It's been almost a year since I've updated here but everyone in the entire world knows what's been going on in 2020. Luckily the pandemic hasn't changed our lives too much since I stay home with Graham and Brad has mostly always worked from home anyway. Some of the highlights of this year were:
- Celebrating Graham's birthday with friends and family in May
- Watching him be a ring bearer this summer in his cousin's wedding
- Going trick or treating in our neighborhood after stopping by our local station first.
Overall we've had a great 2020 despite all the madness out in the world. We will certainly never forget our sweet boy's second year of life and have been fortunate to stay well all year.

Because of Covid it has taken us quite a while to get back on the saddle again with ttc but we are finally here! Katie has been a trooper with all of the many delays and she finally had her suppression check from Lupron yesterday and she is good to start her estrogen shots on Thursday! We wanted a nice thin lining yesterday with low estrogen and that's exactly what we got. We are so thankful she is still willing to go through this again with us. We are praying this transfer leads to the end of surrogacy journeys but we have certainly made a friend for life through this process.

| Nice and thin! |
The next lining check is November 30. If that looks good then the transfer is scheduled for December 10! Our transfer this time last year was on December 12 so I'm assuming the beta will be December 21 which is our 18th year anniversary. Please God let this be the right timing for us. We would love nothing more than to give Graham a baby brother or sister (or both!) We are able to transfer two embryos at once this time so we are praying that both will take of course since we believe in life at conception but one healthy baby is always the goal. We are still taking Romans 12:12 to heart but we're praying that our patience in affliction is coming to an end for an incredible Christmas gift this year!
