My hands smell soooo good!

The cheesecake is in the oven now . . . my hands have the lingering scent of 'Seattle's Best' Chocolate Toffee flavored coffee -Mmm! --and cocoa.
It has been a strange morning . . . I'm not used to being all alone in the house -it's a little akward.  I have this feeling of "I have to go wake Kryssa up now."  But then I remember, "Oh, no I don't.  She's not here."   I miss her; even last night, as we were laying in bed, I kept on telling Chris, "I don't know how I'm going to handle our TEN day vacation (we leave in 5 days!) if I am missing her tonight --I'm with her all the time; I shouldn't be missing her over one night . . . I should be okay . . . ".  But it was not planned for her to stay the night and I was about 5 mins away when my mom called to say that Kryssa was asleep and I could just leave her there --they'll take her to Austin too.  So, I was really looking forward to hearing "Mommy!  Hi Mommy!" --she's always super excited when I pick her up.  So, that's probably why I've missed her the way I have -my heart was left waiting for her little smile and tiny voice to say "Mommy!" . . . I'm anxious to get to Austin and see her!! hee hee  Only 5 more hours!!! LoL.
Now, don't get me wrong; I AM ENJOYING THIS TIME!!!  She is one big ball of energy and a determined little 'explorer' --so, this is a wonderful, amazing, well needed, alone time.
So, I will drive to Austin all alone . . . I haven't done that since . . . hmmm . . . before I was marriend ('02) -maybe sometime when I was pregnant ('04)(although, I doubt I drove to Austin alone, while pregnant!) . . . .? --Either way, it's still been yeeears.
It's going to be a nice quite day!! YAY!! :D

Oh, my hands smell so yummy . . . I just hope the cheesecake turns out to taste as yummy as my hands smell.  Ha ha, I hope this smell stays stuck on my skin all day --it's like walking down the coffee isle . . . Mmmm . . . .

Mr. T likes to party

So apparently Chris is pretending to live the single life again. Yes, I could have gone to the party with him; but just because I choose not to doesn't mean that he takes advantage of free all night babysitting!!! If we would have gone together, we would have had to be home by 11pm probably. But I get the text saying that he won't be home till "12-1" -what the heck?! That's an hour window . . . WHATEVER!

Anyway, so, I'm very sleepy and would rather be sleeping off my frustration than sitting here, waiting for my bed sheets to finish up in the dryer. I would normally go lay out and snooze on the guest bed but I just cleaned out Kryssa's closet, toys and clothes, and decided to pile a ton of things on that bed for tonight (to hurry up and clear out her room so she could go to sleep). So, here I am, bothered, flustered, annoyed, sleepy -a little light headed too- and not able to relax on my bed . . . yet!

On a better note, Chris went to an "80's" party and he went as Mr. T -lol!!! Go ahead, laugh it off -because what you are about to see is ABSOLUTELY HALARIOUS!!! lol!!!

Well, I'm at fault for his mohawk -it should have been wider -but it was a bit off center to his face when I finished -lol- and I notice right away ---but too late, of course! lol. So, I just had to bring it in a bit on one side to center it up . . . I sure wish that he would have picked to dress up/resemble someone that made him look more masculine rather than more . . . well . . . net shirts and tight fitted pants just don't shout "MASCULINE!" -so, I did tell him that I'm really glad I chose to stay home. Especially after I saw what he bought to wear . . . lol. I just can't explain or even understand my husband at times . . . LOL, all I do it laugh . . . or roll my eyes and huff and puff -but tonight, I couldn't help but laugh and laugh and laugh . . .

I accomplished quite a bit today. I cleaned like I haven't cleaned in a long long time. Corners and crevices by hand . . . some serious, serious, "Spring Cleaning". I've been cleaning, well, I'm not anymore, but I had been, since about 1:30pm -and I came down stairs to "relax" at approx 11:30pm -I don't know what got into me but I'm glad I did all that I did!

Well, Chris just sent a text that he is on his way home -finally!! So, I should have some more crazy pics to post -of the actual party (he took my camera, so, I'm assuming there will be pics).

Nighty night everyone. Thanks for reading . . .

Straight from the cookie

"Do not give up; the beginning is always the hardest.", is what the fortune, in my fortune cookie, said.  Then the back side said "Boy" -ha ha ha; We really would love to have a little boy . . .

