Manic Monday

It has been a while I know.  I  have goon on 2 trips back to back within the last 3 weeks, and working working working.  Between Premier, and Hancock, I am staying very busy.  I am excited because my Premier Designs business is picking back up again since I had to take a break from in while I was on bed rest a couple of months ago.  So I am having tons of fun with it.  I just need a few more shows booked for August.  If ya'll know anyone who likes free jewelry, and might like to have a girl's night by having a jewelry party, just let me know!  The new fall/winter collection is beautiful!  

Tomorrow I see the doctor for the first time since I found out that I had an ectopic pregnancy.  She will be doing a regular pap, and talking about and scheduling the little procedure/test that I will have to have done in a few weeks.  Pretty much, from what I understand so far, she will put some dye in my tubes and do an ultrasound, or something of the sort, to see if I still have anything in my tubes, and to make sure I passed everything.  If she sees nothing, then she will then give us the green light to start trying!!!  I am also having normal menstral cycles, so that just puts me that much closer!  I have faith that everything will be fine.  The doctor seems to feel the same.  She said because we caught this so quickly, my tubes should be saved, along with my fertility.  I just have to stay on my knees, and pray hard that this does not happen again.  I am very well aware of the fact that it is very possible once you have one ectopic pregnancy, but I am also very well aware that God is in control, and knows the desires of my heart.  

Well, thats just a quick little update.  I need to get ready for work.  I will post tomorrow on how the doctor appointment goes.  I will also try to post some pictures from the trips.  

Back from the beach!

Well yesterday we made it back from a week of relaxing at the beach.  The weather and the ocean were perfect!  I hated to leave.  We came back around noon yesterday, and headed for Danielle's baby shower for 2:00.  She got lots of wonderful things for Jonah.  I work today from 10-5:30, and tomorrow I have a training class from 8-12.  I will then, take me a nap and go see Harry Potter at midnight!  Ashlie, are we still going together?  I can't wait to see it.  Then, Wednesday morning I am leaving for the Premier Designs National Rally in Dallas at 7am.  I will be back late Saturday night, I think.  So when I get back, I will have lots of pictures to post from the 2 trips and baby shower.  I hope everyone has a great week, and Amber, I hope Addison has a great 1st birthday!
