Shout out

Just a shout out to all of my TTC friends. I still have everything crossed for you girls and think about you all. I have to keep myself busy with other things or I go nuts wanting to spend more money trying when I had to say enough is enough. (DP just can't handle anymore emotionally.)

I haven't kept up with the board, though I log on every now and then and read a post or two or three.

CONGRATS! to all of the BFP's lately!!!!! I am so excited when I hear about them. Feel free to keep me updated with all of the good news. I think about my pregnant buddies, too, and wish everyone well. And let me not forget the moms of ADORABLE babies! I think about you all.

THIS MONTH SUCKS! AF is due right now and I'm feeling those symptoms that usually made me wonder .... Could it be symptoms...or is it AF around the corner??? I automatically go to thinking that....then I realize I am not trying anymore, so it has to be AF. It is really weird in a sad kind of way.

So, I'm trying to keep busy and trying to be the best mom I can to my little (but really getting so big) Butterfly.

I'm not sure if I blogged that I took her to a piercing studio in Northampton, MA and she got her ears pierced. Here's the photos:

Here's the funny story: After the first ear was done and she was preparing for the second, Penelope (the piercer) aske her, "Now, aren't you glad you don't have 3 or 4 ears???" Butte3rfly answers, "Right about now, I'm wishing I only had ONE ear."

And here is the latest slideshow of her playing in the backyard:

So, now you have a glimpse into my post TTC world. I hope it gets better from here.

123 Book Tagging

I've been tagged by ninefirefly at Growing Our Little Bean!

Here it goes!!

Rules:

1. Grab the nearest book of 123 pages or more.

2. Open it to page 123.

3. Find the first 5 sentences and write them down.

4. Then invite 5 friends to do the same.

The closest book to me is The Night Watch by Sarah Waters. T is in the middle of it, but I have not read it yet.

She gazed idly, now, not looking for Kay; still sure, in her heart, that she'd had that single chance and lost it.

And even before her gaze had settled a figure came sauntering along the pavement from the direction of Waterloo Bridge: a slim, tall, quite striking figure, not at all like a boy or a middle aged man, with its hands in its trouser pockets and a cigarette dangling nonchalantly from its lip ... Viv moved closer to the window.

Fraser saw, and leant to look, too.

"What is it?" he said.

"You haven't seen her?"

I'm tagging:

Cindy over at A Bunch and a Bunch, Deena over at The Lazy "P", Lyndsey at An Interesting Journey, Lora at Road to Baby Toes,and Marlana at My First TTC So Close Yet So Far Away.

I'm pretty much alright. It's just that it's hard to ignore this stuff when I'm reading stuff daily, so I've tried to keep busy with other things. (Like shoveling snow!)
