Ok..so here I go again. Hoping I can get this blogging thing going. I really want to do this. I want to have my memories stored away nicely. It seems like all those little moments from when Bella was born are fading so quickly. Let's see if this can work. Between work and life it just seems impossible to keep up a blog but I will try...I will try.

It all happened so fast, so I went and grabbed the flip. My dad was over and Louie was working. Dad sat on the couch holding B while I sat on the floor and called for her to come. Well..she did!! She took about 3 steps and had the biggest smile on her face!!!!

My poor little baby is not feeling well. She has a cold and is teething. During the day she is better but at night she is not good at all. She is stuffy and has a hard time nursing. I wish I could took all her pain away. She started getting sick on Friday and I contemplated taking in to the pedi. I called the pedi and she wanted me to bring her in. I wasn't sure I wanted to expose her to other

It was the cutest thing EVER!! I just wanted to wake her up and hug her. Sometimes I just lay next to her, starting at her, at those beautiful cheeks that look like she's storing nuts for the winter and I'm just amazed at how we have this beautiful baby girl! Everyday I'm just filled with love more and more. Is is possible to love your baby tooooo much? I think I love her so much I could die.

Since Bella was about 4-5months she would get so excited when I would get home from work. She would start jumping up and down, flailing her arms as she would see me. For the past couple of months she has been hugging, kissing, and stroking my hair when I get home from work. It is the most amazing feeling ever!! Open mouth baby kisses are for sure the best thing ever!!!!! Last night was an early

We had a wonderful time at Babylovesdisco for Halloween. We met up with our good friends Tina, Jon and Bella. Bella was born the day after my Bella..confused? After giving birth to my sweet Bella, I shared a room in the hospital with a sweet 1st time mommy who just happened to also name her daughter Isabella too! Isn't that so cool? Since then, we have kept in touch and become good friends. I

So..I've decided.. for the purpose of documenting those ever so precious moments with our beautiful baby girll...that I will try this blog thing out one more time. It will be hard. I barely have time to take care of the every day stuff. Nevertheless, I will make an effort. This is something that will mean a lot to us some day. To be able to go back and read about our lives will be priceless. I

Louie and I took the bus in to the city and the whole ride down I was so nervous. Louie as always was very calm and very positive. What would I ever do without him?? It was 98°f out but I was shivering cold from the nerves and had butterflies in my stomach. At one point I thought I was going to puke. Well..we got to the Dr's office just in time and again I was shaking while we waited. Louie

I was very upset because I though Louie wasn't going to be able to make it to our 1st u/s. I really didn't let him know how upset I was..I didn't want him to miss work. His job really sucks when it comes to taking time off. Luckily, he was able to explain to his foreman that he just needed to come in a little later and the guy understood. Yay!!!! They are usually not very understanding. If you

I have never ever gotten a BFP so this is so unreal. DH was soooooo happy when I surprised him with the CBE digital! This was our break cycle after injectables and then we were doing our last IUI before IVF. It is truly a miracle!!!! Let me tell you how it all started..... After the evil AF arrived on 4/24/08, we decided we needed a break. This was our life for that past months: Cycle #1: 50mg
