It has been a LONG, LONG time! We have been so busy!
Since I last updated we have relocated to Michigan. It was really, really hard at first but I think both Adam and I are starting to get used to it. The move here was terrible, we had really bad luck with the moving company we used (they ruined a bunch of our stuff, which still isn't fixed)took a lot longer than anticiptated so I think off the bat I was not happy about the whole situation at all. My husband is so happy to be back where he grew up and where his friends and family are - now if he just wouldn't work so much we could actually see everyone more. He has been working on this one project since we moved that has taken up so much of his time - everyday he is gone before we get up and many days doesn't get home until after we are in bed! Also, there has been maybe 15 or so days that he has made it home for dinner. I had a really hard time with all of this and was really depressed about the whole thing for a while there. It wasn't pretty at all, I was actually getting really worried about myself. But, things are getting better. Adam and I are going out and doing more things - he has a music class and a playgroup class he does at the park district here, and I am constantly looking for more things to do so we can meet new people. And Bob's project he is working on is starting to slow down so he is getting home at a normal time lately - which is awesome for us all to be together as a family! That was the whole point of us moving here to be together more often.
Adam is doing AMAZING! He is talking SO MUCH and we can have little conversations with him. He LOVES to sing and his favorite shows are Yo Gabba Gabba and Mickey Mouse Clubhouse. We actually took him to see Yo Gabba Gabba LIVE a few weeks ago and he was so adorable there! He didn't move a muscle the entire time. I can tell that he is going to be a shy kid like Bob and I both were growing up. He tends to stand back in music class and isn't the kid that is loud and running around but he is getting so much better about not having to be right by me the whole time. I am really trying to find something for him where I can drop him off and leave because I feel like he needs something like that. It's to the point where I can't leave him at all, not even with Bob or he'll cry.
We were at my parents house a few weeks ago and my dad introduced Adam to Oreos - oh goodness, the boy can't get enough of them now. We were at the grocery store with Bob the other day and we walked by the Oreos and Bob asked Adam if he like Oreos and he replied, "I love them!" It was so funny, I have no idea where he got that! He has started calling me "Honey" and he calls Bob "Babe" - since that is what Bob and I call each other. He has been singing his ABCs lately and has almost all of the letters down except the LMNOP part is a little jumbled together and he can count to 20! I am so proud of how much he is developing lately! He just amazes me everyday!
Now on to some news! Bob and I have met with a new doctor here and we are going to be do another round of IVF in January! I will start the birth control pills in December and then in January I will start all of the drugs and have the egg retrieval by mid-January probably! I am SO excited but also nervous and scared. This doctor seems awesome and they have a incredible success rate but he has already said that he is going to up my meds this time and they do things a little differently than my last doctor did (they don't have me come in as often), which makes me nervous but I just keep telling myself that they have had a ton of success.
Here are some pictures from when we went to Yo Gabba Gabba live - the one with Bob is how he was the entire show!
Adam and I were ready for Game 7 of the World Series! I am originally from St. Louis and have grown up loving the Cardinals! We were so excited here when they won!
