Today was an exciting day at work! My interview this morning didn't end up being an interview at all. Based on the previous conversations I've had with the hiring manager and his manager over the past couple of weeks and the positive feedback they received from others, they decided to extend an offer to me. He said a couple times that I seem to have "quite a few fans" within the company. :) I was kind of hoping the interview was more of a formality, but was ready for a formal interview. Needless to say, I was REALLY relieved when he skipped over it and went right into the offer. HR sent me an official offer letter - but my current manager asked me to wait to sign it. But I definitely plan to accept their offer next week and look forward to this new chapter in my career to begin. Even though I'm super-excited, I am sad that I won't get to work as closely with the operational folks that I've gotten to know. It will be a little out of my comfort zone and I'll have to prove myself all over again - but I think I'm up for the challenge.
Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great. - Mark Twain
Congratulations!! Of course we aren't surprised, we know how great you are! :)

My husband and I got married in 2005 and tried to start our family back in January 2008. We started our 1st round of in-vitro in December 2010 - which is when this blog was started. Despite a near perfect cycle, it resulted in a negative pregnancy test in February 2011. We were fortunate to get 6 extra embryos from that cycle that were frozen. In March 2011 we started a Frozen Embryo Transfer cycle. Despite another great cycle (on paper), all 6 of our frozen embryos had to be thawed to get 2 good ones for transfer - which failed to result in a pregnancy. In 2012, we took the first half of the year off and then tried a couple rounds of IUI with and without fertility shots - still no baby. In 2013, we did our 2nd round of in-vitro with my sister offering to be our gestational carrier. We ended up transferring 2 embryos into each of us and were blessed to welcome 4 babies in October 2013.
