Big Day

Today is a big day at the Chronicles. Not only is it my second blogoversary, but Luigi is three months old today!

Unfortunately, my wifi is down, so I'm down to just my phone to write this post, which means I will be keeping it simple. But I couldn't let the day pass without acknowledging how far I've come in two years.

The first year of this blog was about treatments. I was waiting for my 5th iui/2nd injectable cycle to start when I first wrote. I'm eternally grateful for the connections and support I found in that first year. I don't think I would have survived without it.

The second year of this blog was about pregnancy, and learning how to parent. I think I was waiting for cycle day 1 last year so that I could start stimming for my third IVF cycle, the one that would result in my precious Luigi. Reading the pregnancy and parenting stories of those who struggled before me were an invaluable preparation for the joys and trials of parenthood.

The third year of this blog will undoubtably be about parenting. Whether or not it will also be about a continued struggle with trying to conceive is yet to be determined. For the moment, I'm content to soak in the cuddles and smiles of my darling little Luigi.

Many of you have been lucky enough to achieve your goals in the time I've been blogging, but so many of you are still waiting to resolve your parenting stories. I know it probably hasn't always been way to stick with my evolving story. I thank you for reading and commenting, and I hope every day that you will all be mommies soon!

And with that, I'll leave you with a quick picture of Luigi. I haven't managed to take his official three month photo yet, big surprise!
