Weekend updates

Nothing too crazy or too exciting happened this weekend. Here's a recap of all that went on:

-Missed my husband like crazy, since he works nights (Wed-Sat). I really have trouble sleeping without him. One would think that after over 2 years of this I would have learned to deal with it...not so much. So, if you are one of those woman that have the blessing of getting to have their husbands home everynight...hold them a little extra tight tonight, kiss them one more time and ask God to help you not to take those special moments for granted. I will say, it has definitely helped me to really appreciate him being home the other three nights (it's like Christmas morning!!).

-The Rangers and the Cowboys lost. Boo.

-The Aggies won. WHOOP!

-We drove southbound 35 to pick up some old baby stuff from my SIL. Their little one is going to be 3 in January and they are not having anymore (another story for another time) and so they are giving away a lot of their old baby stuff. My MIL helps women who are in crisis pregnancies and so she is going to use some of that for those moms and then she said that her and I are going to go through the stuff, since it's REALLY nice (my SIL is the type to buy a $50 pair of shoes for a 3 month old...) and pick some stuff out that my DH and I want for our future miracles. Still holding onto that hope...

-No word back from our housing situation. We should hear back today or sometimes this week. The last bit is waiting on the bank and the VA (Veteran's affairs). Closing date, if all goes as planned, is still scheduled for the 30th of this month.

-I'll be 27 on October 2nd. Crazy, not quite where I thought I would be at that point in my life but also, feeling rather fortunate for all the amazing blessings that God has given me thus far...

-Last night we watched "Did you hear about the Morgans?"...yeah, IF was mentioned in the movie in case you hadn't seen it. During a random stay, they did it (for lack of better words!) and weren't "trying" really and SHOCKINGLY, they ended up getting pregnant. Insert sarcasm here. I SO saw that coming. I told me DH that it's amazing what happens when you stop trying and just relax...you get pregnant. Then I told him we should try that, ha. Insert more sarcasm. And I KNOW that some people do get pregnant when they stop trying, but for a lot of us that have something actually causing their infertility (PCOS for example) sometimes, it's not that simple.

-This cycle I am going to try my damnedest NOT to goo.gle or read into things. I want to offer it up. Really, REALLY offer it up. Last cycle was quite exhausting trying to read into everything.


I did this post in bullets because I knew that if I tried to write out an actual post it would be all over the place...doing it as bullets makes complete sense of the "random, jumping around-ness" ;)

Prayer requests

It's late and I'm beat after a long weekend and busy day, but I wanted to ask those that read if they wouldn't mind saying a prayer (or two or three or however many you can spare) for two things weighing on my heart and keeping me up even though I'm exhausted:

1) I'm calling my doctor tomorrow to follow up about my blood work and to see if we can schedule the surgery. Like always, I'm nervous....

2) We put an offer in on a house we love today! A cute there bedroom two bath starter home. Since this is our first homebuying experience we are quite nervous but still hopeful!

Thank you ladies. Besides the above listed and (a not so important issue of) our computer still being dead thus making it hard to post/read/comment...I'm trying to remember to count my blessings!!

Busy busy busy bee

I have done a rather poor job of blogging and commenting! I've read a couple posts here and there but have been rather busy and well, I guess this is life!

I am heading to B-CS this weekend because my big brother is getting married!!!! I'm sooo excited! She's a great girl and I'm so excited to get a new sister. My younger brother got married last August and I was married June '07 and now my big brother is joining the amazing club called marriage! ;)

I hope that all you ladies are doing well. I have continued to pray for many of you, so even if I haven't posted a comment in awhile it definitely doesn't mean that I have stopped the prayers.

A couple prayer requests:
-That my blood work goes well tomorrow so we can schedule my surgery soon after.
-My husband is doing a sign up at work and he really wants to keep the same time and days off...the big sign up is at 3:30 today!!
-That the house hunting goes smoothly (is that even possible?!).
-That my brother's wedding goes great filled with tons of love and lots of laughter!

Happy (almost) weekend to everyone!!!
