So Excited!

Aunt Flow may have won 25 battles so far, but I am going to take #26 and the war!
I am in such a great mood! I am positive right now and that is how I plan on being for this cycle. This is why I love vacation. You always come back with a fresh perspective. This is it. I can just feel it. (Now watch in a few weeks I am going to be just devastated because I will get a BFN.) Bad B… slaps hand. I am positive! So I am off the meds again this month! Jason loves the non clomid B! So the game plan…. Take 81 mg of Baby Asprin starting tonight, 1-2 tsp. twice daily until ovulation of Robitussen, and drink Green Tea out of the ying yang for the next week. This for right now is my formula for success.
I looked at J last night and said, “I’m truly ready. I want a baby!” For the first time since I had my miscarriage he didn’t flinch, change the subject, or joke his way out of it to make me laugh. He said let’s do it. I feel like we are both truly in this. We have no more reservations, we aren’t hurting anymore, and it is going to be fun again. Not just a means to a goal. I am ready. I am to the point where we have accomplished what we wanted and we are in the best place emotionally, financially, and our marriage has only been getting better since the day we got married. We are ready to be parents. We are ready for the responsibility. We are there, and nothing can stop us!
A pic from a wedding I went to this past weekend! We had a blast!

Fun Baby Facts
- Babies are born with 300 bones, but by adult we have only 206 in our bodies. The reason? Some bones fuse together later.

- A newborn baby's head accounts for about one-quarter of it's entire weight.
- According to researchers at the University of Texas, babies like pretty faces better than plain ones.
- A fetus in the womb can hear. Tests have shown that fetuses respond to various sounds just as vigorously as they respond to pressures and internal sensations.
- The average child will eat 15 pounds of cereal in a year.
- Diaper rash occurs more often after 8 months of age.
- Baby oil and baby lotion lubricate the skin equally well.
- Aside from medical costs, it's been determined that new parents in the U.S. typically spend $7,000 in a baby's first year on everything from diapers to formula to day care.
