So my mom's birthday was the 12th of February. That was over two months ago. Gee whiz, Margaret. There's a shot of her blowing out her candles. That's my wacky brother poking his face in. UPDATE: AS YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE, THERE IS NO PICTURE. MY MOTHER - WHO IS COMPLETELY BEAUTIFUL - INSISTED THAT I REMOVE IT AT ONCE. :-P
Next is my daddy and the boys from today's trip to Santee Canal Park. I had to drag him, he was tired, but I think he had a good time.
On another note, I'm crazy. I am only on cycle day number 18 of our fist month trying to conceive, and I've already taken 4 pregnancy tests. I'm psycho. They've all been negative of course. I can really be one obsessive lunatic when I let myself be. I hide my craziness pretty well usually. I guess I just let the cat out of the bag.

I am sure that when Caleb and I start trying, I will be taking a zillion preggo tests! Haha! You and yer fam sure are cute!
Just so you know, I've seen pregnancy tests that claim to be over 99% accurate at the Dollar Tree. Might be a good way to do it without feeling too guilty about the expense.
Why thank you, Julia. :-) Now I think I'll go stock up!
MARGO... CHILL OUT!!! You realize the more anxious you are about getting pregnant... the harder it will be to do so!! I saw on TV an ovulation test... try that. But seriously, take a weekend away with hubster, take a bottle of wine or two... and just enjoy... the process. =] Relax. Baby girl will be here soon enough... don't rush it. Savor it.
When Brandon and I start trying, I have told myself that I want to enjoy all of it. I don't want to let my mind get all crazy.. I want to relax and enjoy the whole thing. The excitement of wondering... taking the test(s)... I want it all to go in slow motion, because one day it will all be gone... and I want vivid memories... I want to be surprised when the test says "pregnant"!! Not relieved or over anxious... Then I want to tell hubby.. and then just sit on the info for a while before we tell anyone... just to hold that close to my heart for a day or two... THEN drive to KY to share it with my folks, who have no grandbabies... and tell them face to face! Yea, I've thought about all of this..
Love you much! Hang in there honey!!
A weekend get away? I wish! Those went out the window after baby number one was born! ;-)
Thanks Stace. XXXX
Margo... MAKE TIME AND PLAN FOR A WEEKEND GETAWAY... IT CAN BE DONE... Yes, I know you are thinking, "you can say that Stacey, 'cause you don't have any kids..." No, I say that because hubby and I made up our minds that we would MAKE time for each other... and make time for getaways without kids... You CAN do it. Even if it is only one night!! I'm praying you get some romantic time away!!!
If I was close I would happily take your kids for the weekend.
I hope things work quick!!=)
Cute pics with grandpa...and it has been nice seeing YOU in pictures!
That's sweet Donna! :-)
I always feel like I'm bothering people when I ask them to watch my kids, Stacey. I know it can be done, but I hate to put people out. We spend time together as a family a lot though. We're going to the zoo for the weekend this weekend. :-)
Margo, I am sorry if my tone sounded mean or judging or anything that made you feel bad. Later in the day I thought about what I posted and thought I may have sounded too harsh. I did not mean it that way at all. I just wanted to be strongly encouraging. I know you are happy and have wonderful family time! You are amazing! And I would never want to hurt your feelings in any way!! That baby girl will be here sooner than you think!! Love you!!
Happy BDay Bam!
Oh, Stacey, you didn't sound harsh at all! I appreciate and need your encouragment! I love you!
Hey Lori - Start a blog. Then I could leave you comments! It would be fun. :-)
u are too cute

Miss Go-Go,
I am soooo glad I did not sound harsh! I love you too! I'd hate for my tongue flappin (or finger tappin' the keys) to ruin a good thing! *wink* Love you much!!!
