It really wasn't anything romantic. He got down on one knee next to me and didn't say a word, just showed me the ring. I started laughing, asking if he was serious, then told him "aren't you supposed to ask me something?" He said some cute things that I don't remember but our friends do, then asked if I would marry him.

Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) Nothing really. Some house projects, and I'm so ready for summer. Still working on losing some more weight.
QOTW: Share your engagement story (or when you knew your SO was the one!). We dated for over 5 years before getting engaged. No cute story at all. We actually started planning the wedding before there was a ring on my finger.
FET - transferred two embryos (boy and girl) - Nov 2014 - BFP!
Any testing coming up? AMH, TSH, SIS
Anything good or bad happening? (TTC wise or just in life..) H has started interviewing for a couple of internship opportunities. Should have something set for the summer by the end of next week. So close! I have also made the written request to reduce my schedule here at work starting in September. Still waiting for official approval, but everyone so far has given their verbal blessing.
QOTW: H and I were on a trip to California to celebrate his birthday. We had driven a couple hours from LA to La Jolla and arrived at our hotel about an hour before sunset. My H is usually very pushy about me getting ready quickly to move onto whatever is planned, and boy was he that night. I didn't think much of it though because he is ALWAYS like that. Stresses me out! We walked down to the shore, made fun of some people making out on a rock, watched some seals playing... Then, he grabbed my hand and said, "Well ..., I've got something for you." I froze and slowly turned around to see him on one knee. As with brij, he said a bunch of sweet things that I immediately forgot, and then asked me to marry him. I had no idea, and although we had spoke about getting married one day, there wasn't any set plans.

@honeybee973 - that's awesome! I fell in love with their clothes and couldn't resist signing up and sharing the love. I've gained weight over the years due to stress/anxiety/IF and I actually feel pretty again. Yet still very comfortable, so it's a win-win!
I'm wearing a Nicole dress today! I love the bicycle pattern.. hoping to find one of those soon!
@futuremrswright2012 - yes! It's in home and online clothing sales. Most comfortable, cutest clothes I've found in a LONG time. They have shirts, skirts, leggings, dresses, kids clothing.. Super awesome.
I am planning to do in home parties along with weekly sales in my Facebook group. Once I get that up and running (when I'm closer to having inventory) I can add y'all if you want
