Hi! I'm Caitlin, wife of James and mama of Maxwell. I am a proud USCG wife, former ballerina, photographer, and retail manager. Being a working mom isn't easy, and this blog gets {seriously} neglected now and then {most of the time}, but I keep up with it when I can.

Purely amazing.



I'm fairly sure that I don't want a water birth, I might want to labor in the tub, but not actually give birth in it.  But this is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.


Not preggo.

I'm only posting this because I forgot to inform some people that I wasn't preggo and some people still thought I might be.  LOL.  Oops.  Also, FYI for anyone TTC, the 2 weeks BEFORE you ovulate are SO much easier to get through.  This time flys by!  It's the two weeks after that are terrible!  Can't drink, can't take hot baths, cant do any of the stuff that might harm a baby, even when there's not one in there!  This is why TTC would be SO much less stressful if you could just know right away if it worked!  Someone needs to work on a remedy to that problem!

I better be pregnant

Because if I'm not, I must be getting sick or something.  I have serious body aches, sore boobs, bloated tummy, and I'm not really nauseous but I feel like I'm on the verge of being nauseous any second if that makes any sense.

I'm only 9DPO, so my period's not due for another week.  So I'm pretty sure that this is not PMS symptoms.

Positive OPK


Got one yesterday and one today.  That means "O" day should be today or tomorrow.  I've been a lot more relaxed this cycle.  I haven't been counting the days and I also decided not to chart temps.  It's too much of a pain in the ass and I feel like I have a pretty good idea of when I'm ovulating, so I decided to take a break from it.  If we're not preggo within the next few months, I'll go back to it, but for now I don't feel like I need to do it.
