my cup runneth over


Yesterday my heart was filled with so much joy as I received messages from Shahar and Udi and Matan letting me know that they would like to meet each other! Who would have thought that this girl from Portland, Oregon would be connected with two absolutely amazing families in Israel. I cannot wait to hear all about their meeting and to see what the future holds for all of us! One of my dearest friends, Kalee said to me, "It's like you found the greatest people in Israel and picked them out special." I feel like the luckiest girl in the world to be part of something so amazing for another family. Shahar couldn't have said it better, "We will all be one big, happy family!!" 

This is week two taking delestrogen injections and I will have a blood test and ultrasound on Thursday. This will determine when I start my daily progesterone injections and stop the lupron injections. As long as everything looks good, the embryo transfer is scheduled for 2 weeks from tomorrow!! 

A friend of mine is also a surrogate for a family in Israel. Her embryo transfer is scheduled for next Thursday, February 19th! I am so so excited for her and her intended family. A special "sticky" treat will be delivered by yours truly to make sure those babies stick around for the long haul. It worked for Elly and Daniel so fingers crossed it works for their precious little peanuts too! Please send your sticky thoughts out to Ashley and her intended family! You can follow her journey here!

Nothing makes this momma more proud than the unconditional love that our children have developed along this journey. They have hearts made of gold! Today, my daughter's teacher shared with me that once again, Addy shared with her class that I am going to have babies put in my tummy for another family in Israel. "Some families have two Mommy's, some families have two Daddy's and some families have a Mommy and Daddy. My Mommy is having babies for two Daddy's. Their names are Udi and Matan." ❤️❤️❤️

My cup runneth over!
