I have to organize all my pics of Lucas and get them printed. I have a stupid shutterfly gc that expires on sunday - youd think this would be motivation.
Today I'm running to old navy to see if they have maternity capris or something better than the jeans that I have and hate.
No real plans just some errands to run and some returns to make. Hope the weather is nice so we can take Lucas to the park
Mommy's little helper
As it turns out, I'm starting meds tomorrow for our next IUI cycle! I'm so excited that we're able to fit one in before we go on vacation in 17 days. (even more excited that I had a 29 day natural cycle for the first time ever!)
Other than that, I have a wedding shower for a good friend on Sunday. We met on the first day of kindergarten, in September 1984. It's kind of crazy to think about that!
