Here We Go!

Well.... had AF and now time has come to start trying again. I will get my shot before I am due for ovulation so that is good timing. I can't wait. I am realistic that it may not happen right out of the gate. I am getting older.... 35 on the 3rd of October .... and it does get a little harder as you get older. But wouldn't it be cool to conceive on my birthday? Well, right now I am playing games on FB and trying to cool off. Been a crazy morning out with my boy! He is so handsome and soooo much fun to be around. He's almost 2 and such a joy. He has one of those smiles that when he does something wrong.... you just CAN'T be mad at him. Tonight studying and tomorrow family pictures at the beach! I can't wait they are going to be so cool! Well, gotta go but I will update more later on! God Bless and baby dust!

Plans On Hold and Joyful Celebration

Well, our plans have been put on hold. I was accepted to UFC this fall. Along with that came the requirement (which I was unaware of) of my immunization records. Ok. I am 34 years old. Where do they think I am going to get my immunization records from. Tried the Health Department (where I got a few of them) and nada. Tried the High School I graduated from; they did not start adding immunizations to their transcripts until AFTER I graduated. So.... no one had them. So I ended up taking a titer to see if I was immune. And wouldn't you know it.... I am immune to one but not the other. Which they say is common to lose immunity after a while. So I have to get a series of 2 shots. During which I can't get pregnant. At least I can't get it WHILE pregnant. Got the first shot on the 4th. Have to get the next one the beginning of next month and then we can be good to go. Meanwhile I spent to tiring but wonderful days at the hospital with my sister. She allowed me the privilege of being with her during the birth of her son. It was, to say the least, AMAZING!!!!!! I had a mixture of sadness that I would not be experiencing that joy anytime soon and the joy I felt seeing little Gavin born. One of my sisters asked me if it was gross. I told her "well yeah (because of the blood) but it was more beautiful than gross!" During the birth I started crying when I saw the top of his little head. The Dr. stopped what he was doing and asked, "Are you crying?" "Yes" I said as tears streamed down my face. The nurse told him they were happy tears. All I could do was nod and cry with 'joyful' tears. It was so awesome and I am forever grateful to my sister for letting me be there for her and her family. Good night sister and bless you little Gavin!
