our weekend

I cannot believe tomorrow will be February! 2010 is off to a great start :) This weekend has been great...Friday I slept in a little while which was amazing and then I was trying to be productive for the afternoon...got my haircut, picked up a few things at Walgreens, cleaned up, did my workout and then Kathryn got here that night. We just stayed in and hung out since it was pouring outside. Saturday we went to Lisa's wedding. It was really nice. The wedding was at the Navy Base and the reception was at Apple Annies in Seville Quarter.
My husband is so handsome ♥

my best friend

After the reception we came home and then Kathryn, Kelly, and I went downtown for a bit. I ran into my brother and his girlfriend. Lacey and I were rockin some pretty sweet dance moves :) I had a goodtime.

Now it is Sunday and I'm not sure what the rest of the day has lined up for us, but I am off, Drake is off...so that makes it an amazing day! xoxo

TGIF!

Yay it's the weekend! I am actually off today because I will be at an event Sunday for work. Last night I went up to watch my girls play soccer. I miss coaching and being around them. I was able to hang out in the stands with several of my players from last year :) They make me feel so loved and appreciated telling me how much they miss me and wish I was still up at the high school with them.


After the game Drake and I went to Waffle House with Alex and Kevin. It has been a while so we were having a great time catching up. Well I am off to clean and then I have a haircut at 1:30, just a trim, and then Kathryn will be here tonight :) Looking forward to a great weekend!

good way to start the day

Well of course after I mention not knowing if I ovulate or not on my post last night, I get my answer. I took my ovulation test this morning and it said I was ovulating! Yay! If I got this excited over a positive ovulation test, I can't imagine one day when I get my positive pregnancy test! At least now we can rule that out as being an issue.

Here is a very blurry picture taken by my phone...the line on the left has to be the same color or darker for it to be a positive. The past several days it has barely been there and now this is todays. Anyways...just wanted to share that real quick. xoxo

not too shabby for a Monday

I am home from work and already ate since Drake had dinner made :) I am letting it settle and then we are doing day 6 of our Insanity workout. It's going good. Even though it's Monday I am in such a good mood because Drake is home! He worked all overnights this weekend so I didn't see him. I made a late night Target run last night while he was at work for some dishwashing soap and left with a shirt and these heels in addition ha!

Not too much out of the ordinary going on this week, just ready for the weekend, Kathryn will be here again! Lisa is getting married this weekend so she is coming into town for that.
In baby Wade news...I have been using my ovulation testers this month and so far I have not ovulated. I am curious to see when I do. If I don't by the end of the week then I will start to get worried, maybe that would be our answer to the problem if I am not ovulating at all? Time will tell. Well, I am off. Gonna go hang out with my hubby ♥

flawz

Some of my flaws....

-I will have an anxiety attack if I see throw up

-I am quick to look at the negative side of things

-I bite the skin around my fingernails

-I have a weird hairline

-I twist my hair

-I am messy

-I care too much what people think about me

I'm sure I could go on and on but it's ok because Drake Wade still loves me! :) I am so lucky ♥

Muscle Aches and McGuires

Hooray for Thursday...it's almost the weekend! Today was a busy but great day. I was crazy at work so it made my day go by really fast and then I came home and Drake and I did day 2 of the Insanity video workout. I love it! I think everyone has a type of workout that fits them and this was mine. It kicks your butt! I am excited that Drake likes it because that will help so much with him doing it with me. This is Drake taking a picture of me before our workout. ha :) This is the Kathryn Gully stance haha

After our workout it was time to get ready to go eat at McGuires Irish Pub. We were celebrating Ronnie's 30th birthday. It's so weird to celebrate a 30th birthday, I feel like yesterday I was going to my friend's sweet 16 parties?! We had a good time :) I feel so blessed to have the friends that I do!

Well, now it is time to get ready for bed...goodnight xoxo

Ahh it's monday and i'm in my pjs :)

I am loving my 3 day weekend! Not much to report from the weekend, it was rainy and gloomy outside the past couple days ugh Of course today is gorgeous and Drake is back at work :( I am just trying to catch up on some laundry and plan on going running later. We went grocery shopping last night and then Jenn and Ronnie came over. Drake and I also went and played some baseketball together. We had fun! As I am typing this I am sweating like a mad man...I am back on my clomid, today is the last day for this cycle and that is the symtom I have really had, the heat flashes.

I am so eager to get back to doing what we need to do for a baby. Kathryn said that she felt like I would get pregnant in January, so we will see if her gut feeling is right. Oh, Drake said that he had a dream the other night that I had triplets but he said that the 3rd baby came out as big as a 9 month old and was sitting up and was wearing glasses! :) haha I thought that was really funny. Anyways, I am off...Happy Monday!

Girl Friends

Today was a really good day. Work started at Panera Bread for a surprise party for my supervisor. Then during my lunch break, my co-worker Mandy and I went to get our nails done. She is also trying for a baby so we had a nice time relaxing and talking...even if just for an hour. Then after work it was time for my dinner date with Allie and Jessica :) It was so nice to see them and catch up on things, it has been a while with all of our schedules being so different. It was also nice to get out of the house on a night that Drake was working. After dinner we went over to Petsmart for a bit and then went our seperate ways. I love you girls! :)

After that I decided to be a nice wifey and drop off my leftovers to Drake at work...while I was up there I finally got to go on a tour of the jail! I always mention it because I want to see where Drake works and the things he talks about. It was very interesting...I'm glad I got to see it. It was so cute to see Drake in his uniform and in his element :) He was being so protective of me being in there. I even got to work the switchboard and open and close cell doors that inmates were not in. ha I am easily amused.
Oh and if you missed American Idol last night, I need to make sure you are up to speed... :)

Alright, I am off to bed...tomorrow is Friday and then a 3 day weekend ahead!! So excited :) Good Night.

