The fun never stops...

Dom cracks me up! Dom always likes to go bowling...and I suck at it! I think he likes to go because he knows that he can beat me. So we took Desi bowling on Saturday because there is a cheap bowling alley close to our house. I did really well for me the first game...I got my highest score ever of 112 AND I beat Dom. Which is a first...and will probably never happen again. Then everything crashed during the second game...I bowled a 68...and Dom bowled a 164. Desi even beat me, and she's only 4! Dom and I have often said that we should join a bowling league...but I don't want to until I'm a little better. I think instead we are just going to go bowling a few times a month. The alley by our house has really good summer specials so it's cheaper then us going to a movie!

Dom and Desi

So Dom and I had most of last week off since he has vacation time to burn. Desi came over on Thursday night and Dom planned for it to be a Star Wars night since Desi wanted to watch the movies with him. I have always refused to watch Star Wars but Desi asked me to watch with her, and I can't say no...so I've finally watched them. While we were watching, Desi crawled up on Dom's lap and told him that he's her favorite friend. It was so cute! We went bowling on Friday and it was hilarious that Desi wanted to bowl just like Dom. Dom seriously throws the ball down the lane, so Desi kept trying to throw the ball, so funny! Desi is coming over again on Friday and she's excited because the Justin Bieber movie comes out and Dom promised to buy it for her since he refused to go see it with her in the theater. He is all into it! It's hilarious becuase he's trying to make it something special for her. He is so adorable with her, I love it!

The Little Things

So yesterday Desi called me. I love that little girl. It's only the second time I've gotten to talk to her since she went up to Utah. She used to get so sidetracked when she was on the phone, and now she doesn't stop talking! After I got off the phone with her, I called Dom to tell him that I got to talk to the little one. He was incredibly jealous. When he got home last night he told me it wasn't fair that she calls me and not him, but it's not my fault. He misses her like crazy. She's going to come spend the weekend with us in 3 weeks and Dom can't wait.

So...I married a vampire...

Dom has always liked the dark...he hates having lights on and he's always wanted to have our room super dark. I think that it's because he spends all day outside in the bright sun. I like light and I like to have them on. Ever since we got our house, Dom has wanted to get blackout curtains for our room so it would be nice and dark. I've been wanting to get blinds for our sliding door just because there was nothing there. A few weeks ago, Dom started talking about how he wanted to get blinds and curtains soon before it started getting to hot. I started looking for curtains and found some really pretty chocolate brown ones that are supposed to help keep the heat out as well. Since we are in AZ and it's crazy hot, I figured that would be good. We also went and got blinds for our sliding door. We were looking at all the different blinds at Home Depot and they were all room darkening ones. Dom was so excited! We got home and I installed the blinds, not the easiest thing to do, but it got done. Then last weekend I went and got a curtain rod so that we could put up the curtains in our room. My house is now super dark! Dom is so happy about it. It is nice that Dom actually sleeps in on the weekends now, but still. I'll walk out of the office during the middle of the day and it's still pretty dark in the house. Dom now wants to replace all the vertical blinds that were already up with room darkening ones...I'd rather put in wood blinds, but Dom will probably win. I've always teased Dom that he was a vampire, but now I'm even more convinced about it!

It's gettin hot in here...

Summer is upon us in AZ. It's starting to get HOT! I hate the summer, I don't do well with heat. At least this summer I'm not going to be looking at houses that are blistering hot...so that's nice! Dom has started complaining about it being hot in the house, we haven't had the AC on in a long time and it was set a little high, we've just been turning the fans on to cool the rooms down. I ordered some blackout curtains for our room that are supposed to help keep the heat out, we'll see if they work. I'm very excited about getting them because then maybe I'll be able to figure out how to decorate my room. Now I just need to convince Dom to let me change the door knobs and handles on the kitchen cupboards! Dom and I just had our 6 year wedding anniversary. I can't believe we've been married for 6 years, it seems like it was just yesterday. He spoiled me, of course, and bought me a treadmill. I've been wanting one for a while. We used to walk when he got home from work, but then we ended up not eating until about 8:30 or 9, which isn't good. Plus with it getting hot, it makes me not want to be outside to walk. So now I walk when I'm done with work and then I make dinner. It's rather nice! I got Dom a Nintendo DS and a couple of games, and I'm trading his xbox in for a new one since his is broken. He has a bunch of games that he hasn't been able to play and he's looking forward to playing them. Dom is taking some time off the week of my birthday, and we need a vacation, so I'm trying to figure out where we are going to go. No clue yet, but I'm sure that I'll soon figure it out!

Decisions

So I was thinking about it this weekend and I just don't know how much more stress that infertility brings I can take. We are taking a 3 month break, and then we are going to try 3 more times. I can't bring myself to keep trying if after 6 procedures nothing has happened. Once we hit our 6th procedure, our chances of getting pregnant never increase anyways. So if we aren't pregnant by August, we're going to move onto something else, I just don't know what yet. Hopefully we won't have to move onto anything else, but who knows what will happen.

Once again, not pregnant. I haven't cried yet, but I doubt I will. I was expecting it because really, what else would the result be? We're taking a 3 month break from treatment because we are traveling at Christmas and I don't want to be in my 3rd trimester. So yea, kinda just numb right now and feeling down about the whole thing.
