Zzzzzzz.....

Yep. That about sums it up these days. I mentioned most of my news in the other thread - work being busier, but finally settled. Feeling great. Baby's growing. My WoW character that I play with DH has made it to the expansion content, haha. I'm back at the gym 3-4 days a week and feeling great for it. DH and I have a portable DVD player and now we watch a show at night before going to sleep, it's great time for us. I love it. I'm taking a BF class in December and am looking forward to it, really hoping that it helps me not fail so bad this time at nursing! Same old same old, for the most part. I'm so proud - I'm 17 weeks pregnant, and I'm still under 170lb! Before I got pregnant, I was in a struggle to get down to 160lb, I kept hovering around 165-170, so that is huge to me. Of course, I'm not dieting or anything, but I'm not blowing up like a balloon either - my goal of keeping my weight loss around 25-30lb again this time may be within reach at this rate!

Well, you can imagine how I am feeling the day after signing the death warrant for my little girl. I will do picture girl tomorrow to keep myself busy. I have a feeling I will be out of the house a lot this week to take my mind off of it.

I am driving myself nuts TTC. I did a very stupid thing and tested at 10 and 11 dpo and got a
I feel like I'm pregnant, and I'm mad at myself for testing early. So I'm going to wait and test again on Halloween and hope for a nice treat-- I will be 13 dpo at that point.

Nicole, it probably is best to keep busy to keep your mind off of it. How is roger with it? Has he asked where the dog is a lot?

Ranee I hope for a

Kel sounds like you are on track for not gaining too much. But it seems like everyone has that one week or 2 that they gain 5 lbs in a week....for me it was 10

Well Thursday I go meet with and adviser for school. So I will find out what classes I have to take still and how long it will take me to finish. I am guessing about 2 years. I am trying to decide what to do about daycare. My friend (who does my hair) offered to watch Reagan on Tues and Thurs as I think those are the only days I am going to take classes. I would of course pay her, and it would probably equal out to what I would pay for daycare on assistance. She is making crappy money at the salon she moved over to. She said she might stop working all together b/c it isn't worth it and just stay home and babysit. It would definitely put mind at ease, as I know Reagan would be in good hands.

And I've been talking to a guy online now for about a month, so far so good. I'll probably agree to his phone conversation invitation tomorrow. I talked at great length last night with Lindsey about it all (since she met DF online). After that convo I feel a lot better about things! Thanks Linds!! But he has a 4 year old son he has every weekend, so he gets the whole single parent thing. He lives an hour and half away which is pretty much the only downfall at this point. But like I told Lindsey if something were to come of it, it could work.

No news from Nathan, I really need to call child support this week and see what the deal is. It's been almost a month since she called him and I've heard nothing from her, or him! I've given up any hope of him being involved in her life, she'll be 9 months old Weds and he's only called me once. Okay enough of that before I go off on a tangent!

Ash~ You should take his invite for the phone, but I want details! I wanna know how it goes! As for his 4yo son, I think that is GREAT that he takes him every weekend, because you know that he is interested in being or trying to be a good parent. AND he is a spiderman fan! Just like DS! And I must say you are VERY VERY welcome for our convo last night, you don't have to thank me though, I am here for you! I have BTDT 2 times and I am getting married to one of them!

Natalie had her 15 month check up today and got 4 different shots. She weighs 24.5 lbs and is 34 1/2 inches tall. She screamed during the shots and then was fine. She played the rest of today like nothing was wrong.

Natalie's the exact same size as Roger, except she's an inch taller! What size shoe does she wear?

There are moments of the day when it is hard. Roger hasn't asked about her yet. I'm doing some work now and will do picture girl during Roger's next nap. It is good to keep busy.

Doing good. Nothing really going on. It will be interesting to find out if Ally agrees to wear her bunny costume for the party at daycare today. Wonder if we will get her into it tonight for trick-or-treat.
