La Famille Wilcox
Where does the family start? It starts with a young man falling in love with a girl - no superior alternative has yet been found.

Nope

Nope...definitely not pregnant. At first I thought I would actually be really sad. I had gotten used to the prospect and quite excited. After all I convinced Joe that if it were to be a girl we'd name her Ava Genevieve. Alas, our little Ava  or Aidan (Aidan Pierce is our boy name) will have to wait a while. 


That's okay because we got free tickets to go to Disneyland though Disney's give a day get a day program. It's really awesome! All we're doing is making 4 blankets or quilts for a charity in Portland and we get a free day at Disneyland! Since we're going to be in Cali for David's wedding, we figured we might as well go. The last time I went to Disneyland I was 3!!! Since there's a good chance we'll become east coasters in the next two years we might as well take advantage!


If I was pregnant I couldn't go on any rides! Just like when we went to Six Flags and I was 6 mos. pregnant, lame!


I also want to be able to enjoy Bella and give her all my time. She's going to really need me in the next few months with her surgeries and hospitalizations coming up.


I'm also going to go back to school this fall! Finally! I just need to decide which Master's program I want to aim for. Vocal Performance or Choral Conducting. We're going to start "trying" around the fall.  That will give me enough time to get the classes done that I need so I can do most of my Master's program online.  (Part of me secretly wants to be a french pastry diva!)


Or maybe we'll get so caught up in the romance of Paris and start "trying" while we're there the end of May. Who knows. When it's right it's right.


Anywho, I'm off to kick Joe's trash in some Super Mario Bros!!!!

To be or not to be...Pregnant that is!

So, I'm blogging about this because I'm a little freaked out! My period is 6 days late (I have a Mirena IUD) and I've been nauseaous for over a week. I've taken 4 pregnancy tests, 3 negatives and 1 really faint line. I called my OB she didn't seem too worried. I have an appt.on Feb 9th. I'm freaked out because everything I read about getting pregnant with an IUD was not good! Most of them resulted in miscarriage or having to induce befre term. Infections, IUD's implanting into the fetus' heart, brain or lungs. 


 I'm also freaked out because if I am pregnant, things didn't go according to my plans! Again! Those that know me well, know I like to plan these things!!! We were going to start trying for bambina/bambino #2 around Sep. or Oct. Maybe this is just a sign that we need to reconsider our plans If it turns out I'm just a paranoid basket case!  I'm going to wait until Monday and if I'm still late I'll pee on more sticks! We shall see!

This was right after Bella got home from the hospital. My sister sent her this balloon while we there. She loved playing "peek-a-boo" with it




So here is what you do:
1) go to the first folder in your pictures
2) Post the 10th pic in that folder
3) Tell the story behind it!
