Lucky Month

I don't want to get my hopes up and I dont want to jinx anything.. but I feel like this is a lucky month for me. This is the month 3 years ago I got pregnant with Ainsley. It is the 5th month I've been on this study they are doing on women who've had miscarriages and the nice lady there told me that the majority of the women who have done this study got pregnant on the 5th or 6th month. And.. sorry if this is too personal.. but I feel like Tom and I really hit it on the nose when trying to get pregnant this month. :) That's as much detail as I'll go into that. ;) So I'm feeling pretty good this month.

And now I'm about to embark on what promises to be a very nice couple of weeks. We got to Las Vegas to the in laws late last night and this morning the women of the family are taking off for Sunny California! The men are all being responsible and staying to work or go to school another day. The girls however decided we needed an extra day to go shopping. :) Then Friday is Beach and Saturday is Disneyland!! (I have refrained here from going on and on about how excited I am for Ainsley to go on that trip.. for that post see my regular blog later, lol) and then back to Vegas Sunday sometime. (ps, yeah, that's me with long brown hair from back in the day)

Then Monday.. (i know, i know, can there really be more??) we're leaving for his parents cabin for TWO WEEKS! How insane is that? Now that Tom is working remotely he can pretty much work wherever he has internet, and his favorite place in the world is the cabin.. he's been dreaming of going there for an extended amount of time for quite a while, so now that he's got the chance we're going.

I think it'll be relaxing, nice.. I'm going to make yummy food and try and convince myself to go on nice nature walks to work it off. Cuz my new monthly goal is that if I'm not going to be prego I might as well not be fat. lol. I've also brought my scrapbooking (I'm now only about a year behind) and the remains of a beading experiment gone wrong with the hopes of making a bunch of baby bracelets while I am there.

All in all, I'm feeling pretty good.. I'm focusing on the positives and trying to ignore some negative (i.e. me in a bathing suit with my skinny in laws, lol) and determined to enjoy this month. (Please enjoy the photograph below, depicting me.. determinately enjoying myself)
