Good Morning SITSA's and Peeps!! Welcome!
Thank you so much for stopping by today! I've been waiting for this day for a long time! Come on in and grab a cuppa coffee or tea and have a seat. There's lots to see so take a look around and stay while!
If you don't know what SITS is, it is The Secrets in the Sauce. A great group of women {and some men, too, I believe} that support each other through comment love. Awwww, feel the love.......It's awesome. Really. If you haven't been over to SITS before, head on over there {after you're done here} and join in on the fun!

But for those of you that are visiting from SITS and haven't been by to visit me before, I'm Megan. I've been married to my childhood enemy turned best friend, Kyle, for 7.5 years. Our "children" are Chewy {our 2.5 year old yellow lab} and Milo {our 10.5 year old pain in the butt cat}.
Our 8th grade class. Kyle's at the top left in a white t-shirt. I'm sitting on the right in a gray / jean jacket and have long hair.
Kyle is a general contractor and owns his own business with his best friend {and one of my cousins}. I am currently unemployed due to being laid off in February. Before I was laid off, I was an Administrative Assistant for a builder. I worked there for almost three years and loved it. I am now looking into going back to school to be a Patient Care or EKG Tech. We will see what the future holds.
We've been in and out of treatments for infertility for most of our married life and have yet to conceive. We're not losing hope that one day we will have a family, though. If you're interested in more of our story, you can check out those posts here.
I recently reached 300 posts and I linked up a bunch of them so you can find all of their awesomeness here.
I'm excited that you've all stopped by today and I look forward to meeting lots of new people!We recently celebrated the 8th anniversary of when we got engaged. We don't normally celebrate it, but we happened to be in the same location on the same date, so we took advantage of it.
Thanks Tiffany and Heather for this opportunity!! You ladies are the bestest!

HAPPY SITS DAY!! :)
Congrats!
Woot Woot! Happy SITS Day Megan!!!
Happy SITS day, Megan!
This is unrelated to this post, but I read your 'Hey Peeps!' announcement at the top. Have you thought of installing the disqus tool for blogger? It's what I have on my blogs. It allows you to reply under them in a thread, and it's been so much fun to use. No more no-reply-comment@blogger.com. Nope! Those days are over. haha
hi! compliments for being the featured blog! so happy to meet you. your blog is very nice.
wish you a gerat day!

Happy SITS Day. I've been a follower of yours for awhile (that always freaks me out a little to say that. i'm afraid that it sounds cult-ish. i promise...no koolade here!)
Anyway...i'm so glad you were today's fb over at SITS. it's given me an excuse to catch up on your blog.
life around here is crazy busy. i needed to be reminded that the busy is a blessing. thanks.
Good Morning & Happy SITS day to you!!
Cute blog, can't wait to have more time to read more. As of right now, my little guy is demanding breakfast so I probably should attend to his calls! :0
God bless!

I hope that now you're famous you'll still remember us little people, lol!!
HAPPY SITS DAY!!! Looking forward to reading your story! : )
I found you through SITS. Your blog is great. A urinal in your garage? I thought two motorbikes, twenty pairs of trainers and a drum kit was stretching things a bit. Sending smiles.
Love your blog, first time visitor through SITS! Have added you to my blog roll at www.zemeks.blogspot.com and am now a follower!
Why you say your cat is a pain in the butt? I think it's a very big furry nice looking cat! Like your dog too and Gerard and I celebrate our engagement anniversary each year! We got engaged on my back porch after playing tennis on a beautiful Tuesday night in May.
Happy SITS Day!
Happy SITS day! Great blog.

What a great blog idea. I bet a lot of people can related to you. That's really awesome. Thanks for sharing.
ALso, I had no idea about the reply thing, so I did what your blog suggested so people can reply now. (-:
Thanks for that tip!
~Kathryn
Happy SITS day!!! What a fab blog you run here! so honest and raw, I love it x
Two things:
1) Happy SITS day!
2) For some reason blogger isn't showing me followers or allowing me to follow anyone right now, but I'll be back to follow you. I got an award yesterday, and I just have to give one to you because of your featured post on the random crap in your garage. My husband does the SAME thing, we just don't have anything like a stoplight. I'm sure if he could find one though, he'd get it. Please stop by my blog to grab the award! My e-mail is insomniacprincess2002@yahoo.com and my blog is www.growinguptownsendstyle.blogspot.com
happy happy SITS day! stopping by to say hi! You have a beautiful blog and such a cutie puppy and kittie:)
Yeay for you! Happy SITS day! I have been in your shoes and will keep you in my prayers ... also on my blog list! Hang in there sweetie. You have a great attitude and that outlook will get you far! <3<3<3

I'm visiting you from SITS and I'm your follower now :D
Happy SITS Day to you! And good luck on your journey to parenthood!

You are lovely. What a pretty face. Congrats on your big day. Hope you get lots of SITS comment love:)
Congrats, Megan, on your SITS day! I, too, am infertile. Now 51, the pain has eased a bit. I was fortunate enough to raise my husband's 3 sons and 2 years ago the youngest - now 25 - had his own son. This child has given me the blessings I longed for in my younger years. He's attached to my hip as I cared for him 5 days a week the first 18 months of his life. Now I see him 2x a week, but he still calls me "mommy" instead of Grandma.
People thought I was nuts, caring for a baby all week, but it was my chance to have the baby connection I longed for all of my life.
Before he came along I had made peace with my infertility. I wish the best for you, whatever that means for you.
Raising my stepsons was the roughest time in my life, but having my grandson made it all worthwhile.
Thanks, Megan, for your wonderful blog. Have a blessed day!
yay, it's your SITS day!!!! Congratulations. You know I already love you :0)
SHUT ... UP....!!!!!
Its your SITS day... how cool is that!!!! Have fun meeting new people!!!
Happy SITS Day!
God works in mysterious ways, we may not get what we want when we want it but, he's always on time! Sending prayers your way!
I'm over from the SITS blog. Congratulations on your 8 year engagement anniversary-we still celebrate those days too! :)
happy SITS day! you cute couple, you ;)
Hey there SITSta! Congrats on being featured, I hope you have a great day :)

Nice to meet you and your blog. Over from SITS -- congrats on your day. And on your marriage, because I know how incredibly stressful infertility is and if you guys are still going strong after 6 years, then you are both amazingly strong AND a great match. Best of luck for happiness in whatever form it takes...
congrats! i've been away for a while and i happened to notice you were featured today. hope you had a terrific day :)
Congrats on your SITS Day! I'm touched by your story and I wish you and your husband the best of luck.

Sorry for stopping by so late. Happy post-SITS day!!! <3
So glad your blog was featured. We're infertile too...9yrs. Nice to have friends for the journey. I'll definitely be back to visit.
Hey Megan- just found your blog through SITS and love it. If you haven't read Kelly's Korner yet- you might want to check her out- she struggled with infertility for a long time too. I had a hysterectomy when I was 25 years old and have since adopted a little girl. I know what you're going through- sort of. Thinking of you, praying for you, and will keep on reading!
