I'll make a new list!
1. Happy Birthday Billy! He's 13 today. I held him in my arms the day he came home from the hospital. I can't believe he's a teenager now. OYE!
2. I got antsy and took a pregnancy test this morning, the day before my period is due, and it was definitely negative. I'll still wait and see if my period comes tomorrow and probably test again on Thrusday if it doesn't, but I'm already mentally prepared for the worst tomorrow. It sucks.
3. I haven't mentioned this yet, because I didn't want to spoil my announcement of Anna, but it was a hard weekend for me. My sister-in-law was a total champ. She barely took any pain meds and managed to deliver a 9 pound baby with hardly any complaints. It made things a lot easier and it raised my admiration of her quite a few notches. It was very hard to hold Anna though. She's a beautiful little baby, but all it did was remind me of the two miscarriages we've had. When we went over for my birthday celebration on Sunday it was hard to see her in their house, because once again it reminded me that we could have a little one at home. Just seeing her and being able to hold her and kiss her makes the hurt even worse, but I still love her.
4. I've been marathon watching Gilmore Girls. I love this show! Not as much as Veronica Mars or Grey's Anatomy or Lost, but it 's such fun to watch them banter back and forth. Anyone who's seen it knows what I'm talking about.
5. We've started a whole new set of addictive TV shows for the remainder of the summer. Gilmore Girls, Eureka (Sci-Fi channel), and Kyle XY (ABC Family). It's so much fun!
6. You all suck for not blogging....except Karen, who's in Alaska. And she sucks for being there. *grin*

Hey, I put up a disclaimer last week, and have honestly been doing my best. I started another list after the last one I posted, but it still hasn't gotten up - work is busy, this weekend was the play and Trey's family was in town, and Armand came to visit. Last night I had an audition, too. Boo-hoo, I know - just because we're not blogging, doesn't mean we don't want to!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm just taking up Karen's job of griping at people!
Sorry for not blogging... but hopefully my recent post makes up for it (it never really does). :-D
i frickin' laughed out loud hard when i read #6!
Lisa,
I noticed you mentioned 2 miscarriages. Are you referring to the inseminations you've done?
If you ever want to discuss adoption with me, let me know. I'm so glad to have put the infertility treatments behind me and focus on something that will result in us being parents. I could actually be in control again! I can officially say it has happened! Layna came home Friday, and it only took 9 months! She is 6 months old. I had hoped that maybe I would get pregnant during the adoption process so I wouldn't have to worry about a sibling for Layna, but it never happened. I shudder to think of how I would be mentally right now if we didn't adopt, we would still be childless.
I'm definitely not saying you won't get pregnant, I really hope it happens soon because of the emotional stress. I wouldn't wish that on anyone!!! God gives people what He believes they can handle, so you and Kendell must be extremely strong people!
