New Years is coming....

Well its been quite a while since I have posted anything....I've tried a few times and it wouldn't allow the post to go through, so then I just give up. For the New Year I am going to work hard to try and post more often.

Adrian is doing great in school he is so smart! Only problem is he talks a LOT!! I am so happy I took so much time with him when he was home all the time working on "school" stuff.

I have been doing some babysitting since August its been a lot of fun and has made me realize that I want to finish my degree in Early Childhood Education, after that I am going to look into Childrens Ministry because thats just where I feel I need to be heading.

Thanksgiving and Christmas went well. Adrians 6th birthday was right after Thanksgiving, we had a very small party Transformers themed...

No baby yet...we shall see what the new year brings us...

....funny things in life....

So I was thinking today....things that use to excite us as children and teenagers no longer make me excited! What does are really strange things being a mom and house wife now, for instance a few weeks ago i needed to buy a shower curtain liner it made me so happy to have it a $2.97 shower curtain liner!! And today I went to walmart and bought some Dawn dishliquid...dishliquid!! I hate doing dishes yet it made me really excited to go buy it wth!! ha ha

Just something that i was thinking about...........

update on ttc

SO.....I just finished friday night my 2nd round of clomid..The 1st round i successfully ovulated (according to the dr BUT my # was only 10.9, and I looked it up and on a medicated cycle my number should have been well over 15) BUT my dr seems to think its going great so I will keep trying...I am possibly 5 days from ovulation right now..I am charting and taking temps everyday...so I should know by monday...lol keep your fingers crossed for me

pregnancy shows

I watch these shows on a regular basis, they drive me crazy, but I still watch them. This morning I was watching Make Room for Multiples, and I saw something pretty exciting, the woman who was having triplets hired a doula to help comfort her before and after the c-section she had to have. 2 of the 3 babies were left in NICU for a while and when the parents went back to the hospital the doula came over to care for the baby at home and immediately put the baby into a moby wrap!
I just thought it was neat to see a doula on these shows I have seen midwives but never a doula and I just thought it was really neat!

OBGYN APPT

well...My original appt was scheduled for the 22nd, due to multipule issues in the drs life yesterday she had to reschedule but very quickly I went in today. Here is our course of action....
The dr agrees that I am not ovulating every month, so I will be on clomid for 5 days during my next cycle...I did a lot of blood work today and will go back in roughly 25 days for more. Bright side...only a 5% chance of having twins on clomid..lol, I would just die!! But one of the downsides to going with the Drs here...I may consider alternatives....the dr informed me I may have to have another c-section! She said its not my only option but because of the reasons I had one in the first place...so I am not going to hold onto that thought entirely..push it to the back of my mind...let me get pregnant first
Oh....My brother in law and his wife are expecting!! I am so excited to be an aunt...she heard the heart beat today!! she is due sept 17th!!

New ideas

So I really like to cook...a lot. For Christmas I was given a beginners decorators kit from Matts aunt..mini muffin pans from Mom and a Train Cake Pan from Alicia (totally cute!)...for my birthday Matt got me a stand mixer which is great because I am tired of having to turn off my hand mixer to add my ingredients...VERY annoying.
I also like to try new recipes out, tonight I made homemade spaghetti sauce it was pretty good...my meatballs were too plain and I am not sure what I did with those tonight since I have made them several times before.
So I just might start blogging about things that I am trying out too...maybe it will motivate me to actually get up here and blog...I am way behind on TONS of things...like my baby not being a baby anymore...lol, he just does all of these things I wasn't sure he could do....just too smart can't wait for him to start school...
Also, for those of you who are close to me (somewhat lol) know that i have been trying to get pregnant for over a year now, on the 22nd I am going to the OBGYN to talk to someone about it...cross your fingers its nothing major.

drs appts, work and more

Well yesterday, 1-24-11, I went to the orthopedic surgeon for a gangelion cyst in my L wrist well right now the Dr is just giving me some Mobic and a splint to wear for 3 wks and he is hoping to shrink it. I go back on the 14th of February and if it hasn't gone down then the Dr is going to pop it with a needle and last resort will be surgery...
so as far as work goes...I went to a Regional Rally January 14th and 15th and got to see the brand new Spring Line, awesome!! They also introduced a new promotion for double hostess benefits! What a great promotion thats $50 for each bonus we give to our hostesses! I am so excited thats for the whole month of February..also i am going to have my renewal show on February the 19th at noon and I want ALL of my friends to come and bring a guest (or your moms and sisters!!!) PLEASE COME HAVE SOME FUN WITH ME!!!!
I have started exercising...a pain with the wrist pain, lol, so hopefully the dr can help fix it. Well thats all right now...love you all

new year, new beginnings

This week I went to the DR because I found a cyst in my hand which if you know me, the L wrist has been bothering me since about 7th grade (YAY) well the cyst is quite large so I decided to be seen, and now I have to make an appt with Ortho on monday...
Also while there I was given a referral to GYN, things have been pretty crazy with my body lately and I have been trying to get pregnant for over a year so they are sending me out. Super! I of course will post an update as soon as I figure out whats going to happen.

Also this month (next weekend actually) I am going to Philly for my very first Rally with Premier Designs Jewelry! I am super excited to go to this because I really love this business. I woke with a really great team of ladies.
Sometime soon I am going to have a photo shoot with Devon Shanor who is also a Premier Designs jeweler, I won it around thanksgiving I am very excited to do this shoot.

Until next time.....
