1DPO Today...

Well, I'm officially in the 2ww. Thankfully I'll have lots to keep my mind off everything. We're leaving tomorrow to go visit J's family. Then we'll be back for a week, and then we'll take a weekend trip to see my family. I should know if we're pregnant or not before we go see my family. Don't know if we'll tell them anything if we are. Guess we'll cross that bridge when we get there.

I won't be able to get back on here again until we get back home, so Happy 4th of July a little early!
