Not sure where to start....

Hmmm....I've had 2 friends get pg recently & although I'm so happy for them....I really wish I was ttc too. I looked at my calendar again just to see if it would be possible for us to try one more month right now, but it really isn't. If I stopped my bcp today & I had a normal 30 day cycle & got pg.....I'd be taking a 7 week old to Disney World & I'd only be 7 weeks out from having a c/s. That just wouldn't work! I really don't think I'd be up to walking miles everyday so soon after major surgery. Oh well. I do think I'll stop the bcp in March....I'd thought about waiting until April, but I'm so ready to have another baby that I really don't think I can wait!

Beyond the ttc stuff....we went camping 2 weekends ago & had a blast! We roasted marshmallows & hot dogs & were basically pretty lazy all weekend! LOL! It was so nice!

This weekend we'll be going back to our college's homecoming & then staying a few days with my extended family to visit! I can hardly wait! Darling & I went clothes shopping yesterday & I found some really cute stuff! I realized that I hadn't bought myself any new clothes in a YEAR!! Good grief! I just kept thinking that I'd lose more weight & then I'd buy new clothes....I was just punishing myself! Anyway...I'll be so cute this weekend.....I'm really praying that the Lord will help me keep those fat lies out of my head. (All of our friends from college are super skinny. I'm the ONLY one who struggles seriously with weight) "I WILL NOT listen to that ugly voice that tells me I'm disgustingly fat....I'm beautiful & I'm working on being healthy!!" That's what I tell myself a LOT!

Ok, I've got to get Cady started on school! Maybe we'll go ahead & get tomorrow's work out of the way so I can clean & pack for this weekend!....We'll see!!

Have a great Wednesday!!

I'm SO behind!!

Oh, MY! I came down with a virus Monday morning & I'm just now back on my feet! That means that Cady missed a day of school, plus I wanted to finish her week today!! We are having to really work hard to accomplish that & at 1:10pm we are still working! We will finish....it'll just take some time!
The temperature has dropped a little for this weekend & it looks like it will be a gorgeous weekend for camping!! I can hardly wait to sit around the fire & go hiking! There's a cool front coming in next week & I'd be A-OK with it coming NOW!! LOL! The colder it is while camping, the happier I am! I'm just hoping to get everything done that needs to get done! This will be my last post this week because of being so busy! Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Ooo!! Just remembered something! I just HAVE to share! My SIL went on a DATE Sunday night! One of the coaches at the middle school asked her to go to his home church & then out to dinner with his college friends! YAY! My SIL is such a homebody & rarely ventures out of her comfort zone....I'm so proud of her & really hope that this "friendship" moves into something more!! She's 28....& my kids need some cousins!! LOL!! Thanks for letting me share! Bye!

Started bcp last night...

I did it. I took "the pill" last night. I didn't think it would be so hard. I was really sad & cried about it. It almost feels like we're giving up. I know in my mind that we aren't, but my heart hasn't talked with my mind lately! ;o) I know this ttc break will be a good thing....I really need to lose some serious weight & I know I won't if there is still the chance that I could be pg. (don't ask me why!)

We're supposed to go camping this weekend...well, we ARE going....it's our friends that were supposed to come with us that might not. The forcast calls for next weekend to be really HOT & they aren't really sure that they want to tent camp in 90 degrees! (In the 60's at night though!) So, it may just be a family trip....which would really be ok. I'm actually hoping to do some shopping on Saturday....there's a Hallmark in town!! The nearest one to my home is an HOUR away!! Just shoot me now! LOL! That is torture for a Hallmark addict like myself! We plan on cooking a really yummy breakfast Sat & Sun mornings...fried biscuits, bacon & eggs....we'll hike & play board games....& if it gets cool enough at night we'll roast marshmallows over the fire! Yummy! I can hardly wait! Cady has Fri. off of school....one of the advantages of homeschooling is that I can plan around our little vacations!....& she is really excited about having a long weekend!

Ok! I'd better run....I hear laundry calling me & choir practice starts really soon! Happy Sunday!
