Alright, Alright! I'll update our blog. It's been quite a long time. The thing is we just don't think our life is that exciting. We like our life, we are very happy, it's just not like much is going on. I already announced that John's last day of school was last fall but he officially graduated this month. I'm still so very proud of him. He has a job and it's not the worst thing he could be doing but it doesn't fill him with overwhelming satisfaction either but I am guessing not that many people can say that about their jobs. We are so grateful to both be working. We are always looking for better especially since his hours are 4am to 1pm, and has to work Sundays. So I'll put it out there again, anything with computers we'll apply for so please comment if you know if anything.
I of course have the summer off. I've had time to think about this last school year and I am officially calling it a success. It was my 4 year and I really feel like I am comfortable and more importantly, that this is what I am supposed to be doing. I really love it and love my students. I had more responsibilities this year, my first real leadership opportunity and that was so so so stressful but I'm so glad I was able to do that. I also received a lot of sweet goodbye notes this year so that always helps.
I love summer!!! We went to Lagoon the other day and it was not crowded and it was so fun. I love my husband so much. He's a lot of fun.
I can't complain! We have a lot of good things going for us. I think anyone reading my blog knows I'm a pretty open person and so I feel pretty comfortable talking about this next thing. We want to start our family so badly, but for some reason, it's not happened for 1 1/2 years. now. And I know what most people say, it'll happen when it needs to and that's not really that long to try, but I am so tired of waiting! I welcome any comments. We are seeing a doctor and am thinking about trying medicine but I'm worried about that too. My body isn't working right, I know that much. It always did work great until I went on birth control and it's having a hard time recovering from that I guess. I know a lot of people struggle with this so I would love to hear other stories or suggestions, especially about the Depo shot (the birth control I did) or Clomed.
Anyway, hope every one has a great week!

I'm so excited that you want to start your family! Good luck with that. I'm sorry I don't have any advice to offer, but you will be in our prayers. I hope you don't have to wait too long.
Hi there, 22 years ago I went on Clomid. Aisling turned 21 this month. My body never did work right and w/o the clomid, we'd still be waiting. (Only at this point (being 50+) I'd be hoping the other way, )
Good luck with this venture!! The greatest advice I think I would give you would be to not stress. I know, easier said than done. But when we stressed over it, it just created more problems.
We'll be thinking of you.
Yeah- another post! Don't you know that we all lead boring lives? We just post pictures about it :P
your alive! :)
Keep posting, we miss you!! I was on Depo for a couple of years, Conner was conceived while on Depo... go figure... Best of luck to you, we're thinking about you.
Thanks for posting! Glad to know you're out there!
We sure do love you guys!!! We would LOVE another visit!!!
I wish I had good advice. Sorry it's been a struggel for you guys. I never known anyone regretting going on clomid...best wishes and you'll be in our prayers. I'm glad your summer has begun so well thus far. Keep enjoying it!
I had a friend that it took them 3 yrs to conceive their first! She said the best thing they did was finally see a fertility specialist instead of just an OB/GYN. Clomid or the generic clomiphen work just fine. I've known a couple of people who have gone on it and have been able to have a baby. Sometimes two! Some, the drug works wonders and they are pregnant the first dose others come back for one or two more.
Try not to stress about it, it just adds to your body's condition but DO try clomid. Oh little baby Porter! I can't wait!
