Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens...

Not exactly sure why, but I wanted that to be the title of this post. The song has been stuck in my head most of the morning. I guess I have an earworm! Anyway, I hope everyone had an enjoyable Christmas and a Happy New Year! I thoroughly enjoyed my 2 weeks off from work but would have enjoyed them much, much more if Josh had been off as well. I did enjoy the days that he did have off though. Maybe one day, our dream of owning our own business and working together will come true! There's always hope, right??

Well, I just wanted to give an update on the "baby" front. This month we will do our first round of Clomid with an IUI...I'm ecstatic! I can't wait. I have never wished for Aunt Flo to visit until now! HA! If my timing is right, I will start the clomid later on this week and then the IUI will take place around the 20th of this month. Ahh! I am praying that it will work the first time, but I know there's a bigger chance of it not. That's ok though. I have given this to God and I know it's all in his hands above all. Just because we go through these treatments does not guarantee a positive outcome. Glad I finally have my head on straight :)

On another note, I heart cooking soo incredibly much and I have The Pioneer Woman to thank! I can't tell you how many recipes of hers I have made in the last week...I'm even making her Chicken Parmigiana recipe tonight! I know that Josh is super excited about this because he never gets Italian...I personally am not a fan, but her recipe doesn't seen too terribly Italiany ;) If you have not been introduced to Ree, check out www.thepioneerwoman.com. She's awesome! Josh ordered her cookbook for me last week and I should, hopefully have it this afternoon! Yea!

Another site I am loving is the Fly Lady...if you are needing to get your house in order and get yourself on a good schedule, check her out as well HERE. I'm kind of cheating though...I'm not going through the baby steps like I should, I'm just going full force into my first zone and the morning and evening routines. I'm so not a rule follower...what a rebel, right?? Ha! I will be sure to keep you updated on my progress...today is my first day of my first zone...the kitchen.

Well, I guess that's it for now. I will try my best to remember to take pics of the meals I'm trying out so that you can view something in the next post instead of just reading my ramblings :)
