Up to speed and full steam ahead!

Its now the middle-end of July 2012 and things have just blown by in the past year. We'll be celebrating our 1 year Homeowner anniversary in September and alot of other changes have happened in this time.

Looking back.......

In Nov of 2011 we celebrated my 1st nephew's 1st birthday and his 2nd bday is right around the corner. I'm still in awe at how fast time flies. If it goes this fast with nephews/nieces I'm scared at how fast it will go with children of our own.

In April of 2012 my DH and I celebrated our 2nd wedding anniversary.

In May 2012 I took a leap of faith and applied for a new job within the same organization.

June came and brought with it a new job for me :O and a brand new Niece! One of my best friends ( I consider her like a sister) had a beautiful little girl named Madison Sophia, so in my heart she is my Niece!

With Madison's arrival and my nephew Wesley in our lives, in my heart I knew that I was at the point where I really wanted to start trying for a child of our own. I love all of the children in our family and having our own children would never change that. I kept asking myself, if I love those little ones who aren't of my own flesh and blood so much, just think of how much I'd love our own children. My DH and I talked more about it and decided that we had done the things we talked about and were at a point where we are comfortable trying to start the journey to parenthood!! YAY!

I say we talked about trying and had discussed it between us and talked with my OB/GYN, but before we got married we knew the possibility of us conceiving naturally with no outside help would be slim to none but we didn't take any precautions to prevent it either. So, in my book we've been TTC for over 2 years on our own to no avail, but hopefully this Clomid cycle will change that! :)
