PREGGERS! I got the call today and I had a positive pregnancy test! My HcG level ( the pregnancy hormone) was at a 15.8 and anything over a 5 is considered pregnant. My doctor likes to see at level of 25 or above, so I am a little on the low side right now. Me, being the worry wart I am, was asking the nurse, "Should I worry? Is this okay?" She told me she has seen women with as low as a 5 go on and have a healthy pregnancy, so don't worry. They will be having me come in and get my levels checked every few days to ensure they are doubling (which is a sign of a healthy pregnancy). She said sometimes in frozen transfer, hcg levels are slightly lower. I am not going to focus on the levels though, I am going to revel in the fact that we are PREGNANT! The words we have been dying to hear forever!
Tonight we will be celebrating by going to our orientation for a food rating program we do. We go to restaurants and are "secret diners" where we rate food and service and get free meals! Can't beat it! So today, on our day of fabulous news, we get to go out and have a free meal! Thanks to everyone for your prayers, there really is power in prayer! Keep them coming that our levels double and that we have a happy, healthy pregnancy! I go get my blood drawn on Wednesday so I will keep you updated!!
Yippee!!1 oh my god I am so excited for you both and for me, Grandma! Thrilled doesn't even begin to explain how I am feeling for you guys! Congrats!

Well this has been a fantastic day and I admire you more and more with each passing moment honey. Your strength during our journey has been been remarkable and awe inspiring to say the least. I see the way you work with your children in the classroom and with how you've sacrificed and brought on large amounts of pain to your little body and am glad this day is finally here!!! You deserve this and will be the best momma for our little ones as I know you will do anything for them (as you've already shown with daily shots, pills and early morning appointments - even on Saturdays!!!). I can't wait to raise our children with you and hope they turn out to be just like you my wonderful wife! I'm so proud of you my little baby maker!!! We did it honey!!! Love you babe, now it's time start taking care of those little ones, what kind of ice cream am I picking up?!?! I can't wait to spoil you rotten...
