Begging

Kya has gotten into a bad habit of begging. Our fault I guess but she won't seem to stop no matter what we do. So, we figured oh well we would have fun with it. Today we had some chicken wings and she was really wanting some of those.

Messes I Make While Cleaning

Last week I was trying to clean behind the dryer to get some of the "junk" that always falls back there and in trying to pull the hose closer to me knocked over the vauum which hit the garbage can (which was full) and knocked it down. I had made a big mess. Aaron just came around the corner when he heard it and said, "What happened?" I guess that is what I get for trying to clean.

Kya's Haircut

Took Kya to get groomed last week on my day off. She is looking good now and ready for summer! I like it when she gets cut really short. Aaron, however, prefers her to be long. I just think she looks cleaner. If it didn't cost so much to get it done I would get her groomed more often.

Why

Found out today that someone else is pregnant. All I can do is ask why? Why is it everyone else and not us? Is it ever going to be us? I came home from church, crawled in bed and just cried. Aaron came in and just layed there with me. Neither one of us even said a word. We are both so tired of it we could scream.

Update on Infertility

Surprise Surprise...we're STILL not pregnant. All I have to say about that is a great big UGH....

Nothing new to report though. I haven't been going to the doctor or anything. We're still trying I guess you would say but its not a forced matter anymore it just happens when it happens. I would definitely say this has relieved a lot of the stress and tension on both of us. We're both happy to just be more relaxed about it.

It does still bother me but there isn't much I can do about it. I feel like I would give almost anything to be a mom and raise children. Above all I know its in God's hands and in His timing. This is probably the biggest trial I feel like I have faced before but as we go through it I am working more on trusting God and knowing that He has a plan for us. Maybe it involves children and maybe it doesn't. I'm praying that the Lord would use this in my life to help me trust Him more and have faith for what He has laid ahead of us.

Pulled this next part from a poem I posted earlier...

All you seek, I could give; and pleased you would be.
You would have what you want -
But you wouldn't know Me.
You'd not know the depth of my love for each saint;
You'd not know the power I give to the faint;

The glow of my comfort late into the night,
The faith that I give when you walk without sight,
The depth that's beyond getting just what you asked
Of an infinite God, who makes what you have last.

Friend For A Week

My in-laws went up to Wisconsin a week or so ago and we watched their cat Sienna. Kya absolutely loves Sienna. I wouldn't say that Sienna loves Kya but they seem to get along pretty well. They end up chasing each other around. Mainly Kya is the one doing the chasing and then Sienna ends up turning around and smacking her with her paw. But, they did really well together this last week and we actually found them hanging out together a few times and took some pictures!

First And Last Probably

Aaron went fishing the other day at Eureka Lake while I was working and he actually ended up catching something! Just the one fish but normally he doesn't catch any so that is good! He was pretty excited anyway!

New Form of Exercise

Since it is starting to get so gorgeous outside I decided I wanted to try to do some exercise outside. I've always enjoyed rollerblading but just haven't done it in years so I went out and got myself a pair and Aaron and I went tonight. He ran while I bladed but it still works! We'll see how well I keep up with it! I wish Kya could go with me but poor thing would be dragging behind!

"I want my ball"

Ever since we have had Kya she has loved digging in her bag to get her toys out. Well, yesterday I caught her doing it and figured I would just take a picture. But, she just kept on digging so I started taping it. She knew exactly what she wanted!

$6.68

Recently I've been trying to save a little more at the store with actually checking the ads and cutting coupons. A friend of mine gave me a couple coupons for 1.50 off bacon and then I already had coupons for the veggies and they were on sale. Also, the butter was on sale for $1.50 and the cream cheese was only .50 cents. Kroger had the eggs on sale for $1.00 also. So after the coupons and the sale items it was only $6.68. This seems pretty good to me. Maybe not to other people but usually I would've paid somewhere between $12-$15! We'll see if we can keep it up with watching the sales and the coupons!
