Way overdue...

If you are looking to 99% forget about ttc, adopt an 8-month old puppy! And then have your brother (21 yrs) come visit for a week! And then have your inlaws visit the following weekend (this coming)!!

I have been a tad busy lately ;-)

I come to read my blogroll, but I haven't had the mental presence to formulate intelligent comments, but please know I'm praying for all the happy and broken hearts (HUG)

Banana and Bert are doing really great :) It has been alot of fun to have them both, albeit a lot of work, too, but it is worth it :) They are getting more comfortable with each other every day (taking naps next to each other, playing nicely instead of visciously), and we are starting to notice them acting together, which is neat. You know, if one goes outside, the other one wants to, and they will both run to the door when Mr. A gets home from work, and they both try to sneak upstairs when I'm taking a shower... Hard to believe that less than 2 weeks ago his life consisted of a crate at the shelter. He is a very happy, playful dog, and we're so happy to have him here :)

And we had a blast with my brother, but he's been living with my parents all summer (no internet and no cable) before his last year at college this fall, and so needless to say I think he watched sport.scenter 3 hours per day and movies 2 hours per day, and floated in the pool the balance of the daylight ;-) We did do some yoga together (a new routine on ne.tflix instant play that he found), and it kicked.my.butt. I'll stick with my normal one where I don't feel completely inept!!

Despite all the (fun) chaos lately, I'm 2dpo, and if you can believe it, we were together O-1, O, and O+1!! That combined with the new puppy, we are sure to see two lines in two weeks ;-)

Glad to hear that things are going well. I'm happy the pups continue to get along and that you had a nice visit with your brother. Not a bad BDing schedule for having two pups in the house, too! I hope you caught the egg. :)

That's AWESOME news!! Great timing, good distractions to keep the 2ww from feeling so awfully long... I hope this is your BFP cycle!!!

One thought: your scheduling is impressive. Praying that this one is the one!

Praying for 2 lines for you! That would be awesome, and just like life to hand you everything at once! :)

I absolutely LOVE shelter/rescue dogs! They seem to love you so much and appreciate you, because they know how good they have it. Or maybe I'm anthropomorphising. I just know that my mastiff I rescued was a special special angel. So glad your puppies are getting along!

I hope this is finally it for you!

Good to hear from you, A! It sounds like you're keeping busy and enjoying life.

Glad that you had such a great visit with your bro and i hope you have a good visit with the ILs.

And hoping for a surprise off treatment positive for both of us in a couple of weeks. That would be amazing. :-D

All good things - so glad you are enjoying your pups, and had a nice time with your brother. And, as always, praying for your miracle!
