Changes & TTC Update

Hey LOVES!!
(sorry its been so long AGAIN, dont fire me)
So to update you all on my TTC #2 journey...sadly AF showed its UGLY face...ugh...makes me sick!

I am going into Cycle 13 ( little over a year of trying), but staying positive I am on CD #13 and I am in what they call my "fertile period". Negative OPK this morning, but I usually dont get a positive until CD#15 give and take a day or two. Just praying we get it right this month. Emotionally I am drained. Physically I keep questioning my body. It's getting to the point where it's hard to blog about, let alone talk about....
Have any of you gotten to this point?
What helped other than a BFP?


So enough of that...This past weekend was amazing. CJ had his very first t-ball game. Chris & I were the proud parents! I was assisting as one of the team mom's and Chris was assisting the coaches with the kids in the field. All the kids are 4 years old and so adorable...We had a blast and so did CJ! My MIL came into town for his game because it was going to be the only game that would dall on a Saturday. She loved it too! After the game we went to the 1st annual Wingfest...had some great wings and let CJ continue to tire himself out. We ran a few errands, ordered some pizza and called it a night. I think we all had the best sleep that night! Sunday my MIL and I ran errands together and did a little shopping. (I found the  cutest wedges at Belk!) 
I made dinner, finished the laundry and caught up on my "Real Housewives of Orange County".
All in all, it was a good weekend! I promise I will dedicate a WHOLE POST to updating you guys on pictures from trips & events. I'm just so tired right now I can barely move and watermarking my pics is a must now thanks to MrstoMama so takes me even longer to have the pictures ready to post.
At least until I get the hang of it.
 (I'm literally writing this post in bed, fighting as hard as I can to NOT fall asleep)

So yesterday I had an "IDEA" about organizing and adding structure to my life.
 Right now the only structure that I have is with my son.
He is on a schedule and I love that, but he is the only one on the schedule!!
 I fit things for myself in whenever I can spare a minute. But this gut I've gotten is begging me to utilize my gym membership and the lack of sleep is truly beginning to hurt.
Not to mention my blog is so far down on the priority list it hurts my feelings.
I think with some structure or a schedule this all could improve significantly.
So I'm going to start scheduling my life, shopping, working out
and eating will need to all be more structured so
 I can lose a little weight and get more sleep!

So with that said, my blog will have a schedule now too!

Mondays- will be called "Marvelous Monday" -I will recap my weekend and although most of us CAN NOT STAND Monday. I will identify a positively marvelous on moment!

Wednesdays- will be called "What's changing for you Wednesday"? This blog will be about what's changing for me, what I notice in the media, world and or in my personal life. It's my whats up day!

Fridays- will be called "Favorite Friday". I will name at least 5 things that are my FAVORITE right now items, products or buys! From kid items, mom/wifey items, makeup,beauty, clothes, shoes, etc.

Sundays- I will update you on everything TTC related! My journey, struggles, feelings, procedures and hopefully one day soon...my BFP!

I know I am due to update you all on pictures from our Jacksonville & Tampa trip!
 I will do that probably Tuesday or Thursday...hopefully!

Hope this all works out! Let me know what you think!
Send baby dust my way please & thank you!


*XOXO*

Where have you been?

I know I know, it's been a while and I am SO sorry for that. I have been in the wierdest moods in the past 2 weeks. Things have just been verry off with me and it's been a mess. One minute Im okay and feeling good and the next I'm discouraged and upset. Between missing my family in Texas, not having very many outlets here in this small town and TTCing for over a year now...I've gotten tired, just very tired is the best way I can put it. But I'll be fine, I have dedicated myself to pulling myself out of this blackhole of emotions...

I will be back blogging in no time! I'll have lots to share after this weekend! We are going to Savannah, GA to visit my husbands family and then going to Jacksonville for our nieces birthday party! So lots of pictures and topics to come soon. When you get me and my sister in-law in the same room lots of inspiration is talked about!!


TTC UPDATE
I am 13 dpo right now & there is no sign of AF...hopefully it stays that way. This month we didnt try super hard. I think we may have BD'd twice within the fertile days but like I said I have been completely out of it. I pray that it happens this time since we werent really trying and my mind has been else where. It actually felt good to not be thinking about how "Im feeling" and what signs I may be expierencing. Idk...I just pray that our time is soon. It would make my LIFE!! I'm not gonna test, just going to wait and see if AF comes or doesnt come. Sprinkle some baby dust my way please! I cant put myself through the anxiety anymore.

Til next time...
