Crazy Week

Last week I posted that Braxten was sick. I took him into the doctor and he was diagnosed with strep throat. I had the doctor check me also and sure enough, I had it too. Branden came home later complaining of a sore throat. Needless to say, we are all on antibiotics. Only 2 days left and I can't wait! We stayed home Tuesday and Wednesday so life was pretty boring. Branden ended up staying home all week. On Thursday, I returned to the doctor for a uterine cancer test. Not the funnest of tests, but I guess whatever is necessary. I get my results back in another week and a half. The doctor put me back on Metformin to help with my Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome(PCOS), not diabetes. I also got back on Provera to help me start my cycle. We decided to try Clomid again since my dosage was too low previously. We're going to try all this for three months and then reevaluate. Last time we tried it, I was only on Provera and Clomid, not Metformin. I'm finally at a state in my life that I think I can handle all of this emotionally and be okay with it no matter the outcome.

Enough about me though. The weekend was a typical just hang out and have fun weekend. Honestly, I couldn't really tell you what we did except Sunday. Friday I got Brax signed up for soccer after he got home from school. We also put new racks in our garage because Branden loves having organization. Although I do have to admit, they look really nice and I like the extra space. Saturday we mostly just relaxed and cleaned a little. Branden's cousin, Gayleen and her family were in town to visit her in-laws so they stopped by. The kids played Wii while I took the parents on a tour. It was fun to see them. Sunday was church and fun with the family. After church, my visiting teacher came over and we visited for a while. At 5:30 we went over to the neighbor's for a Valentine's Dinner. It was a lot of fun. We talked and ate. The kid's played and visited. We also ended the evening playing pinochle. We played boys vs. girls. Unfortunately the girls lost, but we are looking forward to a rematch sometime soon. Yesterday was President's Day so a day off for both Brax and Branden. We mostly just hung out together. Branden did go and do flags with the Young Men. Today I got Brax signed up for t-ball and luckily the soccer and t-ball seasons don't conflict except maybe practices. He is looking forward to playing both. We are also going to attempt piano lessons. I guess we'll see how it goes. We are having a lot of fun. I love my new found friends here and am loving the 60 degree temperatures.
