This is a fun weekly post!  Taylor over at 'Jimmy Choos & a Baby Too' hosts the Top 2 Tuesday post.  Every week she posts the category and you have to name your top 2.  :)  Here's her link if you'd like to join in:



So, this week's category:

Dream Vacations

Oh boy...this is definitely a tough one!  I have so many dream vacations I'd love to go on.  So, I'll just choose two that are somewhat realistic.  ;)

1.  Hawaii - I've always wanted to go to Hawaii.  DH and I were actually considering Hawaii for our honeymoon, but, since we were paying for most of our wedding, we decided Hawaii was just a bit too expensive for our budget.  Hopefully some day soon we'll be able to take our dream vaca!

 2.  Alaska - Now, I am the first to admit that I am the biggest fan of warm, sandy beaches, surrounded by sun and palm trees.  But, there's just something about Alaska, the nature surrounding it, and the beauty of it all that intrigues me.  I think an Alaskan cruise would be the perfect way to see it all, without having to be stuck in one cold spot for too long.  ;)  And, everyone that I've known who has been there, has absolutely LOVED it.

New look....again

I was really bored since I'm stuck at home because of the snow.  So, I decided that I'd change my look again.  Maybe this will be a monthly thing, since I get bored so easily with backgrounds. 

Anyways, I hope you like it!  DH helped me pick it out.  ;)

CD 10!!

Woot woooot!  :D

Sorry, I'm just getting really excited as 'O' day gets closer and closer.  hehe 

That is all.  Have a great day!

AW: Just had to share...

I have the best hubby EVAH.  :)  He gave me part of my Valentine's Day gift early yesterday, and we're going to NYC next weekend to see Phantom of the Opera!!  I'm so psyched.  I saw this play on broadway about 12 years ago, and it's been my favorite play ever since.  I've been dying to go see it again....woot woot!  Oh, and, we're sitting in the orchestra section, about 3 rows from the stage.  Seriously?!  I cannot wait to see the masquerade/chandelier scene that close up....eeek!  If you've ever seen the play/movie before, you know how awesome it is.

And, on a TTC note...I'm pretty sure I'll be O'ing at some point next weekend, so I'm definitely going to have lots of reasons to 'celebrate'.  Teehee.  ;)

Happy Superbowl Sunday!!  Goooo Saints!

It's almost Friday!

Yay!  I feel like this week has been draaaaging on for so long.  And, I'm pretty sure it has to do with the fact that I'm just counting down the days until O time, so James and I can try baby making again.  I honestly feel like that's ALL I think about now.  It's making me crazy.  Especially now that my SIL is pregnant, and that's all we talk about at work (SIL and I work together, by the way)....I want a baby more than anything.  I actually just told James the other day that it's hurting my heart....you know, when you want something so badly, but you don't know if you'll ever get it?  That's how I feel.  And, I know I shouldn't really feel this way yet.  It's just so hard for me not knowing if we're going to be able to have a family....and if we can, how long it's going to take us. 

I've just been in such a funk these last couple of days.  Hopefully this feeling will pass, and I'll be able to start thinking more positively as the days go by.  And, I'm sorry this is ending up to be just a random post and me venting the whole time, but, I just felt like I had to get it out.

So anyways....I hope everyone has a great weekend!  And, I just wanted to send out tons of labor dust to my friend, Kendra!  She's due to have Baby M any day now, and I know she's ready (and we are, too! ;) ).  So, lots of luck to her that she goes into labor this weekend....woot woot! 

Here's just a little something to hopefully brighten up someone's day a bit...I know he always puts a smile on my face.  :)  It's my sleepy Fozzie Bear...aww. 

AF is finally here

On to cycle #3.  The only good news about this past cycle, is that at least my LP was longer...woohoo!  Hopefully it stays that way. 

I'm definitely starting to temp/chart this month....and I'm actually pretty excited about that.  I also plan on having sex with James every other day for the entire month (after AF, of course).  lol  Well, maybe not the entire month, but a lot more than we usually do. 

And, in other exciting news....we just found out last night that James' brother and SIL are expecting!  We're all very happy for them....but, it was definitely a big shock, for me at least (They always made it seem like they didn't want kids for a long time).  We didn't even know they were trying, and ended up getting pregnant on their first try.  Very lucky!  And, I was always the one to say that we should get pregnant at the same time.  I've always wanted to have someone to go through pregnancy with, esp. BIL and SIL, since we're so close with them.  So, I'm trying to stay positive and keep my fingers crossed that we get lucky in the next couple of cycles. 

So, I think I'm out....

This cycle, that is.  :(

I know we haven't been trying for very long, but, I'm really, really disappointed.  It sucks.  I don't know why, but, I just thought that this was a good cycle for us.  I think it was my first +OPK that got me all excited, and I thought we had our timing down pretty well (I know timing isn't the only thing needed to get pregnant, that's for sure....I was just being hopeful).

But anyways...on to (officially) cycle #3 now.  I know AF isn't here yet....but, I'm almost 99% positive she'll make her ugly appearance at some point tonight or tomorrow.  At least I'm prepared now, though!  I have a decent stock of OPK's and I'm starting to temp/chart this next cycle, as well.  So, hopefully I'll pinpoint my O date even better, and we'll get lucky this next cycle.  *crosses fingers*

Now I'm just relaxing on my couch, feeling just a little sorry for myself (hey, I know it's still early for us, but that doesn't make BFN's any easier), and drinking some delicious wine.  Mmmm! 

Would anyone like a glass??  Feel free to join me!  ;)
