

Yesterday he and Nanny M carved a pumpkin, and tomorrow they're going to a pumpkin patch (a trip he'll be repeating with me in the next week or so!)  He also loves pumpkins these days (but to be fair, he'll kiss anything you ask him to...including my Gonal-F pen.  Yes, I asked my baby to kiss my fertility medication.  Is that weird?)

As of today, he only has one Halloween costume.  He does have 4 (or is it 5) Halloween themed t-shirts though.  I can't help myself.
