I have to say I never thought I would still be childless at 29. It seems like almost every day someone is announcing their pregnancy or the birth of their 2nd, 3rd, 4th child!!!!! It's crazy really. I still feel so young but most of my friends have multiple children!!! By the time my mom was my age she had 5 kids!!!!!
I think it's a good thing that I still feel young, but I am not quite sure if its such a good thing that people think I look as young as 17! Lots of people say that that's a good thing but I am not quite sure. I don't want to be stuck in this stage of life forever!! I don't want to be looked at like a teenager.
-----UGG annoying. ----- Anyways I am totally getting off subject here.
So Tim and I have potentially 2 years left here in SC. There is a slight possibility they could send us some where else next year. They could send Tim out to sea for his last year being enlisted. This would totally suck because that means if he is out to sea then we cant try to get preg.
I know, I know, 29 is so young but people just don't get it! The longer we go being unsuccessful at conceiving a child the worse it gets. We get older, our chances go down. Also if we get transferred next year that means we only have a year left to work with South Eastern Fertility. If our IVF in the fall doesn't work that is another year lost. Another year.
The years go by too fast.
So folks we're gettin down to the wire. It has to work!!!! It just has to. If not, I just don't know if we will ever get to be parents.
Anyways we will keep you updated on when we are going to do our 1st round of IVF. I pray more than anything that this works.
In other events I am in school this summer semester. I have to play catch up now because I really screwed up some classes over the whole adoption situation. So I am retaking some classes to try to recover from that. I really like school and it gives me lots of time to do what I love.. take pictures of course.
Tim finally got a day staff Job at the Nuc school. It has been heaven. He works no nights, no weekends, and no holidays!!! We are so grateful for that. His Subaru is out of commission so he is driving around a little hoopty to work and back. Hopefully in the fall we can afford to get him a different car.
We are both taking Krav Maga classes 2-3 times a week(and loving it), we are both watching what we eat(not so much loving it) BUT we are shrinking!! I cant say I have seen the scale move a lot, I have only dropped about 6 lbs. but my body is changing. I can see and feel a big difference!!! I had gained a lot of weight after we lost baby #4. I am trying my hardest to really get my body in shape and ready for the IVF.
We are looking forward to seeing my family in August when we go to Utah. We will be there for 2 weeks again but this time we will have more time to see friends and family. I really want to take Tim to Lagoon and possibly up to Pineview dam so he can some of the things I did while growing up. We are also going for a family reunion up at my Dad's cabin. Super stoked about that;)
TO ALL MY UTAH PEEPS!!! --- If you want to see us let me know!! I want to see as many of you as possible.
And that is the Happs for now
Love you all ........ Stay tuned

Sounds like you have some fun stuff coming up! I am happy you are back in school, you seem to really enjoy it.
I also gained weight after the miscarriage. I was the heaviest I'd ever been. It sucks!
I want to try Krav Maga!
