Welcome to the ttc in fall group..........AUTUMN ACORNS!!!!

Finally did what I promised to do and uploaded some of my crochet pictures! Working on a me sized blanket at the moment and I get the feeling it will take a while... Oh well! The one thing I do have is time!

that looks great! I must say I'm a little bit jealous, I'm this close to giving up crocheting all together, I've been trying non stop for days now and not getting beyond the chain stitch :cry:
 
The chain is the worst part for me! I always yarn over which is bad and then I remember and have to frog it :growlmad: Keep trying! :thumbup: just keep your chain loose and carry on. The worst you can do is go wrong and that's not the end of the world!
 
thanks but I don't get how to make a stitch at all :dohh: I don't know why I'm just not getting it :nope:
 
I watched loads of videos on youtube and then Mack made hers and all of a sudden, it made sense! And it took a lot of attempts to get my chain vaguely okay! :haha:
 
The chain and the first row are the most difficult by far, everything after that point is so much easier!
 
Yay Mrs. T! Losts of :dust:!!!

Sorry, music81, good luck with this cycle. :hugs:


Well, everyone can ignore the incessent babble of the past week,"this line as dark as that line . . .did I O twice . . .blah blah blah." My opk today was in your face darker than the test line. :happydance: I am so psyched. On to :sex: and what feels like another TWW, but now I know.
 
Mrs T - :wohoo:

Music - sorry to hear the :witch: got you

Mouse Chicky - why are you on hear and not :sex:...:rofl:
 
My feeling is that maybe they don't realize how not fun it is to know that your family is ready to grow, like someone is missing. My mom has been the worst, but they got pg in high school so I don't think they know what it's like to feel this ready. She always tells me you should travel first, and on and on.
All I've really wanted for my life is to be happily married and to be a mom. Her goals were different than mine, therefore different priorities. I'd understand if there were reason to believe that we weren't ready but those aren't ever her reasons why we should wait. She's not just being a concerned parent who is trying to make me think it through, she has crossed the line into trying to be controlling.

I had a few family members w/those strong opinions...I did my best to ignore them and of course when we conceived Mackenzie everyone (including the nay-sayers) were elated. Now they are asking when BabyMack will have a lil brother or sister...go figure. Anyway, I hope those of you having family/friends who are not supportive can blow it off and be happy with your decision to conceive...everyone else will fall in line soon enough :hugs:

Morning ladies!

Well... I've got some exciting news! OH and I had a TTC chat yesterday cos I told him I was most prob fertile atm. We were originally going to wait another week to start trying cos, even though our nurse told us it would be fine to start TTC as soon as we finish our malaria tablets (which we did last week), I'd read on the internet that "Ideally, you should wait 2 weeks after". But we figured that if a professional told us that it's fine and cos it'd be unlikely that we'd conceive straight away, we'd forget about the waiting for another week so.... we are officially TTC now!

Last night we :sex: and according to my yourdays account I should be fertile between last Friday and this Wednesday! :happydance: and my new ticker says I’m due to ov in 2 days! I know we haven't had the whole of this cycle to properly try, but I'm just so happy we are actually trying fullstop! :cloud9:

:happydance: Happy for you

Very perty, I tried a blanket sometime ago...it was a disaster. My mom crochets everything...I guess that gene must skip a generation :)

Hubby and I went and looked at a lot today...we're planning on buying and building our home next spring. I fell in love w/the property though and don't want to wait. It's 37.99 acres with it's own lake :cloud9: We are renting a terrific place right now that is on 2 acres, but our area is very rural with lots of land...we really want to have livestock and an organic garden (we have one here but it is very small). This place we looked at today is at the top of a large hill with beautiful views, lots of wildlife...it'd be perfect for Mackenzie and Baby-to-Be to grow up on :) It's close to our middle daughters school, located smack dab inbetween the two cities we do our shopping in and I could go on and on...I'm in love w/it and don't wanna wait lol.

I tested again today and got a :bfn: *pout* I'm only 10 dpo so it really is still early. Hubby is gonna stop at the store in the morning and get me another 3 pack...oh I am such a POAS addict :(

Exciting opportunity for a new place! We want to have some acreage too. Hopefully we will be able to start looking in a year or two. :hugs: for the :bfn: hopefully you are just testing too soon! Fx'd and :dust:
 
It is sooo perfect. I just hate that hubby and I can't get it now. I'm working so hard on our credit :( We've always paid cash for everything. He has never had a credit account and I only have a few. So, we're opening credit cards and taking out bank loans...we have the income but he literally has no credit file/score. Can't get financed that way. The mortgage lady I spoke with said 6 months of on time payments to our new credit cards and bank loans and it should give him enough to gain a score. It feels like where being punished for not borrowing. C'est la vie I suppose. The craziest part is that our mortgage on a new home on that land with the highest interest rate right now...is $300 less than we pay in rent. In what weird reality should that be the way of things? *grrr* Okay, I'm done venting. :)
 
That is really frustrating.
When DH and I got married we had 2 cars that we're completely paid off, then my car kicked the bucket, we needed a second one because we worked on different sides of town. I had no credit so we could only finance one under DHs name. It was stressful that no credit is sometimes treated like bad credit. Though we got really lucky when we moved into our first apartment because their policy was "no credit is good credit to us!" I wish all businesses looked at it that way!

Well I had a wonderful birthday today hubby took me out to lunch then took me on a shopping spree for new clothes and a new pair of sunglasses. Then when we got home he told me that when we are in France I can buy a Louis Vuitton Bag & Wallet...:yippee: I have already picked it out, and I want it NOW :brat:
 
Hey everyone!

I'm sorry for everyone who got AF this weekend. Lots of baby :dust: for you!

We go see my OH sister's new baby today. I'm so excited. Can't wait to hold & cuddle him. :) And I will give her our present.. a cake made out of diapers. My first try though, but I'm really satisfied with my work. I'd upload a picture if you want to see?!
 
Hey ladies

It has been awhile Im glad to say I have a new laptop on the way on Wednesday I have missed getting on to see how everyone has been

I'm in the TTW again it doesn't seem like a long time from the last one

OH left last night to go work overseas but will be home a few weekends so looking forward to that

It is my birthday on the 14th and AF is due on the 16th I think I will test on that day If I have the will power not to poas before then

KellyC I love your snoopy picture I sent in to a letter to my OH when he was in Afghanistan with that on it

Sending lots of :dust: to everyone

Xxx
 
Cheercoach, sorry about the bfn, fx for the next test to be a bfp!

Miss Redknob, happy brithday!!!! Have fun in France, just be very careful of pickpockets! My friend was on her way to Louis Vutton and had her passport with her to get her taxes credited and it was stolen.. so she got stuck in the country an extra week almost and had to get a new passport made at the embassy.

Laurgil, it is nice to hear from you again, good luck in this tww, hope it works out. And a happy early birthday!

We are going to my DHs parents for lunch today, which is fine, it is always good food and a nice time, but we have to be there at 1 which means we will be there till 5 and that basically takes up the entire day... so that is a little annoying... but oh well. Hope everyone is enjoying this long weekend!
