I think I am in countdown mode?

Not much longer and I am taking my girls to DISNEYLAND! My husband decided that he is not a disney kind of guy and choose to stay home and I said I was still going to go!! Whoo hoo!. Sorry, I have never been in my entire life! My parents used to say that they would take us.. they never did. I did not want to do the same thing to my girls, so I am doing it! We are gone for a week. I am going to be away from my computer, and not sure I can do it! lol.

For those of you who have made payments recently, they are being scheduled for when I get back home, but I have added an incentive to make up for the wait:) Most people seem to be pleased!

I actually just bought myself a laptop as well, and was so tempted to bring it with me and continue working. I felt in the end, that I would be too worried about bringing it and forgetting it, that I figure it was best to leave it at home. I know that I could use the re-charge as well so probably for the best.

The laptop is going to create alot of good changes for me. My computer currently is in my office downstairs. During the day its almost impossible to come online and do any emails, readings, or scheduling or even replies. My youngest senses that I have left the room and is down here with me and wanting Barney on the other computer. With having a lap top, I can take an hour while she watches her barney movie and reply or schedule and focus more time at night completing my readings and updating my blog! Its going to accomplish alot and i am so excited for this!

So thank you all for your patience while I went through the grieving process of lossing my mom back in March, and for the fact I am offline for a week. I love you all and looking forward to growing together for many years to come!

Since my mind seems to be thinking Disney, when I get back, big blog contest to come. its going to be challenging, but FUN!!!

So do I win the clutzy mommy award?

I do believe everything happens in three's, so I am just wondering what is coming next!

A little while ago, I was here in the computer room with my youngest. She wanted to go back upstairs so off we went. I headed for the door that goes through the laundry room so we could make our way up there while carrying my youngest. Well I forgot about the bike helmet that was right at the doorway :( I stuck my foot in it and started to loose my balance. You know that running stumble you do when trying to regain your footing? Well I was doing that and trust me, it did not look graceful! This is something you would have expected on Amercia's Funniest Home Videos! Only the unfunny part was I was hold my almost 2 year old! I managed to cradle her and took the fall/impact on myself. My elbow was skinned, my knee bruised and I hurt all over. My youngest was crying, but more from being startled. When she looked at me, my hair was in my face, she stopped crying, fixed my hair and then started to cry again!

This morning, I was getting ready to have a shower. Usually my youngest will try and sneak in with me. This morning my husband left for work later, so it allowed me to sneak in while she was distracted. I get into the bathroom, turn the shower on, move the curtain and goto stick my right foot into the tub. Well the bottom of the tub might as well have been a slip and slide that's how slippery it was. I explained to a friend it was like stepping into butter and having no traction. Before I could even so "Oh *$#@!" I was on the bottom of the tub. I smashed my nose/face on the back of the tub (its one of those deep ones) and my left leg thigh on the side of the tub as it was dragged down into the tub with me. The worse part, was the shower was obviously not adjusted well and the water seemed to be cold. My husband came rushing in to find out what happened, and the first words out of my mouth was that the water was cold! He kinda laughed and asked if I had horrible balance. I explained what happened, and then continued with my shower. Last night my two girls had a bath with ALOT of bubbles. I guess when we drained the bath, it did not all go down. I will remember that for next time.

Lesson learned... and now about to pass it on to you mommies or soon to be mommies (and I guess daddies who do this too!) If you are taking your child into the shower with you, hop in first.... then turn to pick up your little one and bring them in. Had I been climbing in while holding my youngest (which I ALWAYS do) she would have had the brunt of the accident. Freaks me out to think "what if".

I am "okay". My nose is sensitive and sore. Not broken, but I am sure there will be a bruise there later. There is a nice color bruise on my left thigh (inner) though that hurts to sit down!

Something else to try?

I posted awhile ago asking for stories of inspiration for everyone on my blog. So for those of you who have emailed me with your storey thank you! I have not replied to everyone as of yet, but please know that I have recieved it and will be in touch! Here is the first storey of one of my clients on what worked for them!

I also wanted to share that I did get a BFP last May, using Soy in the same matter you would use clomid. That worked for me even when Clomid did not. I think it's worth looking into and trying if your not O'ing. Sadly I did lose that baby, because it was in my tubes. I'm 6dpo and of my 1st cycle after a long break. Hopefully I have some good news to share soon!~

A.J.

I asked my client to explain more on how she used this suppliment and this is what she provided.


With the soy, I take it cycle day 3-7 and I take about twice the mg as I took when I O'd using clomid. So I take 120mg of soy and I take it at night. So just like you would take clomid.


If anyone has any questions about what she has done, please feel free to write a comment in this section and perhaps she can either reply if she is able or you can email me and I will try and get the information for you.

What will your obituary say about you?

I know, sounds like an ugly topic and who wants to think about thier own death? Your probably wondering why someone so positive and upbeat and doesn't focus on anything negative would put a topic up like this for discussion at all? Well, actually the reason is very simple. To make you think... to make you figure out what you want your life to be. Because in the end, its the memories that people will remember. For my mom, we wrote that she had a heart of gold. She always went above and beyond for everyone she met. Whether friend, family or stranger, everyone got amazing treatment from my mother.

For me, I would love to be remembered as someone who cared, someone who spent her life trying to help others. I think that I am actually going to try and do more than just that. In the next few years I am going to try and make sure that there is more to me. That I enjoy my life as much as possible and have fun. Learn...LIVE.

The mommy instinct... who would have known!

Well last night was a "wierd" night for me. I goto bed around 11pm and had just started to fall asleep. I then felt my door open and I looked just as my soon to be 7 year old was closing the door. I called to her which she opened the door again and came in. I asked her "why are you out of bed?" Shes the last one I would expect to wander out of her bed! She told me she did not know. I offered to walk her back to her room and then again asked her why she was out of bed and if everything was okay. She again said she did not know. I tucked her in and headed back to my own room wondering if she had been sleep walking? (She's never done it before)

1:30am has me bolting out of my bedroom and running up and down the hallway. At first, being jolted awake by who knows what I am confused as to why I am even out of bed! I walked fast from my room to the end of the hallway into my eldests room. Perhaps I thought it was her that I was now hearing cry. Then I realize its not coming from there and I am having trouble pinpointing where the crying is coming from! I go back down the hall to realize that my youngests door is wide open. (its usually almost shut) and then I realize shes not in there. I start to head towards the stairs and can hear her crying. I go downstairs and realize that shes standing at the doorway to my computer room and is bawling cause I am not there. Shes never done this. Anytime shes woken up she comes right into my room. I think that my "mommy instinct" kicked in when she was on her way into the computer room. I dont think that I would have heard any crying from our room and the baby monitor is not hooked up in my room!

What a wierd experience. I think it was a rough night for her too as she ended up in my room once more after that!
