This is a long one guys!!! We had a great time while here! The best part by far was meeting the future Mommy and Daddy!!! We had such a great time I was so worried what if they decided they didnt like me or we just were not a good fit for each other. We ate at the Tavern at the Park. I got there SUPER early I was just to nervous to wait at the hotel anymore lol. But once they got there it was great! We talked about friends and family she has a big family that she’s very close with! I think that’s so nice! Ricky got along great with the intended Daddy they talked about sports and crap lol. They really remind me of us he seems so laid back and more quiet and she seems more out going! I just can’t believe how well we match up I feel like we really have a lot of the same feelings about how we want all of this to go. We really just want what is best for the baby. The food there was so yummy and so was the desert and we had some champagne to celebrate! Ricky and I went to the Lincoln Park Zoo that place was so much fun the polor bear was my favorite part! After the zoo we went out for drinks!  Before we leave we’re going to walk down to the Navy Pier and est at Portillo’s! Then its back on a plane to head home I’m excited to love on my kids but I’m sad we don’t get to spend more time with our new friends! Oh I almost forgot the best part!!!! Dr Kaplan said I have a beautiful uterus! And we got my calendar for transfer!!! Holy cow do I need to study this thing! Lindsay we have to buy me a planner like yours and you need to get me organized with it!!! As long as contracts are done by August 22 then I start my shots… scary right lol. So ill be back September 23 to get pregnant!!!! Woohoo I can’t wait to have a baby momma and daddy lol.

Ok guys I know its been a while sorry. We have been so busy with life lol. In just two days I will finally be meeting my IM and ID (intended mommy and daddy)!!! I can’t tell you how excited and terrified I am all at the same time!!! What if its like the show catfish on MTV lol. I’m sure its not but a funny way to look at it! We will be meeting them Thursday night at 7:30 at a restaurant it looks super yummy! They asked if we wanted to meet Thursday or Friday but I just can’t wait a extra day lol. Then Friday morning we will be off to my med screening at 6:30 am.  I’m wondering how long it will take them to tell me everything looks ok. I know they have to do std tests so I’m sure that takes a week or so. I think we are also doing another psychological exam. Then we will be off to spend the day on the town! But I’m ready for a break I think it would be nice to lay in a hotel bed all day and watch tv and nap!! I’m pretty sure Ricky will not let that happen lol. I promise to update as soon as I get a chance after we meet in Chicago!

Well the agency got back to me with all our plans! We will be flying in to chicago from St. Louis its only a 45 min flight lol. But I’m glad were flying we have a very busy month! Were going to visit grandma in branson the first week in August so that’s a 6 hour drive there and back then we get back sunday only to fly out to Chicago on Thursday!  So if we would have had to drive it would be a lot of driving in a week! We will be in chicago by 3 we can check into our hotel by 4. I’m so excited to get there! Were not taking the kids so it will be like a little mini vaca for Ricky and I! I have been once before with Krystal and we had a BLAST!!! I hope Ricky is as much fun but I doubt it lol. I know my IP’s said they would like to meet us for lunch or diner on Thursday or Friday so that is what I’m most excited about finally meeting the woman I have been emailing for over a month! I was talking online with a few other surro’s who are already pregnant and they were talking about people asking about the baby and pregnancy and what all they say.  I can’t wait! There so funny they tell people shhh don’t tell my husband its not his lol and don’t worry its not mine LOL I can just see peoples faces already! They will be like what in the world! Also how many women can say I have a baby momma lol!!! Well I hope one day I can! I know ricky has lots planed for Chicago he wants to eat pizza and portello’s I think that’s how you spell it lol and go to the pier and sears tower and see how much Cardinal’s stuff he can wear lol!  I would be happy shopping! We should be geeting back Saturday evening.  Ill be so glad to get the kids but I’m sure they won’t miss us at all Granny and PaPa always spoil them lol.

Going to Chicago!!!

Ok so I got my email from the nurse today and she said to start taking the birth control pills on sunday! Then she asked if me and Ricky could go for my medical screening on August 9th!!!! That’s only like 3 weeks away! My appointment is at 6:30 AM!!! So anyone that really knows me knows I HATE getting up early I don’t roll out of bed untill the last possible second lol. But because I’m so excited and nervous I’m sure I won’t be sleeping the night before anyway! I know lots of girls freak out about the screening and i am worried about it but I’m more freaked out about meeting my IP’s in person! It takes a lot to make me nervous but I really am about meeting them! I know 100% once were there it will be great its just the 3 weeks leading up to it now lol. So I guess after all this happens and my medical screening comes back great then it will be onto contracts (I’m least excited about this) I know it has to be done and its in everyone’s best interest but I just don’t like the idea at all it seems so business like and i dont want to step on anyones toes or anything. I can just see that getting awkward and I only want to build a amazing friendship! But then it will be all the meds and SHOTS!!! I’m also not super excited for that lol. So that’s all for now and ill update soon guys!!!

Guess what!!!!

Woohooo I started my period!!!!! I litterly was juming up and down at work and high fived lindsay!!! I felt like a twelve year old girl who got it for the first time. I emailed the lady at the Drs office first and then my IM!!! I’m pretty sure she’s just as excited as me lol at least I hope she is! So now I hope this means I get to go to chicago soon for my medical screening and more importantly to meet my IP’s. Its really odd getting to know them with email and papers and one phone call. Normally you meet someone like them and then the rest follows this is like all backwards. I feel like its like internet dating but for a baby lol. Anyway its going to be a happy night for me and ill update when I hear from the nurse tomorrow! !! Thanks again everyone for all the support! !!
