Wow! The comments, emails, facebook messages and support y'all are sending is amazing! Thank you so much for all of the prayers and kind words. We are feeling the love! ....and I'm feeling the pain from these shots! Not really, they aren't that bad. Although, the Menour, that little sucker burrrrrns!
Excuse my shorts, I was wearing my pjs ;)

Not sure if you can tell, but the long picture on the left, there is a whelp.... that's Menopur for ya! The other pictures are just showing the redness, irritation and mini whelp from the Lupron and Gonal-F. So far, I feel like I've experienced only a few side effects. With just the Lupron injection, no matter how hot it was, I would get chills! We were at a cookout and I was melting from the heat and humidity, yet I had chill bumps. Friday at work, I cried about 5 times. And I'm not talking eyes tearing up, I'm talking full on TEARS. Running down my face, uncontrollable when they would start and unstoppable. A few things happened that prompted them, but normally I could have just let it roll off my shoulders. Not that day. I have still been tired, but not the absolute exhaustion that I was feeling last week. Praying that the next 3 days at work are not a repeat of Friday!

Today's post is what my girl Jessica Simpson calls a "two-fer." A two in one. So to finish it out....

Today is our 2 year wedding anniversary. Can't believe how quickly time has flown by! Our wedding day was literally the BEST.DAY.OF.MY.LIFE! I LOVED our wedding day. I knew there was no better man in the world for me and so I was not nervous one bit. I couldn't wait to get to the end of the aisle and become Mrs Graham Vance Byrum, III. I never thought I could love my husband more than I did that day. And I was wrong. We haven't had the easiest first 2 years of marriage, but it has brought us closer together and yes, made me love him more. I know God handpicked him for me. I can't imagine going through what we have the last 2 years with anyone else. He has been right by my side through all the ups and downs. And there were some major downs. [Kip has had a hard time with the miscarriages as well, but he says it is harder for him to see me so upset. Since they were so early on, he hadn't had the bonding time yet that only the mother gets that early] What man recognizes that his wife is so down that she hasn't been shopping and he MAKES her go, and goes along with her because he knows a little retail therapy will at least release some endorphins temporarily?? That's my Kipper. Always trying to make sure that I am okay and that I am happy. We laugh together and at each other. We have built our relationship stronger through faith and built our faith stronger through each other. I have never smiled so much in my life until I met him. I am so lucky that he was raised to be as sweet, kind, caring and thoughtful as he is. I thank God every single day for blessing me with him. I love you so much Kip Byrum. I can't wait to spend many, many, many more years with you and I can't wait to see you be a dad. I know you will be just as wonderful (if not more) of a dad as you are a husband
