Oh boy! These are the kinds of weeks that I think "You mom's must have super powers!" I don't have kids 24/7 and I just can not seem to catch up! Lol.
Since my last update, we have made some major progress on the baby front! I learned how to use Skype! :-) Brian and I had our Skype consult with the Doctor from Arizona Center for Fertility Studies. I think that was actually in my last update. Basically, he just walked us through the basics of the process. I really like him. At the beginning of June, I had my appointment with my Gastro doctor. There is no change in my illness at that time. We talked about the surrogacy, and he is excited for us about it. He cleared me for the stimulation and egg harvesting! YAY! :-) I will, however, have to have appointments with him every 2 weeks during the process. Wow!
I had an appointment with the IVF coordinator last week. Talk about information overload! It was awesome though. She went through every tiny detail of the process. So many tests! So many meds! Lol. Already, every step of this, I am just amazed at the ability to do this! We worked out a tentative schedule for the egg harvest and creating the embryos. Looks like we are going to be completing this phase approximately the end of September! That is only 3 months! They will create the embryos and then freeze them until we are ready for implant.
We are still unsure of when Brian's deployment is, so I am glad that we will have that phase done! Plus that way we don't have to stress about Caryn and my bodies "syncing" correctly. Less stress=better chance of results. :-)
We had another yard sale last weekend. I am shocked at how well they are doing! This one, we made about $300! I am also loving that my house is getting cleared out! ;-)
I started a weight loss challenge with my Herbalife products! I am down almost 10lbs now, and feel so much more alert and in control of my body!
I also just found this awesome company through a friend, called Wildtree. I got a bunch of samples of the product and am really wanting to do a tasting soon. It is a line of all natural cooking products that helps you make healthy and delicious meals from scratch while cutting your grocery bill in half! I have only tried a few things so far, but it all looks soooo good, and simple! They are also a peanut free facility!

I used the "Just Like Mom's Meatloaf" Mix and
made meatballs. They were sooo good!
I am starting a new site to have all the info about Herbalife and Wildtree. I am so excited about both these products. I have loved adding Herbalife into our life, and am looking forward to including Wildtree also. The new site is called "The Stepping Stones" the web address is www.thefirststepforward.com.