Update

Well, bad news again. Another negative in the baby department this month. I even had myself prepared knowing that we were not technically "trying" this month so to not expect anything and just be ready to start tracking everything again after this. Well, I thought I was totally cool with that plan, but apparently I was not. It hurt just as bad as every other time. I feel like I am in a scene from groundhog day or something, living the same day every month. I think the added pms had a little something to do with my emotions. Who knows...today is a better day. I am more determined than ever now though, I think the month off was a good thing. I have a month supply of ovulation testers ready to go. Oh and of course another perfect scenario if I were to get pregnent this month...I would find out around Feb. 12th or 13th so I could share the news with Drake on Valentines Day! That would be awesome :) Well I am off...Drake is working tonight and tomorrow night :( But tomorrow I have dinner plans with a couple friends, which will be much needed.

Back to Work

Well the start of another week...ready or not! Drake and I just went and did sprints up and down our street and as we were, some neighbors decide to grill out some hamburgers so we could smell them the whole time we were running! Irony :)
Not sure what we will do the rest of the night. Maybe just make dinner and hang out...last night for dinner we needed something quick and did one of the Macaroni Grill boxed meals, and it was really good! We got the creamy basil yummm

Well, just in case I don't get to write tomorrow...Happy anniversary to my mom and dad! :) They have been married for 31 years and together for 36! They have shown me how a marriage should be, and I am so thankful for that. I love you both so much!

Saturday Shopping

Well after we went to my parents to see Kylie this morning we headed up to the mall and just got home! It was a successful trip...lots of sales. Drake got a few shirts and I got a couple tops, some workout clothes and these amazing boots from journeys :)

I think the rest of the night we are just going to cuddle up and watch a movie. It is so cold outside...I know I am a wimp. Some of you are in the negatives and snowed in lately, but for me living in Florida my whole life, being in the teens with strong winds is brrrrrrrr!

If you are looking for a movie to rent this weekend, these are two recommendations that are out on video right now...



Two totally different movies, but I enjoyed them both. Well, I am off...I hope you are having a great weekend! xoxo

Friday+Friends=Fun

Hooray for the weekend! Yesterday after work drake went to help Jenn out and be a judge at the weightlifting meet up at the high school haha it was pretty funny to watch him. He was judging and everyone was doing bench and cleans...so I was able to get my workout in on one of the ellipticals while watching the meet. I also got to see some of my old students and players up there which was really nice!
After that we went to eat dinner with Jenn and Ronnie and had a really good time. Jenn's parents watched Vivian so that we could be out and about. After dinner we went off to Barnes and Nobles for a while and finished up the night at their house watching some old mystery science theater 3000.
I am so excited it is the weekend! And the Monday after next it is already time for another holiday :) Well, sorry no pictures, I have to go get more batteries for my camera. Kylie is headed back to her moms today, so we are about to go give her a big hug bye :(

short and sweet

-Well since my last post Drake and I went to the Pensacola Flyers Hockey game and had a great time. There were a few fights so that is always entertaining :)


-Tonight is supposed to be in the teens again! Yes, in Florida...I even heard the words "possible snow" out of the weatherman's mouth this week. ha!

-Tonight is the start of a new season of The Biggest Loser, I'm sure if I watch this one I am hooked for the season...sucker.

-Kylie is actually staying through this weekend, so a couple more days of my sweet niece :)

-I am so excited for the Championship Game Thursday Night! Roll Tide

-And finally a Baby update: I should be able to test...well I don't even know the exact day, around the 15th I think. Can you believe that?! I decided this month to put away the thermometer, my charts, and to not track anything. Just for one month. Don't worry I still want this more than anything! But after just getting mad with everything last month, I thought it would be good for us to just take a month off of all of the stress. So according to everyone, if it happens when you are not trying, maybe it will happen for us this month. If not then we can come back next month refreshed and ready to continue this journey.

I hope everyone has a great week! 3 more days until the weekend xoxo

Looking Thin in Twenty Ten

Ha! That is the slogan around the house these days :) I know we are so original with trying to get in better shape with the new year, but it is a nice fresh start to where we hope to get. I am back to drinking all water and I am jump starting my hopes of looking better with the good 'ol Special K diet. Reason #1-I did it in college and lost a few pounds and Reason #2-Two weeks is nothing.

Overall our year is off to a good start! Matt, Kathryn and Bayleigh are here again driving back through on their way home to Texas, so we have enjoyed getting to hang out with them! Kylie is in town for a few more days, so I am seeing her every chance I get. :) Here are some pics from the last few days...

Our Baby :)

This picture cracks me up! :)

Drake playing with Bayleigh...he will be such a good daddy

Happy to be hanging out with Aunt Racey haha

On our way out to dinner with everyone

Kylie ♥
