An Introduction

Hello all! For those of you who aren't family or friends, my name is Brittney! I'm 23 years old and am married to an amazing man named Craig. We met September 27, 2006 through a mutual friend and have adored each other everyday since! We were married on April 17, 2009 in a beautiful, intimate ceremony with only our closest friends and family in attendance. Our first year of marriage was a hard one. We were either separated months at a time, due to my Craig's training in the military, or we were moving all over the country! A majority of our first year was in Texas. It was a cute, small town but was way too far away from our hometown of Indianapolis, IN. After training we moved back to Indy for a brief time until my husband got a job in St. Louis, Missouri. So, Missouri is where we currently live. By the looks of it, we should be here for a while if not forever (until retirement). I'm content with our life at the moment. We are not too far from family and this city is a lot like Indianapolis. When we first talked about marriage, up until maybe six months into our marriage, I wanted to wait four to five years before even thinking about kids. But around the 1 year and 8 month mark... I had babies on the brain! It's funny how you think you know your plan for life and then one day God completely switches it up! I love how that works out because ultimately His way is the best way.
So here we are. We're coming up on our 2 year wedding anniversary and are doing everything we can to conceive. I wouldn't say we've been actively trying for 3 months (which was our 1 year/8month mark), but definitely not preventing it! In January 2011 I started using OPK's (Ovulation Prediction Kits). A little confusing at first but I think I'm starting to see my pattern. More to come on that!
Thanks for stopping by! Please join us on our TTC journey!
