I feel bad that I have not been on here in the last week or more. I know I have missed a lot so I will try and catch up!
My brother (who had a baby 6 months before we had Cooper) caught his wife cheating on him last week. He was completely blindsided. He works non stop all day and night to be able to provide for her (she does not work and gets her nails/pedi/hair/massage WEEKLY while driving her fancy brand new cadillac-not cleaning or cooking or doing laundry either) 
He found out that she had been getting money from him (my brother) for Dr,'s appointments and lying about how much the appointments were so the extra money she was using to buy new dude clothes and cologne and even took him to dallas for a weekend while my brother was working out of town. Needless to say it has been a VERY PAINFUL week. I have hurt so bad for him in a huge way. I've never ever liked his wife so I am glad she is gone but I hurt deeply for my brother and his son. 
Also this weekend was my sister n laws fancy wedding! I do not have a picture of the dress I finally decided to wear but I will post it as soon as she gets her pics back! It turned out awesome and I was introduced to Spanx this weekend. I feel so enlightened and like I have been missing out on the whole new world of tight lifted hineys lol 
Thyroid medicine still isnt working that great-still sleepy a lot and not pregnant (we've pretty much been trying since May) So that's what has been going on with me. I am going to fall in to the world of the Bump for the remainder of my work day and see what all my little intrawebbly friends have been up to 

My MIL just sent me this pic of me and her. This is the GB dress that I wore. I borrowed it from my MIL and SIL approved. THANK GOD !!! I am on the left and I don't know why my legs look SO awkward.

    I was literally just thinking about you and where you were today.  I'm sorry about your brother. That sucks. Perhaps if he can prove infidelity though she hopefully won't get a penny from him.

    Spanx are awesome.

    He has plenty of proof and also has her admitting it on tape. I just hate that he is going through this. He is so innocent and naive and just purely sweet. Ahhh Is murder still illegal???? I hate her! (kidding of course about the murder...)

    Wow, that is terrible. I just don't understand how some people are capable of so much hurt and destruction to their family.

    I must've missed the thyroid thing -- were you diagnosed with an under/over thyroid?
    It was hyper. I had trouble gaining weight and was always tired. The weight is back but i am EXHAUSTED, They just upped my dose so I hope it helps. I was having a period like every other week but they put me on a hormone that ahs straightened that out,

    I'm so sorry to hear about your brother. That's awful.

    I also love Spanx! I wore them at my brother's wedding a few weeks ago and loved how they sucked everything in.

    I'm sorry you're having trouble getting knocked up. Have you been charting and all that fun stuff? I have my fingers crossed you get your BFP really soon!
    No I havent started charting soon I am thinking the beginning of November I will. I don't know how long to TTC on our own before we ask the Dr for help. I am new to this because our first was a WOOPSIES!

    Oh, good that they figured out what was going on and they are treating it! I remember my doctor saying that having a baby can throw your thyroid all out of whack.
    They are so right. My body is all out of whack!!

  • Do we have the same ex- SIL? The same thing happened to my brother but thankfully no children involved. I am sorry that your family is dealing with this, I know the pain. I hope things get better for your brother. Cant wait to see the pics from the wedding. 
    So you definitely know what we are all going through. It is terrible. I keep thinking of the moment he drove by and saw her car at this guys house (WITH HIS SON INSIDE TOO) . My hear just drops and I cry every time. I don't want him to ever feel pain. He is in shock so I hope that I am feeling his pain for him.
