My Infertility Journey

I’ve been thinking about this subject for weeks and have been pondering about what to say and how to say it. When it comes right down to it, I really want to help people. I always feel better when someone else understands what I am going through. I want to be that person for others. I want people to be able to read my story and say, “Yes! I know exactly what she is talking about,” and then find peace in knowing they are not alone. So here it goes, my story of infertility: http://andyandstefany.blogspot.com/p/story.html

Macy Turns 15 Months

Macy turned 15 months on Tuesday. I thought I would take a few minutes and tell you what she has been up to.

• Her 15 month checkup was yesterday and she is 32 inches tall and weighs 21 pounds, 4 ounces. This puts her in the 90th percentile for height and 50th for weight.
  


• We counted up the words she knows for the doctor. She says, "mama, dada, no, don't, bottle, bubble, baby, hello, Dora, backpack, and eye". My favorite is when she pushes on my belly button (which is an outie these days) and says, "baby". She is going to get quite a surprise when the "baby" comes out and there are two rather than one!
  


• Macy is so happy. She laughs and sings and jabbers all day long. I often miss her little noises when she is sleeping. She is still wild and crazy and I think between her and her daddy the boys will have some good training on how to be super silly.
  


• Macy refuses to walk. We think she is scared because she slowly squats to the ground or lunges for people or furniture when she finds herself standing alone. She does like to do a bear walk with her little bum high in the air, so we think she is close!
  


• Macy knows the motions to "The Itsy, Bitsy Spider" and she had her first public performance in Young Women's on Sunday.

And then suddenly she was on the run.
