Well, today is Aaron's first day being on the night shift- he just left for class. (It takes 30 minutes to drive up to black tower from the main gate). Although it was nice having him home all day (and not getting woken up by his alarm at 3am!), I feel like now I won't know what to do with myself all afternoon and night. Dinner, for instance. It's ( Read more... )

It's Friday, finally. Well, I guess I really shouldn't say it like that... because this week has flown by. But still. I look forward to the weekends so much because I finally get to spend time with Aaron without him complaining about his day at work or being exhausted. Butttt, that is about to change! Starting Monday, Aaron will be on nights, ( Read more... )

I don't know why, but I've been feeling extra emotional lately. I just got the most affectionate, tender "goodnight" from my husband ever :) Probably because he feels bad because we decided to skip tonight in the baby making spree... which I'm a little disappointed about (FertilityFriend is basically SCREAMING at me to hop in the sack today), but ( Read more... )

Now, I'm sure none of you really care about this but...
According to various ovulation calculators/calendars... my fertility window opens today! WOO HOO! Let the baby making begin ( Read more... )

Our Easter wasn't too conventional, but oh well. While most people were opening easter baskets, hunting for eggs, and having big family dinners, we were hiking, playing in the water, and picnicking by Garden creek. We ended up spending the day in Garden Canyon [which is on post]. It was really nice. In fact, we're probably going back again next ( Read more... )

Last night we picked up prenatal vitamins and Emmergen-C (hubs is MAJORLY sick. No joke. I swear, he's threatening to cough up his left lung). The cashier looked down at the pill bottle and grinned, then looked at Aaron and said, "You know how sometimes they say the husband gets morning sickness? I think you've got it." I just stood there with this ( Read more... )

Well, after a long talk yesterday, Aaron and I have made a decision.
We're going to start trying to conceive.
Can anyone say yay???
For the first few months, we will try it more naturally- without bothering with ovulation tests and the like right now. I don't want to get too focused on it and start stressing out like a lot of couples end up doing ( Read more... )

My husband confuses me. I asked him if (or when) he wanted to start actually trying to start a family, and he said not for another year or so. (Or so? As in MORE than a year?!) Yettt he was SO EXCITED when we thought we were pregnant like two days ago... and he even admitted a second after answering that he wants a baby NOW. I guess he's just being ( Read more... )

I love Fridays. My husband comes home in a great mood ready to drink some wine and stay up super late with me for once ♥ We're getting ready to watch a movie now.
Kody goes to the vet tomorrow for a checkup and his rabies shot :] He turned eleven weeks old today. I'm curious to see how much he weighs- I'm guessing around twenty pounds ( Read more... )

Today was absolutely wonderful.It certainly didn't start off that way- I intended to wake up early, but the alarm didn't go off, so I didn't end up waking up (mind you, I didn't manage to fall asleep until around 9am) until about 1pm. This put me in an instant bad mood- I looked at myself in the mirror and decided to skip the shower, threw my hair ( Read more... )
