I feel like it's been a little too long since I've updated but of course first things first:

He is growing up so very fast.  Very close to crawling but not quite there yet just very very close.  He has also begun pulling himself up on the couch to the standing position and he loves it!  He will just start laughing and smiling and getting so very excited!

We are doing well.  I started a different regimine of essential oils for hormone balance and after just 28 days of using it things are definitely making a difference.  My cycle was 28 days long and my period for two cycles in a row as just 5 days.  For those o fyou who have followed my story from the beginning know this is unheard of for me.  Normally my periods last anywhere between 9-13 days.  The only time they have ever been only 5 days was during the cycles when I was doing fertility treatments.  I also ovulated 8 days earlier than I normally do and my luteal phase was ALMOST long enough for conception but not quite.  Longer than I've ever had it on my own at least.  So I bought 3 months worth of the oils and will continue every day to working toward getting myself at a place where I can conceive. 

Regardless of us getting pregnant again or not we would like to move forward with adoption or starting an adoption process within the next 2/3 years.  I feel really good and at peace with this and Isaac does as well.  I know during this time I have a lot to do.  I want to pay off as much debt as possible so we can be even more financially sound for fees and just overall bringing another child into our lives.  I want to put aside a nest egg as well so that we are able to still do fun things/vacation wise with a new little one(though we are not planning on adopting an infant.  Most likely the child will be older.  I want to do research on behavioral things that go along with adopting an older child and just all together I want to be as knowledgeable as possible. 

That being said this is my life.  I feel so blessed to watch my baby grow and still be able to get out of the house and work and enjoy my career.  I wouldn't have it any other way.
