The Difference A Few Months Can Make

The other day I thought I would look for my first pregnancy photo. Well, I found it and lets just say I stared at it for about an hour! I was so shocked as to how much I have changed. So I thought I would share the difference with you...

I know in these last few weeks I will be growing more than I think. I am so curious what my last weeks photo will look like!!

I will say pregnancy is not easy. It may be for some people, but I think it is pretty challenging. A woman's body is so amazing. I was just thinking the other day, where are all my organs? Because I cannot imagine them still being in me!! HA! I am sure they are pretty scrunched. With that said, going through a pregnancy is worth every little pain and discomfort. I say that as our Sweet little Savannah has been punching me the whole morning, that is truly amazing to me. I can just imagine her tiny little hand moving all about, and soon enough I will be able to hold that little hand, and cuddle with my little daughter. It brings tears to my eyes when I imagine that day.

It was a long road to get to where we are today, but I am so glad that we kept on fighting and praying. Mostly I am so thankful for the Blessing that was given to us by our Lord. Pregnancy is truly a reminder of how Awesome our God is!

I think of you all still trying to conceive, you are so dear to my heart. Prayers are being said for you today!!

Today I feel so blessed to be given the opportunity to experience a Pregnancy!

Praying our way through Infertility

I am participating in Kelly's show us your life. This week it is about your ministry.

My husband and I have been trying to have our own little miracle for over 3 years now. We have hope that the Lord will bless us with a child. I started my blog almost 1 year ago, I needed to get out a lot of emotions that come with infertility. I also had been reading a lot of women's infertility blogs before I started a blog of my own, and it was a great encouragement for me to realize that I am not the only woman who is going through this journey. So many emotions come with infertility, and it is only normal, but not every one can relate to those emotions unless you have experienced infertility.

I have just recently realized that I cannot handle this on my own, I always tried to control our infertility my way. I was very wrong. I need the Lord's help. Prayer is my lifeline through our journey. I would love to lift you up in prayer as well!! If you are going through infertility as well, my advice to you would be, "Always know that the Lord is listening to your prayers, and always let Him carry your burdens." My burden of infertility was weighing me down to a point where it was affecting every aspect of my life in ways that I am not proud of, but the Lord has been right by my side helping me find myself again. I know that He can do the same for you!!!

Please let me know if you are struggling. It may be from infertility, or it may not. I would love to add you to my prayer list!

I feel blessed to have a direct line to our Lord. It is through Prayer.

Perfect Night in Winter Wonderland

We got hit by a major snowstorm yesterday! It started to snow around 1:30, and by evening we had lots of snow and horrible roads! Hubby and I were able to spend a great, relaxing evening!

First of all we were starving. So we decided to splurge and eat really bad!

(hence the coke, and hubby likes Diet. UGH!)

What you are about to see is pure amazement for your taste buds!

Delivery boy! Umm, Excuse me...Delivery Man. Ha!!

We have the best pizza place in our little town, we ate way to much of that large pizza!

I was going to go with hubby to one of his B-Ball games, it was a big game that was going to be on a local TV channel and on the radio, but the game got canceled due to the weather as well as all of his games today. I was so happy to be able to spend a whole weekend with my hubby! I felt very spoiled.

We ate and watched all of our DVR, we were just ready to rent a movie on our On Demand when...

...everything went dark! Our electricity was of for almost 3 hours! I gathered all the candles and flashlights I could find, I was loving every minute! I looked outside and it was so beautiful, so we decided to go outside and hubby did some shoveling by our front door.

The snow was so deep!

And very beautiful!

Today we woke up to tons of snow! I had to work this morning, it took hubby forever to shovel a way out of our driveway. Hubby picked me up from work then we went to eat at our local Mexican Restaurant. Our Favorite place! I took a few pictures on our way there.

Doesn't it look so beautiful!! A winter wonderland!! The roads were completely covered.

This is our main road. Not much traffic today!!

We decided to stop in at hubby's parents house, they had been shoveling lots as well!

I'm guessing some of you got some snow as well! I hope you had a perfect night in your winter wonderland as well!! We sure did!

I feel so blessed to serve a God who can create such beauty.

I cannot wait to show you how my project is going! Update coming soon!

Powerful God

The same God that made this sunset can make my womb conceive.

Last month on Clomid update

I wanted to update you on how our last month on Clomid is going. Today is CD 10 and I have finished taking the pills, so now they just have to work. I have felt great throughout the whole cycle. I remember last month the hot flashes started coming a week or so after my last pill. So if that is true for this month, I will be blessed with hot flashes while we are on vacation. Hopefully I will luck out of that. I have not been charting my temperatures at all this month, I thought I am not going to do that anymore. Every morning the first things I did was think about infertility as soon as I saw that thermometer. And you will not believe how much less I think about infertility the whole day through. I think just that little step helped me keep my mind off of this cycle. It always seemed like such a small thing to me, and yet such a drag to do, my temps are always all over the place anyway. I barely thought negatively about infertility so far this cycle, I have said so many times, If God wants us to have a baby he will work through medicine or bless us without medicine. It all comes down to the Lord, He can make so medicine does work or does not work. I have really had peace about this last month through knowing that there is nothing I can do now. I am glad that we are going on vacation tomorrow, because I am starting to feel my emotions kicking in. I am glad our last month is on its way to being over, I want to know the outcome so bad right now! We would appreciate your prayers as we finish this part of our journey through infertility.

Today I am thankful that I am done taking the horrible mood changing and hot flashes causing pill called Clomid.
