First let me start off with my results from my latest lab results. We finally got the diagnosis we hoped for. The cushings test came back negative. So my doctor officially diagnosed me with PCOS. (Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome...google it, I don't have the energy to explain it) With that said, she started me on Progesterone to get my cycles regulated and within four days of starting that med, I started. Wahoo!!! She also prescribed me Metformin. it's typically prescribed to patients with type II diabetes. Well we know for sure I do NOT have diabetes but it is also used in horomone replacement therapy, so in my case thats why it was prescribed to me. I am in the beginning of week three of taking the Metformin and I'm already noticing a difference in my body. The acne is minimal. The random body sweats are gone. The bloating is gone. The weight gain is no longer an issue. Alot of other more personal effects I've noticed and am grateful. The side effects are far less that what I was dealing with before without the medication. I have extreme tireness with this medicine, some diahrrea, mild mood swings, and a metallic taste in my mouth in the mornings. But other than that, I'm extremely satisfied. Since my doctor HAS indeed given us the green light to start trying for #2, we're not actively trying but we're also not trying to prevent it either. So with that said, we'll see what happens. I would really like to drop some more weight before we concieve but if it happens, I'll be thankful and pray that all goes smoothly. So be looking for that announcement blog in the future... hopefully!!!!
This past weekend we celebrated Hayden's 2nd birthday. It was a great great day celebrated with close friends and my dad drove down from Houston. That was the icing on the cake, no pun intended. Then our dear friends from Allen Texas came down to celebrate with us. It was a great blessing that they were here. Love you Aimee, Bob, Colin, Jennifer, and Erin!!! Hayden was surrounded by a few of his adoreable friends and few family but more importantly with lots of love. A big thank you to those that could make it.
Here are a few pictures from Hayden's day:
As you can tell from the pictures above, Hayden enjoyed his special day.
With out lease coming ending in the later part of June, we're trying to decide if we should stay in Hutto another year or move to the Cedar Park / Leander area. We will eventually buy or build a house in the Cedar Park / Leander area but we have to do some major credit repair before we can even attempt to go that route. So right now we're undecisive if we want to stay in tiny, boring Hutto or move closer to civilization and friends! :) I think thats a no brainer but it all depends if Jon transfers or not. Time will tell.
I know I'm missing more things I wanted to update everyone on, but I'm drawing a blank. I will try to remember to update this post tomorrow.
