Our offer was accepted! So now we are in the process of actually buying our house! Yay! The walk through this weekend went really well, although the painter they hired was pretty sloppy. Jeff worked as a painter for a year so he noticed little things. Like they a semi gloss paint before and they painted matte after it and they missed spots so you can see it shining at certain angles. Also, they didn't move some change on the windowsill so the change got painted but not the sill. I really hope they didn't pay a whole lot for this "professional" painter because they did a sloppy job. So needless to say, the sellers have a few painting projects to do before we close. And that day is set for April 1st, and we're planning on moving in on April 3rd! I'm so excited for it!
I still can't believe that we're buying a house. I just keep telling myself that we are going to be homeowners! It seems like we've started a big house-buying exodus with our friends with this house. Which is very fun. :)
One thing I hate about moving is actually moving all of our stuff out and setting everything up. It seems like we just packed up everything a few months ago. Oh wait, we did! :P So I've been packing and packing and packing. I'm glad this move will be more permanent.
On the ttc front, not much is happening. I'm still enjoying the monitor, although it's still at low. I wonder every morning if it’s still working. I guess the only consolidation I have is the numbers keep getting bigger, but no change in fertility status. I'm hoping it will change soon! From what I figured out, I should ovulate sometime this weekend. So I kind of expected something to happen with the monitor. But no such luck, yet.
I did do a funny thing with the monitor last night. I had to pee about 2 in the morning but I thought it was time to get up. Needless to say, I actually did pee on the stick and put it in the monitor, but then it started blinking red at me so I knew there was something wrong. When I finally got my eyes to focus on the clock, I had to laugh because I even took my temperature before I got up. I'm a little upset that I wasted a test stick but still funny that it's so ingrained in me already! When I do become pregnant, I won’t know what to do with myself in the morning.
One of my friends from church is having a baby shower and I'm not going. I feel a little bad about it, but I feel better about not going than I do about going. I just can't bring myself to sit through all the other mothers there talking about kid stuff and motherhood, knowing that I'm not a part of that.
More news on Jeff's SA. He has an elevated white blood cell count so he probably has an infection somewhere. Which could throw off his morphology. We're hoping that a round of antibiotics will help with both of those things!
And my RE consult is next Wednesday! I'm so excited, nervous, scared and curious. I feel like I'm stepping over the threshold into the next step in our life. The life of medication, doctor appointments, and hopefully motherhood at the end! Wish us luck!
~Always, Cat
