Ages of LOs: 5 (DS)

Cycle/Month:  4 and 4

TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far:

GTKY: Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately.

DS this morning pointed to the side of his closet that has button down shirts, and said those were his date shirts.   I gave him a weird look, and he went on to say "You know, mom.  A date.  When you have to impress a girl and get them to be your wife."

It is Wednesday, right? I think so....

Ages of LOs: 19months

Cycle/Month: 5/6-7

 TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far:  We're hitting "terrible 2s" and I have to wonder if I really want to do this again... But then she has her cute moments...

GTKY:   Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately. She's still pretty young, so she isn't completely there yet with sentences. Her new favorite phrase, though, is "I got you!" and she will just randomly start yelling it and cackling. Also, she is learning to tell us when she has to go potty. Silly mommy didn't realize she was at this point yet, so when she said "potty' yesterday, I took her up to the bathroom and took her diaper off, but wasn't quick enough to get her on the potty. So, she pee'd on the floor.

Ages of LOs: DS will be 4 on the 14th.

Cycle/Month:1/1

TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far: I am concerned about the age gap. I know it won't matter much when they are older, but I am afraid they will be so different growing up, now. I was hoping for 2 to 3 years apart not 5, but that's life.

GTKY: Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately. DS likes to "read" Brown Bear by Eric Carl. He really just knows it by heart. Tje funny and cute part is how he says brown bear. It comes out Blown bear. He got a castle with lights and sounds for Christmas and it says "protect the bridge". DS says, "protect the blidge". So cute.

ETA...23 to 2 to 3. I am not having a baby at 48! LOL

It is Wednesday, right?

Ages of LOs: DD is 4.5 and DS is 2.5

Cycle/Month: 5/5

 TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far: It took us well over a year with DD and 6 months with DS so I am not totally stressed out yet

GTKY:   Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately.  DS has been a slow talker to the point that we were actually starting the process of a hearing and speech eval and then all of a sudden, he just started saying words and phrases and now sentences. He is ALL boy, very destructive and just sort of bull in a china shopish...anyway, when he falls down now as he is getting up he will say "I OKAY, I OKAY"  it makes me giggle every time!

Ages of LOs:  2 (DS)

Cycle/Month:  2/2

 TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far:  I am sick which has really put a damper on sex EOD this cycle. 

GTKY:   Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately. 

About a month ago when we were on vacation.  I told DS that it was time to go to the pool.  He was sitting on the bed with the string from his sun hat up his nose.  He looked at me and said "No mommy I picking nose."

Ages of LOs: DS is turning 1 this month!

Cycle/Month: 1/1

 TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far: I am existing on a few hours of sleep today and off to the doctor to see what is up with DS.  Me thinks we have an ear infection

GTKY:   Tell me a funny your kiddo has done lately : Since DS isn't talking yet, he is such a ham otherwise.  When we have people over he is totally showing off and then when we laugh, he does this fact forced laugh which is so adorable!

Trying for a sibling. I think that fits better than "Trying for a second' because not everyone here is trying for # 2, some are trying for # 3+

Happy New Year Ladies! 

Ages of LOs: DD is 2 1/2

Cycle/Month: 1 (CD25/8DPO)

 TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far: I just wrote DDs daycare check and wonder how in the hell we'll afford to pay for two in DC. Aaaahhhhhh!

GTKY:   Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately. Lately is she is doing something or playing with one of her toys she says "That is terrible." It cracks me up that she uses the word terrible. Or we were in the bathroom at Target and she yells "It smells like poop." haha

ETA #2:  I forget all kids aren't as old as mine.  If you kiddo isn't talking, tell something funny they have done or do.

Ages of LOs: 23 months

Cycle/Month: 3/5

TFAS: 2

Thoughts/Concerns so far: None really...just want to get AF already so I can officially move on to cycle 4!

GTKY: Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately.
DD is now at the age where she is curious about private parts...so we told her the real names, not made up ones. Which is fine and dandy, but now she likes to yell "penis!" at the most inopportune times...

Ages of LOs: DS is 2.

Cycle/Month: 4/5 (CD28/9DPO)

 TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far: I thought it would have happened by now, honestly. KU on cycle 1 with DS. Doesn't help that more people inadvertently found out we are TTC.

GTKY:   Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately. Well, DS curses like a sailor. Thanks, Dad. It's not funny.

ETA #2:  I forget all kids aren't as old as mine.  If you kiddo isn't talking, tell something funny they have done or do.

It is Wednesday, right?

Ages of LOs: DS is 14 months

Cycle/Month: first cycle trying

TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far: I am really nervous that my cycle is all messed up from having B... Nervous that this might be a long journey for us.

GTKY: B is just starting toward a few words, his newest are 'mine' and 'what' so he runs around alternating between the two. I obviously think everything e says is super cute and hilarious!

GTKY:   Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately.  My daughter doesn't say much yet - just Dada, but she is hilarious when she is play peek-a-boo behind our ottoman.  She gets so excited when I pop up.

It is Wednesday, right? Sadly.

Ages of LOs: DS is 4 1/2 

Cycle/Month: 7/7, but 2/2 after loss at 16 weeks in October 

TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far: I just worry that it's going to take a long time to get KU this time around.  We were so lucky with DS getting pg on cycle 2 and with our last pg getting pg on cycle 1 and losing the baby.  I feel like we used up all of our getting KU quickly luck.  We'll see.

GTKY: Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately. Unfortunately, my DS went running through the house the other day saying, "Mommy!  I have to change my pants.  I sharted!!!!"  I couldn't help but laugh so hard I had tears streaming down my face!

Ages of LOs: 8 months

Cycle/Month: 4/7?  (Started TTC again at 7 weeks PP.)

 TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far:  I am very frustrated.  These 34-day, 80-day, then 50-day cycles are making it really difficult and frustrating.  Some women get 2-3 chances at getting pregnant for every 1 chance I get. IRG!

GTKY:   Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately.  Not talking yet, but he's pretty darn cute as he's learning to stand up.  He has yet to master the art of learning to sit down.

Ages of LOs: DS is 20 months

Cycle/Month: 1/1

 TFAS: Thoughts/Concerns so far: I charted for 4 cycles before TTC 2 of which showed no ovulation. I got dashed CH this month and a temp shift so I am hopeful. No testing plans until mid-late next week if AF doesnt show.

GTKY:   Tell me a funny your kiddo has said lately: he thinks everything is "awesome!"  and is not afraid to let the entire grocery store know it
