We got our calender! Woot Woot! Needless to say we are all thrilled and so ready. Looks like we will be doing the transfer toward the end of January. I got all my meds today and start those lovely injections at the end of the month. It feels so good to have a date in the near future.
It has been kinda' weird being in this limbo state that I have been in. Back in March 2009 I go and tell my friends and family the news. I address all of the questions, the surprised stares and a wee bit of drama that goes along with it. I was strong and determined though. I knew I had the support of my peeps behind me and gosh darn-it, I am going to be a surrogate! I thought whew, glad I got that outta the way. Now when can we do this?
{I am not always the most patient} I was ready to go.
So here we are almost two years later {still ready to go} and I feel like the little boy who cried wolf.
"I'm gonna' be a surrogate!"
"Ya ya we heard you...we'll believe it when we see it."
I still get the occasional "So what's going on with the whole surrogacy thing?" I find myself thinking, "Your guess is as good as mine!" I don't get into detail with very many people because if there is one thing I have learned through this process it's that things change ALL the time.
But...
Anyone who really knows me, knows I am a determined soul. When I put my mind to something, I see it through. I am seeing this one through. I feel like it is my mission.
I want to help someone else experience the same joy I get from my little ankle biters...That joy is like pure crack to me. I can't get enough of it. I love my kids more than anything.
I want my IP's to get the happily ever after that they deserve.
So here we are. I'm still here. I'm almost there.
I can't wait. I'm gonna' do this. I am so thrilled. =)
