SuperOvulation!™

That's right boys and girls not just boring, regular ovulation but SuperOvulation!™.
Let me invite you into my head (turn back now if you're not brave enough) for a moment. Yesterday at my oh-so-favorite yearly Dr. appointment with the "woman doctor" (as Adam calls them) my GYN was explaining to me about SuperOvulation!™ All I could think of was having SuperBabies. Little creatures that could fly before they could walk, shoot energy beams from their eyes, help me rearrange the bedroom furniture with their super strength and still have time to save the world before naptime.


As the doctor explained about being injected with "something" (honestly don't know if he told me what that "something" was or not, I was busy in my head) that would stimulate my follicles (does anyone else find that to be a disturbing word?) so that my body would release more than 1 egg per cycle thus increasing my chances of getting pregnant. Now, he didn't mention the increased chance of multiple births but all I could think of is being the mother of the whole Justice League, or the Fantastic Four.

I'll be sure to give you an update on how it turns out (if we decide to go down this road) In the meantime... beware evil doers SuperBabies could be on their way!

A Day at the Park


About 2 weeks ago when the weather started to turn, all the snow melted and everyone began emerging from their houses. It has to be my favorite time of the year. Everyone looks like groundhogs peeking out with squinting eyes. I decided to join the pack since it was such a nice day. I found out there is a dog park close to my house. So Moose and I ventured out. A combination of lots of snow melting in 1 day, still sunny skies, and lots of dogs led to these pictures. No those are not tattoos or new marks on his face--it's all pure grime.


Adam showed up after we had been there only 10 minutes or so and didn't recognize his dog.

After returning home smelling like mud, wet dog, and other not so wonderful smells Moose was subjected to a bath. Thankfully he was so tired that he didn't put up much of a fight (he hates baths).

We have all since recovered from our day in the park--though I think Moose is still a little tired!

Moose



After 3.5 years of wedded bliss and no current children of our own we decided to adopt. Moose was born July 6th and came into our home in August of 2007. He immediately began to entertain us and provided a sense of family we didn't know was missing.

我結婚已經三年半也還沒有小孩。 所以我們收養一之小狗。 Moose 7月6日出生了、8月來我們的家裡。 它立刻的使娛樂我們也給我們一個全家的感覺。

True Confessions of a Blog-Lurker

So, I've been blog lurking for a few months and contemplating starting my own--so here it is! I will admit my hesitation lies in the fact that it seems most people blog about kids therefore I figured I would have nothing to blog about. But with the addition of a dog-child to our family things have become more interesting and definitely more blog-able!!!

Anyhow, my true desire in blogging is to stay in touch with friends and to reconnect with those I've lost contact with. Hope to see many familiar faces!

我也要一個好好的方法跟我臺灣的好朋友聯絡。 大家好。 我想念你們。
