Happy New Year

The holidays came and went, my parents got to Australia safe and sound (they are having a wonderful time with my brother, btw) and now we are in 2010 wondering what this year will bring us.
I'm really trying to be optimistic about this whole IVF thing... I received my meds on 12/30/09, here is a little glimps of it:

Looks wonderful, doesn't it?

I started my stims last night. A combination of a lupron, menopur, follistim injected in my stomach burned like a motherF.....r! I guess I should have listen to the girls on the Infertility board about icing the injection site before hand but I will tonight.  It took me about 1/2 hour to mix all the meds together, I was partially nervous and excited for my 1st stim.  Besides burning for about an hour I did not experience any other side effects (yet).  And the consolation price was really nice, my lovely hubby took me out to dinner at Bistro Wasabi - which is always much appreciated!

For New Year's Eve dinner we went to Bistro Wasabi, which became our little tradition for the last 3 years.  This year Sue and Marc joined Dave and me for our little private celebration.
