Another Round and a new house

We are well on our way to completing another round of a fresh cycle of IVF. Josh and I went to baystate yesterday morning (early! needed to be there at 6:45am. Had to leave the house at 5am. Carly came to babysit Jacob at 5am). The retrieval went well. They retrieved 24 eggs which is really great! They called today to say that out of the 24 eggs, 20 were mature enough for the ICSI procedure (putting the sperm into the egg) and from those 20, 16 fertilized!. They will call back on Friday to tell me how they are doing and if I need to come in for a Day 3 transfer (Friday) or if I can wait until Sunday for a Day 5 transfer (in the previous two retrievals, I have always done a day 5 transfer). We will be transferring two embryos so we will see what happens! Excited, nervous, all things!

We also have signed a purchase and sale on a new house. we will close on Feb. 15th, the same day we close on our current home. The story about how we bought the house is really funny. We weer all set to put an offer in on this other house in Williamstown. I liked it enough and so did Josh and the price was such that we could make improvements. Anyway, Jim and Sandi were taking Jacob this weekend so Josh and I could pack. I had to be at Baystate Sat. morning for an ultrasound and bloodwork so we decided to spend the night in greenfield on Friday; Josh and I would leave from there Sat morning and Jacob would stay. Since we were kid less, our realtor asked if we wanted to see a house that just came on the market at noon on Sat. We said "Sure" the whole time thinking that we would make an offer on the other home and "just look" at this one. Well, we LOVED it. The house is great (a small yard) but it is great! After looking at it, we told our realtor that we would go have lunch and let her know if we wanted to make an offer (it had already been shown 3 times in 24 hours). Well, we skipped lunch and went right in to make an offer. as we were there, there was another person making an offer. Long story short, they accepted our offer and we are on our way! Bu
