PREGNANT!!!!

Yes, that's right! I am pregnant with # 3. I am so happy and feel so blessed that God is given us another baby. I am due in January, 2014...I just can't believe this wonderful news!!! I am very excited for Lucy and Charlie to have another sibling so I pray everything goes well!!! When I have sh computer I will write in more detail about ttc but rigt now I just have the iPhone which takes forever to type anything...
I had my blood drawn on p+ 16 and my hcg level was 337 which is great for me. I don't remember if I blogged about Charlie's hcg # but his was very low 13. I must have gone in for a blood draw on p+10 or something but I wasn't really charting well with him. Anyways, I am on progesterone again even though I don't know what my numbers are, oh well, fine with me ;) this was my fourth cycle after getting my cycle back.  The first two cycles we tried everything natural. Cycle  #3 I used some Chinese herbs and then cycle 4 dr. H.ilgers put me in hcg p+ 3,5,7,9 like I have been on in the past. Well, that did the trick!!! I was ovulating on cd 21 and having 8 day lutel phases so when I made it to day p+ 13 I started getting hopeful and poas. Same for days, p+14,15,16 I will have to post a pic if how many tests I actually took, rediculously hoping!!! So I wanted to see the hcg fading on the sticks or staying and it was staying! I am so happy with this news and grateful for Gods generosity during this stressful time in our lives! We are moving to upstate NY in s few weeks and this news really puts a smile on my face! Thanks Sew for putting up with my obsessive texting, haha!!! (Ok maybe I did have time to type this out...funny)

***if anyone can spare some prayers for a healthy pregnancy I would really appreciate it!!!! Xo

Many changes...

We have had a lot going on lately!!!! Some of you already know our news , we're moving! Yup, as much as I don't want to it really is a necessary move for us! My husband just couldn't pass up the new job opportunity and so this move should really be beneficial in the long term :)
We are going to be living in or near auburn ny. If anyone lives near there please feel free to contact me because I would love to have some friends there ;)

In cycle news I started taking hcg injections again. I am not ovulating until day 21 and only have an 8 day lp so hopefully this should help out!

Also, I want to try doing the whole 30 challenge. I think it would be really good for me so I just might record what I eat on this blog for 30 days. I was suppose to start today but after a really long night with kids and just trying to survive today FB came home and asked if I wanted a bagel sandwich a mocha from my favorite place... I just couldn't resist!!!! Ug! Off to a rough start!

My kids are getting so big! I don't really feel like Charlie is a baby because he walks so well and he is ALL boy, super tough but such a lover!!! Lucy is really developing her own train of thought like shell say, you look cute mama ( as I stand naked with tiger print underwear on). I lover her sweet comments! And not so sweet like stop it mama! We're working on that! Anyways, I only have my iPhone to type this on so there are going to be plenty of mistakes in this postp. Just wanted to update a bit.

Has anyone done the whole 30 challenge? Any tips on how to do itsuccessfully?
