Waiting and baking

Today is CD7, last day of Clomid 100mg. After much back and forth on Thursday, I finally talked to the RE (instead of playing telephone with the nurse), and decided to go with his rec of 100mg. After the Clomid is complete, I start on Estrace 2x per day to help with my lining, and then Saturday go in for a sonogram to see what my body is doing. Things are chugging along.

The weekend was fantastic, maybe that’s why the Clomid feels like it went so quickly. Friday I had the day off from work, and spent it with my sister (who was also off) and her 4 boys – yup, count em, 4. It was tiring but great. They are sweet kids.

Then, by some sort of divine intervention, DH didn’t have to work this weekend! I was beyond thrilled. We had our own mini “staycation” in the city—slept a lot, ate a lot, saw a lot of movies, saw friends, and just enjoyed each other’s company. I even baked the Cookies and Cream cake from Annie’s Eats that I have been meaning to get around to (wow I figured out how to post pics):

Really painful to come back to work this morning, but at least Labor Day is around the corner! (And cake leftovers help also!)
