Update on married life

Wow. It's been a while since I've blogged, so will try to catch you all up on everything that's been going on, TTC & life wise.

Well, WE'RE MARRIED!!! :)

It was officially, the best day of my life. We all had such a great time, and being married to my HUSBAND is the best thing in the world. I know so many people say being married doesn't change a thing, well I think it does. I feel like our love has grown, and sometimes I'll catch myself just looking at him.. in a daze.. and thinking how utterly lucky I am! :) Yep, I'm chuffed :)

A slideshow of our photos can be viewed here:


We had the most devine honeymoon as well. We spent 5 blissful nights just my husband & I at the Marriott Surfers Paradise, before picking up our daughter and driving to Sydney for a family holiday. It was GREAT fun! As soon as we get all the photos off the camera I will put some up for viewing on here, and on my Vlog.

My Vlog (as soon as I start recording them) can be viewed at http://www.youtube.com/lladyr

On top of everything that's gone on the past couple of months we also have Miss A's birthday party coming up on Sunday! That should be exciting for her!! She's absolutely rapped about it. the last birthday party she had was when she turned 3, and now she's turning 8!! Our angel is growing up, and more beautiful every day. I went shopping for her this morning for some new clothes, and it's just amazing and so fun watching the transition of different clothes and styles as she grows up <3 . Before she was in to Barbie & Dora, now she's in to Hannah Montana & Bratz & Smiggles! They grow up way too quickly...

Hmm.. on the TTC front. Unfortunately we didn't get the honeymoon baby we wished for, and while I'm absolutely crushed about that, I know our time will come in the not too far future..! It has to, right?

It's been another cycle since our honeymoon, and we used all the necessary steps to get there this cycle, so now it's just a matter of waiting.. waiting.. waiting to see if we've been blessed this cycle. I really hope so. I try not to get myself worked up about it all because I know that's no good for my body, but at the same time it's so hard not to. I find myself (as do other LTTTC women) procrastinating over every single little twinge and honestly, it does my bloody head in..!!

I have the most amazing support around me in terms of my awesome husband and friends, especially my bestie, but I just know people get sick of me babbling on abotu this, so I find confiding on my blog's reassuring...

I've made a decision if we're not UTD this cycle I'm going to try acupuncture & homeopathy next cycle to see if that works. Something's got to get my body in it's right order to do what it's supposed to! A girl I've been following who keeps Vlog's (like a blog, but a video one) has been TTC for 20 months and last cycle fell pregnant with the assistance of homeopathy & acupuncture! So I figure if it can work for her it can work for me! :)

Failing that I will make an appt with the fertility specialist again and go over my options there i.e. Clomid. that's the final straw, which I desperately hope we won't have to go down but worst comes to worst, that is our next step.

Hopefully I'll be back with some good news!
