The Birth of Monkey Mural



I've had my site up since Monday, and I will be posting my ad in the Columbine Courier next week. Here is an example of my ad and my Boo Boo helped a little bit with things, but I did most of the coding and such by myself.:)

Happy Easter



Today is Easter! Here is a picture of me when I was a baby on Easter morning. I'm probably close to two in this picture. I will post family pictures from today on my blog later. Boo Boo gave me a sweet Easter basket this morning. It consisted of a cute lamb that makes a noise, lots and lots of chocolate, and stickers of a baby boo girl. Very cute!:-)

April will become the month of new beginnings! I'm going to have my website up and running:

Monkey Mural

It won't be long! I'm also going to finish my wedding album and wedding video, so I'll have something to occupy my time and thoughts. I'm trying not to think so much about Baby Boo, so I can relax and get pregnant. That is my goal for the month of April, although my website will be up today or tomorrow. I really want to be pregnant when John and I go to New York, so we can spread our good news to his family. Of course, we will spread the same good news to our family before we leave. I think the arrival of an upcoming Baby Boo will make an excellent Mother's Day present for both Grandmas. That is my thought, but I'm not going to dwell on it. I don't want to overstress my body and have those thoughts interfere with getting pregnant.

Coloring Eggs


John and I decided to color Easter eggs tonight. Here is one I did of Baby Boo. We had fun! We will be going to my parent's house on Sunday to celebrate with the rest of my family minus Michael who is in Arizona right now.
Six weeks to go and John and I will be back in the New York Groove...:)

Back to the Drawing Board



At last, I have been unsuccessful again! This time around I'm going to try not to think about it. I'm going to try to distract myself with getting my business started and putting my wedding album together. It is very hard for me to wipe my mind of the consuming thoughts of pregnancy, but I will try. I'll just have to see what happens. I just don't know what else to do.

It Has Been a While...




I haven't written a Blog for 2 weeks! I finished the baby room on the 12th of March, and I'm now just waiting to see if I'm pregnant. I give up trying to guess what my body is feeling because each month it is something different. I always think I might be because of the signs I experienced but I always end up with my period. I'm struggling here between hating my job and trying to get pregnant. I so desperately need some good news. My dad definitely needs to hear some good news! I would love to be able to give that to him, because I need some hope.

I know I have been very sad lately, and I'm driving John crazy with all of my crying. I just feel so sick inside! I don't even want to go to work anymore and the thought of going makes me want to throw up. I hate it there so much, and I can't deal with these people anymore. I can't think of time going by, during the day, where I want to go up to my boss and say that I quit. My heart is breaking, and I know it sounds lame but it is true. I need help!!!

Making Progress....



Here I am painting the future baby's room. No, I'm not pregnant yet, but I want to have a completed baby room ahead of time. Knowing a few pregnant women in my life, I know decorating a baby's room can be very hard, especially if you have morning sickness & just don't feel very good. The walls will be complete but the furniture won't come until I definitely know I'm pregnant.
However, I do have a cradle set-up in the room. It was my cradle when I was a baby.

Anyway, I have made a lot of progress, and I should be completely done by Saturday. All I have to do is finish the sunset by the lighthouse, paint some flowers for the Spring wall, and detail anything that might need it.
Yay, I'm so glad I'm almost done. I started this mural the end of August, and I just kept putting it off for too long. Not anymore! :)

Cute Picture


I received this picture in an e-mail, and I thought it was the cutest thing. It is how I feel most of the time---I just want to relax! :)

Today, I'm going to work on finishing up the mural in the baby's room. I think once it is offically done, I will have one less thing to stress about. Having less stress is important when it comes to getting pregnant!

In other news, John is working on finishing last minute details with his game, so he can release it on Monday. Yay for Boo Boo! I think it looks really cool, and I hope people will like it.
