Quick update. Terry is not pregnant. Per our request we are sitting out this month. Lots to do. We will pick up where we left off, plus add in some drugs & try again in a month or so. Depending on how that goes, we will then decide if we will try again with Terry & if so, how many more months.
We are researching some fertility clinics in the area where we are moving. We are thinking about the possibility of giving InVitro Fertilization a couple of shots; with me not a surrogate. There are some great clinics in & around the Chicago area. It is now or never. I will be 36 November 25th, so we can't think about this possibility very much longer. We don't want to look back at some point & wonder if we should have tried it, so we are thinking about giving it a shot in or around April 2010. We need to get moved & settled, plus I want to be in the best health that I can possibly be in. I have about fifty more pounds I would like to lose to be at my goal weight. So, with those things in mind & of course we will see what happens with Terry & also where we are in our timeline with Mia's adoption at that time as well. For now, this is the plan that we have in our minds though.
Moving is coming along. Our home isn't even listed on the MLS yet, there is no sign in the yard & we haven't even had the realtor open. However, there was a family that wanted to see it the day after we signed the contract to list it with a realtor. We allowed them to show it & apparently this family is very interested. They are "sleeping on it". So, hopefully come Monday morning we will have an offer.
We will be having a huge moving sale. We are pricing items for that this week. We are heading to Illinois in a few days to meet with the realtor to look at properties. We will stay there a couple of days. Hopefully before returning home we will have a place secured to move to in Illinois.
Hopefully within a few weeks most all of this will be done & behind us. We will likely be moved, far from settled~but, at least moved!

I'm sorry it didn't work out this month, Jen. May God make it clear to you what steps to take next.
Thanks for updating, Jen. I've been thinking of you this week. I was sorry to read that things didn't happen for you this month, but it sounds like everything is moving in a good direction and you have lots of options. Good luck with your big sale!!
That is great that you might already have an offer! I hope it sells quickly for you.
September 27th, that is so soon and so much to do. I wish I was closer and could help you out. Also, the 27th is Mike's birthday, what a great day!
So sorry to hear this...
Hopefully the new scenery will give you a new focus for a little bit to take your mind off it.
Good luck with packing! I hate that part.
