Back to Reality

We are actually on the plane back to Nashville as I type this. --it is a Word Doc…but still, we are on the plane-- Fun stuff! I really am not looking forward to getting back into the normal routine of real life :( Our trip was awesome, relaxing, carefree, and so much fun…Even when Stace & Court were ganging up against me!!

Our flight out was delayed nearly 2.5 hours…so we spent close to 6 hours hanging out in the Nashville airport, with no free wifi…or I’d have probably updated that we were super bored. But if we had free wifi we could’ve watched Netflix or something!! We didn’t get into SD until around 11:00 (2:00am our time). Needless to say we were exhausted!

We went to Sea World on Thursday, and all three of us got fried. It didn’t even get that hot, like 79 tops, but it was definitely sunny!! Whoops…I guess I’d rather get sunburned the first day than the last day. Now at least most of it has turned into a tan :)

We did most of the touristy things, walked on the beach, ate too much, drank some delicious coffee, bought some souvenir trinkets, and saw the sights. I will post some pictures once I get them to the computer. We really didn’t take too many pictures though. :/

Stacey has only lived in his condo for 3 weeks, and he didn’t have his wifi set up yet…or maybe I would have posted from there, too :) My phone also had less than average service where he lives, it was kind of nice to really not be super concerned with the happenings of FB or worrying about my phone all the time for a while.

Ok…so the moment we’ve all been reading for. The deed. The big show. The baby dance? Ha ha. Well, original plans were to insem Friday, Sunday and Monday. Friday we all pretty much just crashed & didn’t even worry about it (ok I was worried, but it really wasn’t a huge issue because it most likely would’ve been too early anyway). So, Sunday was the first one. It was weird. I knew it was going to be a little weird, but we were hilarious and bought a sippy cup to use for our collection cup. We named it the Death Star…not sure if that was a bad idea…but we did. We tried our best to make light of the situation. After all was done we convened in the living room to continue watching the Olympics, like it was no big deal. Because it was no big deal really! I used preseed & an instead cup (as best as I could, it wasn’t the easy thing to use, but after I didn’t use it Monday I could definitely tell how it holds things in place.) I probably should have used it after Monday’s insem too, but I thought I laid around long enough (a little over an hour watching more Olympics of course) for the spermies to get where they were going…we will see right??

I didn’t get a +OPK while we were there, I really didn’t expect to, but it would’ve been nice. Now we are hoping to see that tonight or tomorrow night. I had the normal CM that leads up to O, so I know we aren’t too terribly far off! My temps are still low, which means we didn’t miss it. For now we wait to see that temperature rise & then we get to wait some more!! I guess this is the start of our TWW? Or should we start counting from O? If it is now, I am feeling pretty stress free. We have done what we can for this try… All we can do is leave it up to the luck of the draw.  (P.s. we all found shiny lucky pennies at Sea World.) I’m supposed to start my next cycle the 22-24 of August…at least that’s what FF says, let’s hope that’s like 9 months off :)  

Court is napping, so I may try to do the same for a little while. We should touch down in a couple of hours.  

Until next time!! Baby Dust!