I know it's just a silly little fortune cookie but I still enjoyed that little message.

It must be a sign

"Do you think this is a sign?", Chris says as tossing something on the table.  I look down and see a Babies "R" Us catalog!! Lol!!  Even when we were pregnant, we NEVER recieved anything from them.  This is the very fist catalog we have ever received from that store.  It is addressed to "The Mayfield Family or Current Resident" -so, it wasn't just one of those weekly adds.  Pretty strange -but I really enjoyed looking through it, thinking of how it's going to be to 'get ready for baby' again!!    Oh, I am just tooooo anxious to get a positive reading on a pregnancy test.
So, tonight is day 2 of the 10 days of my first set of pills (provera) . . . God willing we will hear what we want to hear in the next 35 days or so!!  Eeeeek!!  hee hee!!

Update: June 18, 2007 (Dr. Appt. News!)

Okay, well, it finally happened . . . I had an actual visit/appointment with my new doctor.  So, let's see if I can share the info without getting too personal.
I will try to wrap it up quickly and then discuss my doctor:  So, the pregnancy test, that they took today, came out negative -no suprise.  I got a prescription for Provera, Clomid, and prenatal vitamins.  I will start Provera tomorrow; we didn't have enough time to pick that one up today :(  .  I will take that for ten days and within 3 days or so, after those ten days, we should have our "Day 1"!!!  LoL, I've never been sooooo excited for a "Day 1" -ha ha ha . . . it's been 6 months now . . . Okay, so then "Days 5-9" I will take Clomid (he started me off on 50mg, a low dose, to see if that might be all we need to conceive.  That medicine increases our chances of having multiples only by 1-3% --every 50mg, from what I understand. -hee hee, so we'll see.)  "Day 14" will come around and then "Day 12-16"; after that, I will go back to the doctor to check my Progesterone levels.  And then we wait to see if it worked!!  God willing, we'll only need one round to conceive . . . If not, then we go through round two of the whole process and he will increase the dosage of Clomid.  So, we go from there . . .
Next Monday, June 25th, @ 3pm, I go back for a sonogram to do some 'snooping' around and see that everything is okay.  Then @ 5pm, I will meet with my doctor to discuss the results and see if anything else needs to take place, besides just taking the meds.
So, I really, really, like my new doctor.  He even told me about the 'going away' party they had for my previous doctor.  He joke about how he really is "the next best doctor" -I agree! :)  I was afraid that he wouldn't take me seriously and that he would tell me that 6 months of "trying" wasn't long enough to be concerned.  He didn't, thank God!!  He walked in and cheerfully introduced himself to me and Chris and then got straight to the point.  I was so happy with everything I was hearing and he even told me, while we were talking about all of this, "Ah, I was getting to that.  You're smart!  You know what's going on; I like that!" -that made me feel so happy.  Just knowing that he didn't feel like I was trying to out smart him or anything (which I have had issues like that with a previous doctor -she didn't like that I had so many questions and that I did my own research.  She actually told me once "I'm the doctor and you are the patient; leave that up to me to do . . ." -UGH!! -she wasn't my doctor for very long!).  So, I love his sense of humor and his excitement for us -he kept on saying "Yeah, we'll help you out!!"  -Ah, I just can't be any happier and pleased about this whole thing.  I had no idea what would go on.  It almost started to feel like a dream . . . that we weren't going to be able to have another child for a long time.
They also drew some blood today -Eeek!-to check some levels of several things (in case there is something else going on that needs to be taken care of first).  Just knowing that we have finally gotten from point A to point B puts me on cloud nine, for now, about this whole situation.
I did tell Chris, though, "I'm super happy with how this is working out for us so far -because this is our "situation" and this is the way we must go through it.  BUT, it's still an emotional situation for me because when I really stop and think about it -from the "outside", looking "in" at our situation, it's quite sad:  I'm only 24 and I didn't think that we would have to go through anything like this at this age.  Maybe I could understand and accept it a little better if we were in our late 30's or mid 40's, trying to conceive or something!  BUT we are both so young and now we have to go by a "plan" and be told when to "have relations" (as the doctor put it -lol) . . . Ugh, I hope we're strong enough to go through all this and still keep the romance."  I know that God has his reasons for everything and I am really looking on the bright side of things.  At least we know what issues to tackle . . . well, at least for now we do.  This might be the way I can have the twins that I have been praying for since I was about 6 or so!!! lol.  I did tell Chris that when this all started:  "you know, maybe all this is suppose to happen this way so that we can get on fertility drugs and conceive the twins that I have been praying for . . . this might be God's way of answering my prayer" -see, I do my best to stay optimistic!! hee hee  You should have Chris's his face/reaction when the doctor told us that the chances of mulitiples will go up a bit!  LOL!!!
So, I know that this is pretty presonal -but at the same time, I kind of don't mind sharing it, with who ever takes the time to read it, because I have received so much support from people around me that I feel I could keep everyone up to date.  Also, I've never known anyone, personally, that has gone through this.  I don't know what happens next or what to expect.  But, if someone would have shared this type of info with me, I wouldn't have felt so emotional -wondering what was wrong and how and when might we conceive . . . you know?  For all I know, someone might read this and it might encourage them in their own situation.   I never know who might find this info helpful.  I have learned so much from reading articles of what other women/couples have gone through -their own experiences of how they struggled to conceive and what helped, what didn't, how long it took for them, and how they coped with it all  . . . I'm just sharing enough to inform you and others -but, hopefully, nothing too informative that might cause me to blush . . . ha ha ha
So, if you have any questions about any of this (the process of meds, doctor visits -whatever), don't hesitate to ask -that is how one learns, right?!  If it's too personal, I will let you know. 
Thanks, again, for allllll the support and prayers.  OH!  Another thing I told Chris -something that helped me stay positive about this whole experience: "We actually have an advantage doing things this way.  Some people get pregnant unexpectedly and have worries/concerns of 'what do I do; how will I afford all of this'.  We know what to plan for and we have time to save for the expences, expected and unexpected, that we already know about from having our first baby.  This is a chance for us to be wise and prepare -so when our day does come, when we conceive #2, we won't feel overwhelmed with 'Oh, how am I going to afford all of this' . . ." -I know some of you totally understand what I am talking about.  Yes, God provides and makes a way when it seems there is no way.  But I feel this is a way that God is helping us grow wiser with priorities and working together for goals in our future.  Chris mentioned "but I do have to say that we are so much better off, financially, now than we were the first time around."  I do agree and Thank God for it all -but I told him "Yes, but that is even more of a reason to start saving now -because we can!- so that when baby #2 comes around we are certain that we can continue to feel how we feel right now (with our finances) .  .  . why wait?!"
So, anyway . . . we are actually learning so much more with all of this that I would have thought . . . . that's just more proof that everything happens for a reason.

