Me Interviewing... Me

So, for those of you who don't see me a lot, I have been trying to get pregnant for 15 months. So I decided to interview myself about it. That way you won't have to wonder :)

Q: Did it take you a long time to get pregnant with B and E?

A: It took about 6 months with B and 1 month with E.

Q:Have you been to a doctor about it?

A: Yes, she thinks it's possible that I have PCOS (polycystic ovarian syndrome). I have all the symptoms without the glucose problems.

Q: Are you doing fertility treatments?

A: Yes. I have taken clomid twice and femara once. It's really not very fun. I am so moody and grumpy on the clomid.

Q:Are you worried about having multiples?

A: Yes, my sister had twins while taking clomid. But I just have to have faith that if Heavenly Father wants me to have twins, I would have them whether I am doing fertility treatments or not. Also, at this point, I will take whatever I can get.

Q: Would you consider adopting?

A: I will give it a few more months before I think about it. It would be easier not to be pregnant, though!

Q: How are you feeling about it all?

A: Most of the time I'm doing OK. It all has to do with that having faith that Heavenly Father knows what is best for us in our family. It will all work out how it is supposed to. But sometimes I do cry and get sad about it. I know that there are lots of people out there who wait a lot longer and I am grateful that I already have two amazing kids who I love and who keep me busy.

So there you have it. Now you don't have to wonder if we are having anymore kids. And why Erica is almost 4 and we don't have another yet. But if you ever have more questions, just ask. I am not too sensitive about it.

B's Kindergarten Program

This was B in his Kindergarten program. He was so stinking cute!

I don't think he was enjoying it, do you?

He's almost done with Kindergarten! I can hardly imagine having him gone all day next year. Weird!

M family funnies

I'm sure it's hard to see, but the other day E put some silicone mittens on her feet and called them her "chicken hand feet". She was totally cracking me up!!

E's Creative Recital

The day we left for Disneyland E had her last dance recital. She was a cow girl and the dance was so cute. She has loved going to dance. I wish it weren't so far away, but it's a really good studio.

Hard to see, but E doing her dance on stage.

Getting her picture taken by her class picture.

E and her cousin A backstage before the concert. It was so nice for them to have each other during all their classes and rehearsals.

I know, I know

I can't believe that we have been to Disneyland so many times since we have had our passes! It's just so easy to go when you don't have to pay for the entrance fees. We did drive this time. I think that if we had a choice we wouldn't choose to do that again! It is a loooooong time in the car for everyone. But we still did have fun.


B waiting in line to get on Toy Story Mania. He's so silly!

I think the highlight was going to Breakfast with Minnie. B and E love to have their pictures taken with all the characters. I think that is their favorite thing about Disneyland.

My Latest Projects

Here are the sewing projects I have been working on lately:

I bought a plain t-shirt from Target for 9 bucks and felt like it needed a little something. So out of some scraps of a dress I am going to make for Erica I made a few "yo-yo's". I think it turned out pretty cute.

I bought this pattern from a lady on Etsy. It is from a Utah designer who I just love. It was my first project doing shirring. I've always been a little intimidated by anything that has shirring, but it was surprisingly easy!

E's New Skirt

This is sort of a side note, but look how long E's hair was getting!! And then I cut about 3 inches off. Now I think I need to cut more off. She is always chewing on her hair and it is damaged from too much hair-doing fun. This is her hair straightened. Normally it didn't look this long because of her curls.

This is the new skirt I made for E. She will end up having so many clothes because I am always in the process of making her something new.
