Yay for Friday!

TGIF! This week has seemed so long!  One more week until spring break! Woo-hoo!

So someone posted a comment on my last post and asked if anyone knew that we were TTC.  Well when we decided last August that we would start TTC in January, I went ahead and went off the pill.  We decided that we weren't going to tell anyone.  We already get asked all the time by friends and family when we are going to have a baby, so we didn't want the added pressure of everyone seriously waiting for us to make the big announcement.  My hubby also hates the term "trying" and likes to prefer to it has not preventing and letting God have control.  When people ask us, we just tell them that probably within the next year or two.  I like the idea of being able to surprise everyone!  So it was a secret between us....at first.... :o)

Well seeing as how I am a girl, I needed to vent/share my excitement.  I finally convinced (told! hehe) Chris to let me talk a little about our plans with my one of my besties (miss you Ash!)  that lives in Iowa.  One reason being I know that she is completely trustworthy and lives far enough away that no one would know! So that is one person that knows.

Then my sister and I are extremely close (Happy birthday Tami!).  (Close enough that she pretty much knows my cycle!) She picked up that it had changed, and not thinking I complained of cramps and some other things.  She figured it out on her own.  So she knows too.  Obviously I know my secret is safe with her.  I'm glad that she figured it out, because I really wanted to tell her.  She has 2 little boys, and we are both so excited about them possibly gaining a new little cousin.  I know that she wants this for me just as much as I want it for myself.
So those 2 special girls are the only ones that know.  Which I'm sure I will catch grief from my mom and a few friends once they find out since I didn't tell them! haha  Once we get pregnant and we decide to tell everyone, I plan on sharing this link with a few people so that they can experience this journey with us.

Last month I didn't let myself get to hopeful.  But something about this month has me really hoping it happens.  I'm trying not to let myself dwell on it too much.  I don't want to become obsessed with trying either.  I know that it is in God's hands and will happen when it is suppose to. 

Have a great weekend!

  1. I'm horrible at keeping "secrets" too! Making the big announcement is always fun and I wish you and the hubby all the best. Is there a possibility you could be pregnant now??