Update: June 14, 2007

Well, Happy Father's Day to all the Fathers!!  Our celebration was wonderful!  Praise God!  My parents, father-in-law, sis and her hubby came over.  Oh, we had plenty of yummy food and Yummies.  I love when we all get together like we did today -it just feels GREAT!
We got Chris a set of golf clubs, like he asked.  We also got him two pairs of shoes, shorts, a shirt and some jeans . . . oh, and The Pursuit of Happyness.  He bought himself a SPURS Championship hat -hee hee; it's not father's day unless he buys himself a gift, I guess -ha ha ha!!!
So, the more serious update is that my appointment (the one that had to get rescheduled w/ a new doctor) is tomorrow at 4:05pm.  I had forgotten -well, I mean, I have been thinking about it and reminding myself and Chris; but I didn't realize that "Monday, June 18th" was tomorrow!!!  But it was actually a good thing, I guess, because I haven't been dwelling on it -like I was last time- so, I have been able to enjoy other things that are gong on.
Ugh, I've been dealing with a strange itchy, cough, lung issue.  It's been causing my asthma to flare up.  I've been having to take my inhaler about 3 times a day.  That inhaler has been handy for about 3 years or so -I've used it very very very little . . . so, I am a little concerned that I have been needing it 3 times a day for the past 3 days . . . hm?!  Annoying!!
I feel like there was more to blog . . . I just can't think of anything other than super personal stuff . . .
So, I'll blog tomorrow -if there's something to share, about our appointment (my appointment -but Chris, thank God, will be there with me).
So, just keep us and our "situation" in prayer -still-, please.    Thanks.

Crazy long survey that I had no idea would turn out to be so long . . .

