News on the baby front... not much to report. Gary and I are now praying that 2009 will be our year. It really is scary going into another year unsure if it is "the" year. I am terrified to think
about the idea that 1 year from now...I could be sitting at my computer...reflecting back on my year and saying the words..."Gary and I are hoping 2010 is our year." I pray to God that is not the case. While I know 2009 will be busy and we will have a lot going on our desire to have a baby is stronger than ever! Being parents is our #1 priority and goal. I have recently been promoted at work and I am excited about it, and I know all too well that you need to live life for today, I cant help but wonder how my promotion will affect our efforts to have a baby. I will likely have to do more traveling and hopefully I can manage that schedule with any Dr. appts. we might have. I guess if there is one thing I have learned this year-- it is amazing what can happen in a year!
I am anxiously awaiting the holidays! I am so excited for Christmas this year-- it is almost ridiculous! Gary and I are traveling to CT for the holidays! We haven't been with my family for Christmas since 2004! That seems SO long ago! It was! 2005 and 2006 Gary and I spent Christmas alone in Washingt.on trying to make our own holiday traditions. I think in 2005 that equated to having a couple of the single sail.ors on Gary's boat over and for dinner- having turkey and ribs! ha! 2006 was really quiet...we made dinner and watched the movie The Fam.ily Sto.ne (LOVE that movie-cry ever time!). Last year, of course we spent Christmas with Gary's family. It was the first time I ever spent Christmas with them and I think for Gary-- it had been 8 or so years! It was nice. Watching our nieces open their presents was the highlight. This year though... YAY!! we will be with my family! Christmas eve is our big get together and I love every minute. I think Christmas day will be quiet! Just the way I like it!!
Oh... I was just about to sign off, but I have the TV on and on the To.day Show they are giving an update on the Cayl.ee An.thony case-- makes me sick. How could someone do something so horrific? There is NO doubt in my mind her mother had something to do with it. So I pose the question-- Why can a monster have a baby and we cant? Just awful. My thoughts and prayers are with those that actually loved and tried to protect that little girl.
That is all for now... If I don't post again before next week--
HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!

have a great christmas with your family, you deserve some fun time.
I too can't believe some of the women that have children and don't care and do horrible things, and then beautiful people like you just want a baby to love and it hasn't been easy. It's just not fair.
As for finding out 3 friends are pg, big hugs honey. I feel your pain, that's hard. My best friend and I ended up pg at the same time almost to the day but I lost my baby at 7 weeks then had to watch her go thru her pgcy. It's so hard, I feel for you.
Keep your head up, 2009 is around the corner, this has to be it!
jeeze, sorry for writing a book!! lol
Hi! I found your blog from Stirrup Queens. Doesn't infertility just suck!? I know the holidays are so hard to enjoy in this situation. I hope you will have luck with your treatments in 2009! You guys are such a beautiful couple, and your blog has been so helpful for me to read already! It just helps knowing I am not alone.
