All I Need is my Gumption

Yesterday, we got the book I ordered to help us as I feel woefully uninformed.

Tomorrow we take the keys to our new house (so if this site goes a little quiet for a few days it's because I don't have access!)

We take possession of our beautiful new puppy tomorrow.

We move into a sun-swathed house on Saturday, a house we love more than anything, a house we can plan a baby's room in if and when that day ever comes.

We start so many new things from today-a new life in a home we own. A new life as joint dog owners. A new life as people that play with color wheels and dream big dreams.

And tonight I start my first shot in our first IVF round together, and that's a first, too.

I got that same book as you, too. I found it a little underwhelming, as I found most of that info online.

But I also got this book which i like a bit better: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0881792039/sr=8-1/qid=1143239428/ref=sr_1_1/104-2676783-3927169?%5Fencoding=UTF8

I love that book! I am devoting Sunday to finishing it. Even though you are busy, it is worth the read.
You must post pictures of the new puppy. A new house too? I thought I had alot going on, you must be super woman. I hope the shot went well tonight.
Good luck with the move and the new puppy.

What an exciting time! Experiencing all those firsts with someone you love is an amazing feeling. Best of luck with the move and the shots!
