No one ever said I was going to be good at this

It seems like everyday I think about blogging, but does it ever happen? NO. The past few weeks have been very eventful. We took a trip to Covington Kentucky/Cincinnati to visit David's army buddy Zach and his girlfriend Becca. We had a wonderful Halloween weekend that was action packed with an amusement park, bengals game and of course dressing up silly. David and I just went to Goodwill to find old tacky clothes and cheap wigs and mustaches completed the attire. David and Zach have a great friendship and it's always a good laugh hearing about their old army shenanigans. Upon returning from our trip I had a job interview at a wine shop in Wake Forest and I got it!! It's going to be exactly the type of part time work I was looking for. I work roughly about 10-15 hrs a week, they are flexible with my schedule and hello, I get to work around WINE! After working my first 2 hour shift I got a $2 raise so I think it's going to stick. I know I said I was okay not getting a  2nd job but with the cruise coming up in January I could really use the extra cash- not to mention it will help to pay off some of these credit card bills!...Last weekend we headed to Seven Lakes to have "Thanksgiving" with my parents and Jason and Julie came down from Charlotte. Jason and Julie will be in Ohio with her family for the actual holiday so we created our own. It truly felt like Thanksgiving, full meal, full bellies and of course we ended the night with our favorite dominoes game, Mexican Train.

My last little tidbit is that I took my last birth control pill on Sunday! This was the last thing that needed to happen in preparation for a babe. I have been taking prenatal vitamins for over a month now and I have a Dr. appt on the 22nd to make sure we are "good to go". I have drilled it in David's head that I am not to get prego before our cruise, I would be miserable! I am trying to keep an open mind and think positive. It's difficult for me at times to not let my mind wander to bad places and thoughts, like what if we can't conceive or what if it takes forever or what if I miscarry. There are so many "what ifs" and I keep having to tell myself STOP! I am just going to go with the flow, wherever that takes us. But I have a feeling this lil' blog is going to get interesting.