So, I thought it would be nice to fill in this survey -I read it on someone's page and thought "Oh, I want to fill it in about me and Chris -how we met and where we're at now-".  I had NO idea it would be so long, draining, and eventually boring and pointless!!! lol.   So, instead of just closing the survey and wasting all the time that it took for me to fill out half of it -I thought I would post what I answered.  Anyway, I really would have liked it if it was just about me and Chris and all -I don't feel like taking the time to change it up the way I would like it.  Maybe I will another time . . .

I'm sure it's not a dream . . .

When you can't sleep -yet you can't seem to wake up . . . what is it? 
There is A LOT going on for me right now, and I just couldn't get to sleep last night.  But then after finally falling asleep, I started having some super-dee duper-dee strange dreams.  So, I would wake up and toss and turn and then wonder if I was awake or asleep . . .
So, now, I know I'm awake; but then I start thinking about everything again and then realize that I would rather be dreaming than living right now.  Not that I wish I wasn't living -just that I wish that what I am dealing with was only part of another strange dream . . . does that make sense?
So, on a better note . . . I have had a really nice day with the kids!! :)  I hadn't worked since last Friday.  Today was the first day in five days -I got a little spoiled . . . and lazy!!  Ugh!  LoL.  Well, I realized, yesterday, how much I really enjoy working with kiddos again rather than just hangin around with house work to do . . . ha ha ha.  We had breakfast, went to the playground (got super worn out -hee hee), came back and ate lunch -and now, they are all asleep!!  Woo hoo.  None of them had any problems falling asleep.  Now, of course, Kryssa was the last to fall asleep.  She alwasy tries to fight her sleepy eyes -but eventually, within 30 mins after everyone has fallen asleep, her sleepy eyes win.
Oh, another nice little surprise for today . . . I signed on to check when one of my credit card bills was due and to my suprise, my credit limit showed a thousand dollar increase!!  Wow!  lol, not that it needs to be spent; but that means that I'm finally getting some credit -good credit- to my name.  I've had that card opened since 2001 and it had always been the same.  It was my only card, up untill Feb. 2007, and I remember asking for an increase back in '05 or so and they said that I didn't have 'enough' credit yet . . . so, I now have three cards opened and all in 'control' -I'm not crazy w/ my cards (well, at least I don't think I am)- and hopefully it's building some good credit for me!! :)
Well, anyway . . . I guess I'm just blogging now for the sake of keeping busy.  Right now, "down time" seems to drown me in thought -and right now, I don't need that . . . I just really wonder what the outcome of my current situation(s) will be.  I know that I won't know the future; but for this one time, I really wish I could just get an glimpse, an idea . . . a heads up . . .
 . . . yup . . . so this is life . . .

Ooooh, it's getting close!!

How exciting!!  We booked our hotel, for Vegas, last night!!  So, now, we definitely have a flight and a place to stay!! hee hee

Only 29 days, 2 hours, 57 minutes until we are in the sky on our way to Vegas!!!

Appointment update

So, I called today and rescheduled my appointment w/ another doctor.  I'm just praying that this one stays scheduled.  I am, more than likely, going to call the week before to make sure it's still scheduled.
I really can't stand how those people, though, seem to not care.  They probably don't -but they should at least act like they do.  I started telling her what happened on the 31st, just so that she would make sure to get the info right -about what my visit is regarding- and she just kept on talking over me continuing w/ the appointment time and date and all.  When she asked what I was going for, she had no idea what I meant.  What's so hard about udnerstanding and typing in "Fertility consult" . . . she started asking me other questions and I answered them.  Then when she was done, I asked, "so, what did you put down for my visit?"  When she tells me, I realize that it isn't what I asked for and she seems to really not know what's going on . . . But I just left it alone.  I know that when I go they will ask me more than once what I'm there for.  That's just they way they do it.  When you make the appointment, they ask you and put it in the computer.  Then when they take vitals, they ask again and write it in the chart . . . sometimes they will even ask again when you are sitting in the room waiting.  So, at some point, someone, will understand what I am there for.  Ugh!
So, I'm going to give them another chance.  If they mess up this next time, on the 18th, I will just have to find another group of doctors -unfortunately it's not even the doctors that have caused these problems.
I'll update again, when there's more news . . .
