On Monday, Collin had surgery to repair a cartilage defect in his right knee. It went well but he is in full recovery mode and will be out of commission for a while, not driving, and on crutches for at least 6 weeks.

The last time I was early pregnant I was rather private about the details and didn't share much with people. I feel very differently this time around and decided to be pretty open about everything that's going on and what we're going through. In November 2009, Laila was conceived via in-vitro fertilization. We harvested 6 embryos at that time; 2 were implanted at the time Laila was conceived and 4 were frozen.
We have decided we're ready for #2 (and, potentially #3!) so I was implanted yesterday with 2 more of the frozen embryos! We won't know for a few weeks if they attach and I am pregnant, but we've taken the first step. Here's a photo of our teeny embryos in the petri-dish before the transfer. Both of them are about 100 cells right now. Technology is so amazing.

Gotta admit...they look just like you. :)
We've been praying over the little egglets. And Collin's knee, of course. And your mom. Yes...your mom.
Love you all~
That picture is amazing! I wish I had a picture of myself at that age :)
Praying for you guys! Love you!
Have been praying that everything all goes wonderful for ALL of you. Baby/babies and Of course Collin healing up nicely.
Love all of you including your mom.
That's amazing that you have a picture of the embryos. Praying for you guys! So exciting! At least you are both on bed rest today and maybe can hangout and watch movies?? Loved all of Laila's bday pics too!!!
Lots of prayers headed your way daily Heather! We hope for success and that Collin is feeling better.
