Been so long

I know it has been so long. I only have excuses for it, and hey to me they are great! Well to start, Jacob lost his second front tooth. So now he is front toothless. So cute. His birthday party is coming up and he is so excited about it.
I have finally started my Christmas shopping. Why I wait so long is beyond me. I could have had this done at the beginning of the year for heaven sakes. I have Mark pretty much done. Memory's is in the process, ha Mem don't you want to know? Mark is making Evan's. I think my goal for next year is to get my Christmas shopping done by June or July! It is completely nuts out there!
For all those who don't know, I got a new doctor, an obgyn. He is so nice. Here I was expecting this little Asian guy because his name is Anton. For some reason it stuck in my mind of Memory's neighbor boy Anton. Such a cutie too. Boy was I wrong. I of course had to ask my nurse if he was nice and her response was "well I have known him since before my kids were born and he delivered all my kids and my youngest is your age." Wow that was helpful. So he put me on Prometrium to force my "little friend". Not that they guys reading this really want to hear that but to darn bad. After I start my "little friend" I get to start Clomid. Now I got these prescriptions filled the day before Thanksgiving. Total mistake. It was a 4 hour wait. So of course they were just so busy I didn't want to waste the Pharmacists time explaining anything to me so figured I would just go home and read the little pamphlet they put in there. Mark of course laughed at me because I do this with any medication I take because I want to know what to expect or what can happen that is really bad. So I read it, no big deal. Basically can have pain in the abdomen, dizziness, throwing up and change of eye sight. No big deal right! WRONG! Just like the provera I took last time I had to force my "little friend" I am horribly sick, I have horrible cramps (nothing I am not us to) and I am oh so dizzy. Since starting this, I have cut myself because I got so dizzy while I was standing in the kitchen cutting something up. I have run into to many walls to count and at the moment am sporting a very nice lump on my head, and darn near fell down the stairs going to the basement. So stairs, and knives or anything sharp is totally out of the question for me to use along with driving a car. The other day it was messing with my eye sight so badly that I had to wear Mark's glasses to see anything. Now if you all know my husband he has HORRIBLE eye sight. So for me to see clearly out of his glasses is pretty bad since I have perfect vision. So after all of this I have 4 months to get pregnant or my non Asian ob Dr. will be sending me to a more specialized specialist. So cross your fingers, toes and eyes. maybe put your hair in some braids, that might help to, because that is a lot of crossing.
Last week in the Target add was a Electric Roaster for 23 dollars. Great deal so I decided to get it. Best choice I ever made. I cooked my turkey yesterday for our little get together and not only was the bird so good and juicy, but it doesn't take as long to cook as it does in the oven. I think the from start to finish which includes warm up was 2 1/2 hours for a 15 pound turkey. So next year my dear family I am so doing the turkey!
