October 5, 1999

I can't believe it's October already. It has now been one year since Jason and I first brought up having a baby. I have to share with you one of the cutest things Jason has ever said. Last Christmas he went to see his family, when he returned he was going on and on about his one year old cousin, Claire. He paused and looked at me and said "You know what? I can't wait to have a baby." I think I fell in love with him all over again just hearing those words. :)

I'm on CD39 today. I haven't been charting my temps as my sleeping schedule is pretty wonky lately. I've been keeping an eye on my CM though. So far, no EWCM has shown up so I don't think I've ovulated. If this cycle is anything like the last one I don't have high hopes of seeing "O" anytime soon. I can't wait for AF to arrive so that I can start a new cycle charting my temps. I'm sure my GYN will want to see a couple months of my charting patterns.

Have you ever noticed that once you have decided to TTC that you seem to see a lot more pregnant women around? I swear, I must see at least three every time I go shopping. Walking around the store with one hand on their big, beautiful, round tummies. I can't wait.

Halloween is just around the corner and I can't wait. This is the first year that Jason and I have lived in a house during this time of the year. We can carve pumpkins and hand out candy! Yah!

Well I hope this diary entry greets all of you in good health and happiness. Until next week.
