well, last month was a bust. I *think* i will be ovulating within the next week, so we will see how this cycle goes. i've stopped thinking i'll get pregnant. it is just something i do every month..lol.. the one thing that keeps me going is that my grandparents were married 15 years before she got pregnant and a good friend of mine tried for 5 years before she got pregnant. also, next april we will be doing IVF if we dont have luck before then, so that is only 10 cycles until ivf. so i keep on keepin on :)

thanks for all the support you guys show. your awesome!!

well, i never ovulated last week cause my temps never went up. so this week i have had 4 days of positive opk's again. here's hoping my temp goes up tomorrow. otherwise i give up on this cycle.. lol.. stay tuned for the next episode of THE LOST EGG

:D

long time no post

i'm so bad at keeping up my blog! i'm sorry. This week has been rather interesting. monday morning i was cleaning out my van and got my toe stuck in the little hole on the floorboard where the seat clicks in. Nearly ripped my baby toe off. so i woke tami up and said "babe, can you look at my toe and tell me if you think i need to go to the dr". to which she replied "oh my GOD, you need to go to the ER".. lol.. so off i went to the ER and ended up getting a tetanus shot and 5 stitches in my little toe. not what i wanted to spend my monday doing.lol. then later that day i went over to our baby daddy's house and picked up baby juice. came home with it and put the swimmers where they belong. this time we used the catheter to put the swimmers right on top of the cervical opening. today is 2dpo so with any luck this will be the month, but we've been at this for so long that i won't hold my breath. Hope everyone is having a better week than i am.. lol

finally, i am on cycle day 27 and only 4dpo. my body just didnt wanna ovulate this month. bugger. Sorry i havent posted much i have been so busy. For the girls on the nw board, i want to congratulate the recent bfp's and give big hugs to those who are still trying. tammy and michelle, i follow both of your posts and wish only the best for you both, you deserve it! aradia, yay, your gonna be back on the train!!! whoo hoooo!!!! everyone else, we will all get that wonderful little miracle we so deserve! :)

well, we are now on cd 5 again. :( our plan is this. we will have money for ivf in one year from now. so we will continue trying on our own until then and if no luck by then we will do ivf. :)

not much else is new around here. It is bike week in daytona. so i sit here watching bikes drive by wishing i weren't at work.. lol

on the train again

today is 1dpo after our month break. we are having a lot of breaks lately.. lol.. but that is ok, it will happen when it is time for it to happen :) My temp hiked WAY high today.. lol.. so i know that i ovulated yesterday. here's hoping this one takes :D

i want to say a special congrats to michelle and nick. i'm so thrilled for them! i hope this baby/babies stick and they will have a wonderful, happy and healthy new life in guam

not much else is going on here with us. Busy with homeschooling cody and keeping up with our store. lol.. did i mention we have an online store too? www.allthingspride.com (bad laine, bad! shameful plug..lol) This weekend we are going to tampa for their winter pride festival. so if anyone is in the area pop on over and say HI to us ..

we're back!

we are back and we had a great time! i have decided i want to LIVE on a cruise ship! we met a lot of great ladies on the cruise and made some great friends. Everyone on the ship was just wonderful, helpful and made the cruise a great experience. We went to nassau bahamas, it was gorgeous there. however, we only got off the ship for a few hours as there are a lot of people in nassau that hover you wanting you to buy stuff from them, lol.. Below are a few pictures..

BON VOYAGE

WELL,tomorrow we go on the cruise. :D yay, i will come back sunday with lots of great stories, i'm sure!
on the ttc front, i ovulated 5 days earlier than normal so we missed it and were not able to try this month, but that is ok. now i can drink a pina colada on the ship and not feel guilty :D
I also want to give an extra hug to tammy w and to cindy f. they have both had a rough week or two and so i just wanted to send out a virtual hug for them! big warm fuzzy huggy woo woo's.
BON VOYAGE!

well, af came a few days ago so i'm now on cd3. blah! oh well, i'm not going to concern myself being upset about it this cycle cause we only have 18 days till teh cruise i'll probably be in the tww during teh cruise, which means a stress free tww, which is always a good thing.. yay!
