Day 50
Another Doctor's Appointment where we got to see our boo! My favorite days! The office has a huge flatscreen on the wall across from me, which is awesome!

Ein weiterer Arzttermin, wo wir unseren kleinen Mann bewundern konnten! Ich liebe solche Tage! Die Arztpraxis hat einen riesigen Flachbildschirm an der Wand gegenueber von mir haengen, was super ist! 


Day 51
Getting a bunch of Etsy Orders in the mail.

Ein paar meiner Etsy Bestellungen haben es zum Briefkasten geschafft.

Abendessen mit Katie's Bruder und Stiefmutter. Cosie LIEBT seine Oma Sandie!

Another free baby class at Babies R Us, this one was called "Baby Basics" and we liked it a lot. Tomorrow we're attending another class about Babyproofing your house!

Ein weiterer kostenloser Babykurs bei Babies R Us, dieser nannte sich "Baby Grundlagen" und wir mochten ihn sehr. Morgen gehen wir zu einem Kurs, der darum geht, sein Haus kindersicher zu machen. 


Day 54
Sunday afternoon walk with our dudes. 

Ein Spaziergang mit unseren "Jungs" am Sonntag Nachmittag.


Day 55
29 weeks (and 3 days) pregnant!

29 Wochen (und 3 Tage) schwanger!


Day 56
Getting our paperwork to do taxes in order...ugh! I couldn't believe how many medical receipts we accumulated in the last year. I mean, I knew we spent a lot of money on making our little miracle, but when I saw that my bills alone came to $45,000, I almost fainted. Worth every penny and more! 

Ich habe unseren Papierkram fuer die Steuererklaerung zusammen gesucht. Ich konnte gar nicht glauben, wieviele Arztrechnungen wir im letzten Jahr angesammelt haben. Ich wusste, dass wir eine Menge Geld fuer unser kleines Wunder ausgegeben haben, aber als ich feststellte, dass meine Rechnungen alleine sich auf $45,000 beliefen, bin ich fast umgekippt. Aber er war jeden Pfennig und noch mehr wert!

    Wow, $45000-while I'm sure you'll say it was more than worth it, I hope most of that was covered by your insurance!

    I have just added up our clinic bills and for one IUI it came to a total of £2535/$4250(all paid out of pocket), so only a fraction of your treatment costs....

      Unfortunately, that was all out of pocket. Insurance didn't cover any of it. I miss the german health system! :)

April phone dump

Some more pictures of our April. He's my bed hog, but I love sharing the bed with him and the way he comes find me in his sleep to snuggle up to me. Work Crew! Easter Preparations...it took me a solid hour to fill all the eggs. Finn chipped his permanent front tooth, and had to get it fixed. He was so brave. I tried to hold his hand to let him know I was there, and he kept giving me a thumbs up. Reading in bed with them is my favorite. We went to play mini golf, and it was an absolutely shit show. Just look at Finn in the background, he was on fire on this day. That's his "cool face". Not pictured are all the times he melted down because he wasn't "good enough". I really need to stop playing this game with him, because it happens every single time...haha.  Book Club! I wasn't a fan of the book, but it was great getting out and talking about books with other readers. He got into kinetic sand for a few weeks, and I felt like my floors were covered in s...

Germany

I took a quick trip to Germany over spring break while the boys were on vacation with Katie. My dad had some medical issues over the past year, and it had been almost two years since I went, but a trip that was supposed to be five days in Germany, ended up being only four days because of flight delays. When in Germany for the first time, you HAVE to try Mettbroetchen. Needless to say, she was not a fan haha. A trip down memory lane is always on the agenda for the first day, walking around my village, visiting the homes where I grew up in (which are luckily still owned by my family), visiting my grandparent's graves, and eating all my favorite foods.  My only living grandparent, and one of the main reasons I wanted to go visit. It was so special to spend time with her. We had doener almost every day! Family dinner at my favorite restaurant one night, I absolutely loved how many people were able to join us even though it was very short notice. We also had breakfast at my grandma'...

May iPhone dump

Some pictures to round up on our May! I got this sweet birthday card from my supervisors and director and it made my day. Playdates with friends! I took the boys to the Home Show to visit Katie. Aunt Bri photo bombed their picture! Dentist vibes! We had a fun dinner and swim date with my friend Lindsay and her kids. These two jumped in the pool fully dressed! I loved seeing how well they got along. Finn's Mother's Day Project from school, always funny! They had a cute Mother's Day celebration at school where they served us moms with muffins and coffee, and presented a little poem. My friend Jessica posted this about our random Goodwill date, and I loved her words. For my birthday, I wanted to have a little brunch with my friends, and it was such a perfect morning with my favorite people. Add a baby in the mix, and I was in heaven! Proud mom moment, and this needs a permanent spot for my memories. Fox has worked so incredibly hard this year, I was so worried about him transi...
