Thanks Jennifer! Yes it is! DH and I are so happy! The only thing is that TTC might have to be put on hold now though. I really shouldn't be newly pg and moving boxes!

Linda ~ You could always do what I did when we moved the last 2 times. I was just the supervisor. Quentin doesnt like for me ot lift anything heavy. he wont even let me carry the groceries in from the car. The last time we moved, Quentin was in ALS (Airman Leadership School) all day so 3 or 4 of the guys he works with came over and moved everything for us. I love that he has such great friends!!!

Jennifer - good to see you here!

Hi ladies... I am so glad that yesterday is over! I know that sounds just plain awful, but yesterday was so busy! Yesterday was the deadline for our toy collection, so what did everyone do? Yep, you guessed it... they waited until yesterday to drop off all of their toys. Then I had to sort them by age and gender, once that was done I had to separate them for each child... which is harder then you would thing because I know NOTHING about any of the kids, then I had to wrap them all!!!. Needless to say, our collection went great all 33 of the kids (angels that were not picked from the angel trees) numbers were giving to us... and because our toy drive went so well each one of the kids got 3 - 4 gifts! I am so happy, and I hope and pray that they all like their toys!
Then we had the AOH Christmas Party. We had a SS gift exchange, and believe it or not all 14 AOH members like what they got! WooHoo! I was so excited that everyone put so much thought into their gift! A few of the members got me a gifts, and I was so excited. They let me open them last night (last year they made me wait until Christmas!).... I got an Isabelle Bloom statue, the two disc set of the Christmas Story (which we had on VHS and was total worn out from watching it so much!), a bunch of candy, and 2 snowmen decorations for the house. I loved it all so much!
Tonight I have to get the things needed for Christmas dinner and Mike has to pick up Kailey's last gift (which is a tumbling mat!), tomorrow I have to work and ring bells for the salvation army, Friday I do not work (woohoo) and I have to ring bells for the Salvation Army and then I have nothing at all for four days!!!! I am so excited to have time off.
..... the best part is that I can test in 4 days!!
I will be back in a bit for personals... I got to pick up the house (it is 5:45am right now) - kids will be here in two hours and everything is still a mess from last nights party!

Jacque - glad the toy drive went so well. Sorry everyone waited until the last minute to drop off there gifts. You sound liek you live in a nice area. We have no organization out here, so people keep to theirselves. I know my neighbors next to me, and 2 doors down, and who over we meet while walking this summer! on testing in 4 days!

Diane, Jennifer, and Linda: I am having one hell of a time keeping up with the board these last several days. I am so sorry, because out of all of the boards this is the one that I slack off on the most. I think it is because I have known you longer and I think you will "understand". Please forgive me. I am completely caught up on all of the reading and I will do better keeping up from here on out. Now that the holidays are (almost) over I will be able to keep up better!!!
Diane: I hope you get that positive OPK today!!!
Linda: I love your photos, especially the one with Luke and Santa!!! What a good idea. Kailey was the same way, this was the first year she sat on Santa's lap - so EVERY time she saw Santa we had her photo taken with him... we have to make up for lost time! -- That is so cute that he was getting himself dressed. He is such an adorable little boy... especially when he is longeing in his PJ's!!! --- WooHoo for selling the house! You are going to be so busy over the next few weeks. Do not put off TTC until after the move, maybe having your mind on so many other things will help you relax when it comes to TTC!!!
Jennifer: I am glad to see you posting on the buddy groups!!
Love, Hugs, and babydust!
Jacque

Is this to good to be true? ? Do not get excited yet..... Ok ladies, it is 6:30 am on Christmas Day. I tested at 2 am, even earlier then I said I would. I waited and prayed while I was sitting on the toilet.... and looked at the test after 3 minutes. I used a + or - EPT test.... then a few minutes after that (basically after the shock of it being negative again wore off) I got up... and looked at it but this time under the light. I do not have my glasses on... and I can see a very very very very faint line. So I turn the stick at an angle, and yes... I can see the line BUT IT IS SO light.... I think I am willing myself to see it, I knock it up to being tired and go back to bed.... 6:20am I get up to pee again, and look at the SAME test... I can still see the line. I check my cervix, it is still hard and I have a bit of yellowish creamy/eggwhite CM. Not sure what is going on... I do not want to get excited... but maybe my Christmas miracle will come true. I want to test again, but it is 6:34am on Christmas Day I live in the middle of NO WHERE and EVERYTHING IN a 30 mile radius is closed AND THAT WAS MY ONLY TEST.... what to do..... As of right now, at least until someone else sees the line or I get a "real" BFP I am going to stay call and NOT get excited..... I just want to give you an update like I said I would. Merry Christmas! Jacque
