***Making Plans Monday***

We're going to switch things up from the weekly post, Making A Home Monday to Making Plans Monday.

This will be a weekly post to share any none SIF related plans, events and random things you'd like to post about for the week. Maybe it will help take our minds off of SIF if only for a bit!

So, what are your plans this week? :-)

    My dog seems to have hurt her tail so I'll be taking her to the vet today then I'll watch the Panthers play tonight. DD doesn't have school tomorrow so it will be a laid back day. Wednesday is always cheer and tumbling night and Thursday I'm meeting with a friend for breakfast. Friday will be a day to relax and maybe go out on the town. Saturday is going to be a girls day and Sunday will be a lazy day :-) Bring on this week!

    TTCing has pretty much taken over all our lives here on SIF. I'm going on 2 1/2 years of treated SIF. It has ruled my life so I thought this would help us break away from that a bit!

    I like this new thread! As far as plans this week, it's such a strange week because with Veterans Day being tomorrow, my husband works today and then has tomorrow off then goes back to work on Wednesday. But I also am going to a Jamberry regional conference on Saturday, so my husband is taking Friday off and were taking the DS down to the hotel where the conference is and making a family weekend out of it. That means, today, Wednesday, and Thursday will all kind of be normal days. But then the rest of the days are like weird little many weekend days.

YAY!

    My plan is to make it through the week with my sanity intact after sET yesterday.
    I only have a2-day work week since I took today off to take it easy, the clinic is closed tomorrow for Veterans Day and I don't work Fridays.
    DD and I have a playmate for the zoo tomorrow with a friend and her two children. I need to do something fun with DD because I feel that so much time and emotional energy have been spent TTC #2 that she may be short changed in the process.

    FET #1 Dec 2013 BFN

    My son's school is on break so today we hit up the aquarium and we'll do other various activities throughout the week to rejuvenate our minds.

    2IF has also taken over my life but it's been put to the back of my mind while we deal with my son's health issues. My only wish for 2015 is good health for all.

    My week isn't really worth mentioning I feel like but I'll play along. I'll work all week, and DS has a "sporty kids and parents" class tonight and Wednesday night. And then this weekend we'll be heading back to our hometown to see family. I have a hematologist appointment tomorrow but that is bordering on 2if stuff, so I won't get into that

    Tomorrow I am going to go shopping with DS and my mom since we are all off from work. I have to work Wed and Friday. Thursday will probably be a clean the house day. Nothing is planned for the weekend so I am hoping it is quiet! Not a very exciting week here but that is fine with me.

    I totally forgot that DD was home tomorrow since DC is closed on Federal holidays. So now I think we will be going to the zoo and shopping. My surgery follow-up appt got pushed to Thursday, so I am still on limited mobility until then. So more movie marathons and crafting from my couch!

    My windows were delivered yesterday! Well half of them anyway so my goals are to keep the house construction moving along and find the other half of my windows! I love this new thread and sorry advance because for the next 6 months or so mine will likely all revolve all the house. But in other news my FIL is coming to visit this weekend so I need to clean my condo which has started closing in on us ever since we bought the new house and know more space is a possibility.

    TTC#1 May 2009- July 2010 on our own with no luck

    Started with RE in August 2010, dx with unexplained IF and then finally our 3rd IUI cycle using Follistim and Trigger resulted in our wonderful little man.  Born 12/2/11

    TTC#2 Never really prevented, but were careful early on as Dr. reccomended

    Surprise BFP 12/16/13, started progesterone immediately as first numbers came back low, but betas were good.  Progesterone wasnt enough. Natural MC 12/24/13.

    Back with RE as of January 2014...

    5/27/14- Chemical Pregnancy :(

    April 2015 IVF#1

    5/13/15- BFP, please stick LO!
