69 Hours and Counting...

Hello everyone. No I did not fall off the face of the earth, I have been in Tulsa on business. I feel like February 20th-today happened in a matter of 12 hours. It is insane how I have lost track of time. First of all:

Isn't that exciting? We are thrilled. That is a horrible picture, but it is the only one we have. We are moved in! We love our house. Things could not be better as far as that goes. After I had my breakdown, I pulled myself back together and "put my big girl panties on." As my husband and I began to reflect on our life, we realized how blessed we are. I began to make a mental list of things we have that others don't. (1) Great family (2) a Great marriage (3) True love (4) AMAZING friends - We really are lucky people. If this does not work out for us, we will be disappointed, but we will be OK. Back to the amazing friends... we had SO many people come by Saturday to see us and our new house. THANK YOU ALL FOR THE WONDERFUL HOUSEWARMING GIFTS! (You know you will get your thank you from me, but it will not be timely as usual due to me not knowing which box my thank you cards are in). Oh, and Tammi... I will get you!! Now with that said, not that I do not love each and everyone of you BUT we did have a favorite house guest. Being in need of a good laugh, this was perfect:

Look at little Mason! Is that not the funniest thing that you have ever seen? To be his age! He thought that tipping over and over and over in this box was about as good as going to Disneyworld! My husband kept laughing hysterically, to the point of tears, at how his body would contort in the most unusual positions. That made our day! Thank you Mason...we needed a good laugh!

Moving on to the 69 hours... we find out if we are pregnant Friday! I will go in at 9am and then call back in before 4 to hear the results. The results will be ready by 12, but I have a meeting until 3ish. Talk about some stress... Why did I give up chocolate for Lent? Anyway, we had dinner with my nurse and her fiancee last night and discussed what to do. She figured that she would call me during the day and leave a message on my voicemail if I was pregnant. That sounded like a good idea until I thought about it. If she did not call because she was busy, or my blood results were not in, I would be a HOT mess all day. Also, we can "cheat" and take a home test, but we have decided not to. There is a chance of false positive and also I wouldn't be able to sleep Thursday night. What a decision though! I will keep everyone posted!

One more thing... Honest Scrap
So my new "fertility-challenged" friend sent me this, and I think that it is a great idea.

Here are the rules:1) Choose a minimum of 7 blogs that you find brilliant in content or design. 2) Show the 7 winners names and links on your blog, and leave a comment informing them that they were prized with "Honest Scrap." 3) List at least 10 honest things about yourself.

Here are our 10 scraps:

Amy:1 - I am a sucker for designer purses, and I refuse to buy knock-offs. I feel like I need to buy at least one a year. Next year, it will be a Chanel bag.

2 - I have an obsession with the movie, Twister. (Yes, I know that the acting is horrible)

3 - I have a compulsive shopping disorder, seriously. I buy stuff all the time. I like to buy things for other people and myself. It does not stop.

4 - I get really lazy in the winter and will go weeks without shaving my legs.

5 -I am not as confident as I appear. People always comment how they wish that they could have my strong self esteem, but I am not completely happy with myself and can hardly sleep when people don't like me.

6 - I once broke into my high school boyfriends home. (Yes, Eddie, eat it up). I called him and left an insane message on his home machine and once I hung up I immediately regretted it. Since his parents loved me, they had given me their garage code, so me and my friend Eddie went into their house while they were away and erased the message.

7 - I always pictured myself leaving Oklahoma.

8 - I hate my tattoo and wish I could remove it. What was I thinking???

9 - I truly feel that my husband was meant for me. I honestly do not believe that our marriage could be stronger. God smiles when he sees what he has done with us.

10 - I have an obsession with Sour Patch Kids. I could eat boxes at a time. Oooh, and Peach Rings.

Z:

1. I love reading Harry Potter books.

2. I only like to wear designer clothes; even down to my underwear.

3. Sometimes, if I get a little crazy, I like to rap like Ludacris.

4. I love smoking big, fat cigars.

5. I am too reserved and do not speak my mind enough.

6. I knew Amy was the one I wanted to marry within our first month of dating.

7. I am obsessed with movies, books and t.v. shows about the Mafia.

8. I can watch the same movie over and over again.

9. I really am an OU football fan.

10. I get my nose hairs waxed.

We are now passing the torch to:Blessed Beyond Measure (sorry, we don't have 7 blog friends..)
