Jack was conceived 5 years ago today!

Hmm, maybe that is too much information :). I know the exact date because we were using the Clearblue Easy Fertility Monitor and it told us the day I ovulated and so we, well, uh you know. The first month we used it we got pregnant with Jack. Then next time we used I got pregnant the first month again -- with Victor.

We have been "trying" the old fashioned way since early last Fall to have a third baby (Brian wants that girl) without any luck. I didn't use the monitor because I wasn't exactly ready to have a baby, if it happened it happened. I recently decided I am not getting any younger and it would be nice to have a third baby (another boy) so we are going to really try. I got the monitor and this is the first month we are using it.

I am not going to get my hopes up that it will happen the first month because I am 40 now and because I only have one fallopian tube because of the unresolved ectopic pregnancy I had, but I am kind of excited. I can't help it.

When we first started talking about kids, I wanted four and Brian was adamant about only having two. Well after we had two boys, Brian decided that maybe three would be good and I was happy with two boys. Now my baby isn't a baby anymore and my friends have newborns and I do want another baby :).

If we are blessed with a third child it really doesn't matter if it is a boy or a girl.
