Babies, India & More

That's what's been going on in our lives the past week. I'll start with India. When Corey went back to work after vacation last week his boss approached him about going to India in October, yes that's right India, not Indiana. Evidentally Corey is super good at what he does and his company wants to send him there to train some of their offshore people. I'm sure as he reads this he won't be very happy that I am "tooting his horn" for him but somebody's got to do it because he surely won't. So Corey heads off to India on October 17th for a week. Yesterday he was asked to stay for two weeks...ugh, the wife says no, one week is long enough! Actually I'm really proud of him for this opportunity. He only went FTE with the company 3 weeks before they asked him to go and one of those weeks we were on vacation.

Now on to babies...we met with the fertility specialist here in St. Louis yesterday. He was a really nice guy. We are too late to do clomid and IUI this cycle so we are going to try something else...I'll spare you the details. Depending on what happens will determine whether or not we'll do IUI next month. What's going to have to happen is that there is going to have to be a baby cooking, if there is no baby cooking then it's on to IUI.

The girls are doing good, Aly starts dance next week. As soon as Ashy B starts going potty like a big girl she can take dance too. At the rate we are going she might have to wait until next fall. She's a stubborn little thing, it's not that she can't do it, she won't do it. She screams and throws herself on the floor every time you mention it.

We've been visiting a really great church here. I am hoping that this will be the church for us. We are headed there tonight for our 3rd service. We will be visiting one more church this weekend and then we will make our final decision. I'm ready to make a decision and get rooted and grounded. I'll divulge more information once we make our decision.

That's about it, I've got a few "irons in the fire" and hopefully I'll have some news to share later this week...until then.

I love this pic that my Mom snapped of my baby sister and me while on vacation.

I was wondering how the Doc appointment wet? I was planning on calling you today to find out. Corey doesn't need to know if you share any gory details ha Ha! My lips are sealed, as always! JK Corey, I'll bet you're worried right about now!

I think the opportunity to go to Indoa is awesome!!! He is obviously very good at what he does and he deserves to be recognized. who better than his biggest cheerleader to toot his horn!

Ah, potty training... I remember havig to wait with Bub until he was almost 3 years old. Dad kept asking me if I was ever going to do it. I actually got mad about that since it wasn't HIM who was inconvienced, it was me. Besides, we were moving to Texas that summer and I didn't need or want one more stressful thing in my life! Sound familiar? Ashy B is JUST like her Auntie Lou in that regard. She won't do something until she is good and ready. You have to pick your battles. That I have learned over time and aggravation, is called WISDOM.

I LOVE that pic of you and "Lulu".
Love, Mom/GIGI

I can feel your pain with the travelling husband, Bill went to China for 2 weeks earlier this summer and is gone all the time! Hopefully that won't be the case for you!! I'm praying for you in the baby dept., my dream HAS to come true! and I'm anxiously awaiting other news! Dance starts next Monday for us!

Glad to hear you are doing well. That's awesome about your husband. I can't believe you are seriously thinking about going back to work and having another baby. What's wrong with you? What does Corey say about that?
