A Step in the Right Direction

Each night we remember, the hubby and I take turns praying out loud before bed.  Lately, I've been praying for our future family and that God would prepare us to be good parents.  I've encouraged him to pray for that too, but he hadn't....until last night!  It was his turn and he prayed for our future family and for God to bless us with children when the time is right.  It really made my heart happy!  It was a reassurance that we are on the right track, in this together, and on the same page.

Today I made a TTC (trying to conceive) calendar.  I called my doctor today and asked the receptionist when to "try" for a baby.  She said every other day between day 8 and 18 of my cycle.  So, I made a calendar based on the fertility tracker on my phone.  I put a big X on day 1-5 (my "cycle" days) and then I put a big green smiley face every other day from days 8-18.  I actually put one on 20, too.  Just for good measure.  Then I put a big black star on the day my next cycle is supposed to start.  Or it could be the lucky day we find out we are pregnant.  We'll see, but at least I have made a plan.  Oh my desire to plan everything.  I showed it to my hubby tonight and he said "Cool."  That was about all he said.  I think he's on board though; my husband is a man of few words.

So we've made another step in the right direction.  The TTC calendar of beginning to TTC starts on July 30th!  30 more days!  I can't wait!
