Is the weekend really over already!  WTF?  That was, like, the quickest one ever!

I can’t say we did all that much, but we had fun.  Saturday night I went out to celebrate my friends 24th birthday.  We went to a restaurant just 3 minutes from my house, Babylon Carriage House.  They have delicious food and a great atmosphere.  I had the most perfectly grilled filet, cooked medium- butterflied, of course (Don’t flog me for not eating filet rare to medium rare, please…I like things dead before they enter my mouth)  And the truffled mac and cheese served along side was unbelievable, although so garlicky that my husband is still keeping his distance!  Pair that up with a nice glass of Rosemount Shiraz and you’re in business!

After dinner we ventured down the road 1/8 of a mile to The Post Office.  Here we chatted like school girls and downed coconut martinis.  Oh how I will miss coconut martinis.  It was a really fun night!

Sunday morning we went to my in-laws for breakfast, French Toast breakfast to be exact!  She makes the most u-n-b-e-l-i-e-v-a-b-l-e french toast ever!  **Although I have to give mad props to my husband who serves up the most impeccable croissant french toast.  Yes he makes French toast with croissants, instead of bread….UNREAL I tell you!  Then he slices up apples and cooks them with cinnamon and maple syrup to drizzle over the French toast…MING!**  Anyway, we were there from 9:30 until about 1pm (we had lots to catch up on!)  and then we headed 2 miles over to my parent’s house to catch up with them.  We spent another 2.5 hours there and didn’t get home until around 4.  It was a wonderful day of visiting and now both sets of parents are fully caught up on My Fertility Stories…or should I say “Our Fertility Stories”.

After we got home we still had our normal weekend stuff to do, like food shopping, and little things like that.  We took care of that and as we were walking into the house with our groceries, a truck pulled up.  A huge truck full of men in black masks holding baseball bats!  Just kidding.  It was friends of ours that are actually going in to have their first baby, a little boy, on Wednesday! They stopped by and were here for an hour or so.  It was unexpected and nice to see them outside of a ‘function’.  I like visits like that, impromptu. 

Anyway…Now the news many of you are waiting to hear…

We went in for day 10 monitoring, super early this morning.  I have 4 maturing follicles on my right side and only a couple on my left.  On the right they are measuring 11, 10, 9 and 7.5mm and on my left only 7 and 9mm.  I go back in 2 days, unless they tell me otherwise when they call with the blood results later today. 

So this is awesome, we’re right on track for cycle day 10.  The earliest we will be able to rock the IUI will probably be this weekend, but we will see where we are come Wednesday!  I have to keep reminding myself that the past 2 months on Clomid I still didn’t ovulate until well after day 14, more like days 21- 25 actually.  I’m just hedging my bets that since I took the Clomid days 3-9 as opposed to days 5-9, I will ovulate earlier.  Again, only time will tell.

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend and are starting your week off well!
