TulipGarden---Not to laugh at you because Lord knows I do know what you are talking about as there are 7 of us also. But that was comical. Sounds exactly like a trip for us and your thoughts are exactly like mine. I always look at DH and say,"And we spent how much for TR?" LOL BTW--We had season passes to Busch Gardens last year so there were a lot of those trips.LOL

Niecie! A congrats is in order for you as well! YAY!
Six Flags was fun, fun, fun! We went down the night before, stayed the night. We pushed two double beds together to sleep seven people. HAHAHA! We got there at 10am and didnt leave until 9pm. We got home at 1:51 AM. All I could think is we better just be patient as we can with the kids we have cause when we throw a baby in that mix it will be a huge mess.
We tried to leave. But kid #1 has car sickness and we couldnt find her dramamine. Pulled over at gas station 1 and got gas, but the inside is closed so no dramamine. But most of them have to pee also. So on to the next station 2, still no dramamine but now kid #2 feels sick to his tummy also. Ok good, we can knock it out with dramamine, but we have to find it first. Station 2, everyone (but one) got out to pee, but it only has one stall. They had to take turns, including me. On to station 3, no dramamine. Ok, station 4...still no dramamine. In the mean time the tummy aches are getting worse. We were in a city we didnt know well, finally we spot CVS. YAY, except one cant swallow pills and the other can. So I get chewable but apparantly the chewable kind is really nasty tasting. So after the trying time of getting the medication down, and only after I chewed half of one to prove that it is edible...we were off. They didnt eat dinner, they had a late lunch. But while going from gas station to station children number 3,4, and 5 are complaining they were hungry (the ones who didnt have an achey tummy). I said queasy tummy's take precedence. Dramamine first, then dinner. Ok, off to go eat. And the only thing is really McDonalds. And suddenly the queasy tummies feel much better. One is alseep and I finally get her awake but she says she isnt hungry. Fine. Then the order for six people through a drive through with the window on the van not rolling down (some mechanism is broken). Then doling out the food, someone was missing a meal, got out went and took care of that. We are on our way. YAY! But child #5 finally wakes up and says she has to pee really bad. This is the seventeen year old (it never ends). Pull over to let her go. Then I gave up half my happy meal since she said she wasnt hungry when we were at MCDonalds. By this time I took over everything cause DH was about to jump off a bridge, he stopped smoking 3 days ago. HAHAHA! He was chewing the heck out of that nicotine gum. I drove home. All the children fell asleep. We arrived at 1:50am. Child #5 had to work at 9am and child #1 had to help run a car wash for cheer. DH got up and did that. I slept in.

T/R 06-08-09 L: 5 cm R 6.5 When did anyone who suspected they were pg go to the doc..before period was missed or right after. I am pretty sure I am pg but I know an at home test would not verify yet but a blood test would..I am very bad at waiting. : )

Hey Cindy. AF has NOT shown for me yet...she is just taunting me still Hope you have a great time at Six Flags. DH and 3 of our 5 are going to beautiful North Carolina tomorrow. My DSS (13) is a juvenile diabetic and once every three months we have to travel to Duke University for his check-ups...right in CHTRC's back door It's about a 4 1/2 hour drive for us so we will drive down in the morning and then after our appointment we are going either towards the coast or over to Charlotte for the night with the kids and do something.
Hope everyone else is doing well and much Baby Dust to all!

Hi Tonia, glad AF finally showed up for you so you can try again this next month. My AF has been pretty friendly to me since TR, some cramping but over all it seems better. Which I didnt expect.
I havent heard from Maria, but I was thinking the same and wondering how she is and hoping all is ok with her.
We are leaving this afternoon for Six Flags over Texas. We are staying the night tonight and going to the park in the morning, driving back tomorrow night. We have almost all the kids with us, five of them. DD 17, DS 14, DSD 14, DSS 9, and DD almost 9. The good part is they are old enough to pretty much pack themselves and keep up with it. At the park tomorrow the older ones will wanna go hang out most likely and so we will have the younger two. I cant wait to ride some roller coasters!!!

Hi Everyone! Cindy, Kinda glad AF finally showed for you but wish she hadnt for pg reasons! This is my first cycle since TR and I am late and getting aggravated because she won't come on and get it over with already. Today is CD34...I (and all of my family) feel her effects and just wish it would come and be done already! You have such a mix of kids! How many of them live with you full time? My DH tells everyone we have a joint venture! We have 5 together...2 DS for me (22 and 17), 2 DS for him (12 and 7) and my dear neice (14) who all live with us full time. It is never boring at our house. We are hoping if we are successful with TTC that we will have a girl but will be very content with a boy too!
Has anyone heard any updates from Maria while she is away? Praying everything is going good for her.
Best of luck and lots of Baby Dust to those trying this month!
