Sorry I have been MIA the past few weeks, I will keep this short and sweet..Found out Dp was cheating on me the week before Christmas..We have only been back together for 3 months. Merry Christmas to me right....

I have some really good news!! Dp's company got bought out by GE a few months ago, the complete aquisition does not go into effect until Jan 1,2008. She recieved her benefits package yesterday and she is allowed to carry me on her insurance. I read through her benefits last night and they are fantastic. The whole coverage is better than what I have right now, and alot of infertility is covered. That of which is not covered on my plan. So needless to say I will be switching over to her insurance come the first of the year. So now the question is do we go ahead with a home AI in january or jsut skip it all together, go ahead and see a fertility specialist, and do an IUI? Any comments or suggestions would be greatly appreciated..

Christmas shopping is almost complete and I am so thrilled, as we are typically the people on Christmas eve that are still trying to shop. All I have left is my mom and Dp but its all planned out what they are getting its just a matter of actually going to pick things up. I actually broke down and bought Braylon a playstation last night, I swore that I never would and I know that he is only 5, but his interests have begun to change and he is starting to like bigger boy toys, so if anything I know that he will be really attached to it as he is to his leapster, but his playtime will be limited. I am figuring since time outs, and other forms of punishment dont seem to work on him, these two items will come in handy as far as his behavior, if he misbehaves he loses his gaming privlieges..We will see how long it works!!!

In other news AF arrived yesterday, right on time so my cycles seem to be back in order which is exactly what I need, I am almost 99% sure we will be doing our first AI next month, if everything goes according to plan. I think that we will give it a go about 2 or 3 more times at home, and if nothing results then we will move on to a fertility specialist, but considering we only tried once since getting the pipes cleared out, I am hoping we wont have to go that route. Although I am still concerened about my periods, cause they are so heavy and I have so much clotting I am just so paranoid about that affecting implantation, I have spoken to my doctor about it and he doesnt seem to think its anything to worry about, so therefore I am also trying not to worry about it..Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Not too much going on around here, mostly just gearing up for the holidays. Work has been pretty boring lately not much going on around there either. I am beyond ready to start TTC, I have the babyfever worst than ever right now. I will be doing my dreaded christmas shopping this weekend, I am so ready to get it over with, I have pretty much everything figured out that I am getting everyone..Dp is my only hard one I know one thing she wants but I am having a hard time figuring out more. I want to send a huge Congrats to Meg and Kris, I am so excited about ur long awaited BFP...!!!!

Things are going great and could not be better! I got my test results back from my TSH check and they were great 1.6 to be exact, which the doctor said was perfectly normal. The holiday season is going pretty good, I have to do teh bulk of my christmas shoppin next weekend, Im pretty excited about that, and cant wait to get it done. I am beyond ready to get on with TTC, Dp and I had a discussion in Target last night, because everytime I see something really cute for a little girl, I tell her that I need it for "MY little girl", she proceeds to tell me that I do not have a little girl yet, and I told her that yes I do she is made up in my mind and her name is Anabelle!!! SHe thinks that its hillarious, although I dont really find it all that funny!!! My child is addicted to his Leapster that we got him for his birthday, I swear we couldnt have gotten him a better gift..It is that time of year to get a few boxes and have Braylon go through his toys and fill a few boxes to donate to the children who dont get any toys for christmas, he has a really hard time understanding that there are children who do not recieve toys for christmas, but we try to teach him that he is doing a good deed, and he is very blessed to recieve all the goodies that he has, but it is also good to give to the less fortunate..Thats all for now time to go do some work..Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Sorry it has taken so long to get pictures posted up from the decorating and stuff..Bray had a great birthday even though it poured down raining all day long and we lost electricity for about 2 hours we had a great time. I can hardly believe my little man is 5. It is time to get this babymaking on the ball. I had some bloodwork done last week, my doctor wanted to check out my thyroid adn make sure its functioning properly. I am patiently waiting for the results, I doubt anything is wrong but I repsect him for wantign to check. He put my on Effexor to help with my depression and anxiety, I have read that its not really safe for pregnancy, so Im not sure how long I will be taking it, I have a great doctor though, that has given me free samples to last for a month, to see if it works for me before I start paying for it. Hope everyone has a great week, adn is enjoying the holiday shopping season!!

To start off, I hope that everyone had a very good Thanksgiving..Ours was great. We did get all the outside decorations up, and I did take pictures just have not had a chance to upload them yet..I promise I will get them on here..It came out really good, we did things a little bit different this year. Hopefully we will be able to get the inside done this weekend, but we have Braylons birthday party and all kinds of stuff going on..Oh and yes my baby turns 5 this sunday..I cant wait for his party, we were originally gonna have it outside with a fum jump and hot dogs and all that good stuff, but you know we live in South Louisiana, and the temp is like 40 degrees with a 100% chance of rain all weekend...Its fantastic gumbo weather!!
