Ladies and Gentleman: Transfer Complete

On Monday I went in for my embryo transfer.  Before I went they gave me a Valium... I was a bit disappointed in that! ha!  It hardly relaxed me... oh well! :)  The actual procedure took 15 minutes or so to transfer the embryos.  My doctor said the two the transfered were "beautiful" and said "there's no reason for this not to work!"  He was very optimistic (no promises, of course).  I spent about 30 minutes afterward laying down at the doctor's office-- crying (happy) for 10) and then had to lay down in the car.  As soon as we got home, LEah and Casen were here to take care of me while Richey whisked off to take a final (he's in grad school... busy day!!).  While on bed rest, I was very entertained!  It was weird because I felt perfectly normal, but had to take it so easy.  I got to spend time with my sis, nephew, and wild puppy for THREE days-- it wasfun!  Here are some pics to document the "fun!"
Cali spent a lot of time laying right next to me-- sweet girl!


Leah and Casen (snoozing)


Cali LOVES Casen (and vise versa... look at that smile!)


Lots of licks... a little out of control!


Seriously, I've had enough, Cali!


The only safe place for Casen to sleep... :)


I'm thankful for my sweet fam to keep me company this week.  I'm feeling good... just waiting!  Pray for patience and peace.  

The LORD gives strength to his people; 
       the LORD blesses his people with peace.
Psalm 29:11
