Ok so it's been a really long time since I have posted. Things have been a little hectic in our everyday lives so I haven't had much to say that wouldn't bore everyone to death. But for the sake of catching everyone up on the exciting life we live here we go...
We have been busy preparing for our nephews' Baptisms and getting our boys ready to go back to school. David has started practices for football again (3x a week) so we have been spending most of our time sitting at the field. I started classes again last week. So much to do so very little time.
On the quest for baby front, because there really doesn't seem like there is much for us to do right now I, with Dawn showing me one stitch, have begun to crochet a baby blanket. It is coming along fairly well and I figure even if I never learn to make anything else, at least I know our future baby will never be cold. As soon as I can I will take a picture of it so you can all see my slow but steady progress. But first you all have to promise not to laugh. Not sure if I mentioned it previously or not but awhile back I went to a new OB/GYN and she said all is well and said since we were still just planning to try the one thing we could do was start me on prenatals - I HATE vitamins - I think I have only ever liked flintstones vitamins. But what the hell, I went online and ordered two 300 count bottles of CVS prenatal vitamins - which came out to a measly $20 and have been taking them religiously every night for about a week. Any step, no matter how small, is a step in the right direction.
We have been spending alot of time with my 6 month old nephew and I just have to say for the record, I love every minute of time we do but every now and then when we have him and he cries I panic, I think to myself, can we really do this again? Most of the time though the question sounds more like " HOLY SHIT can I really do this again? What do I remember about taking care of a baby?" but then he puts his head against my chest or snuggles up to Dawn and I remember why I want this again. Yeah it is true that my baby is almost 12 and Dawn's is almost 11 and we have probably gotten a little rusty over the years but I know that somehow we will pull it together and be just fine.
*** a special shout out, all our love and downpour of super sticky baby dust to Kim & M who will be trying again real soon.

Welcome back ladies! We've missed you. I guess back to school time has been kinda hectic for yall. What kind of classed are you taking? Can't wait to see the blanket. I wish I could crochet. I don't think I have the patience. Glad to hear you got the "go ahead" from your doc. I too have the CVS vitamins. And YES, yes you can do this again. You 2 will be great mommies to lil Dylan.
Thanks for the shoutout. You have no idea how much just those few words helped me this morning. I've kinda been stressing the last day or so. It's nice to know yall are thinking of us. :o)
WELCOME BACK!
I was beginning to think that you lost your password and that was what was keeping you from us :) ha ha
Good luck with the baby thing. Sounds like you are full steam ahead.
