Where I Sit Today


A lot has changed since I last took the time to write. 
We moved apartments last February, and had my wonderful parents assist in setting up our little home.
I accepted a new position last January with a wonderful company, and have the best of friends to call co workers.  
We joined our church in July, and know that Denver is exactly where God wants us. 

Those are all the things that have changed in the last few months, but one thing has not we are still a family of two. After trying for a little one  for almost a year, and doing acupuncture for six months, we have decided to seek advice from a professional. 
On Wednesday I had my first appointment with the infertility Doctor, and I must admit that I absolutely adore her. She knows Craig Hospital, where Kaleb has been doing rehab for almost three years. She is calm and takes the time to truly explain everything that could possibly be going on. She has a wonderful team that additionally makes you feel welcomed and loved. We went through the blood work and an ultrasound to bench mark where we stand, and she has started me on new medication. 
I chose the picture above, because no matter how long I wait or how much I want it. I know that the lord has my best intentions in mind, and that I am not going through this alone. I know that I have a God who has led many women thorough this before me, and will not forsake me. I pray the words Hannah prayed as she waited for a sweet baby. I remember Sarah who the lord opened her womb. I know that the lord will bless me when the time is right, and that through this I will grow deeper to him. 
Xoxo,

    Praying for you and Kaleb! I know waiting for the Lord can be difficult but you are not alone. It's all in His timing and He has a plan. So glad to see you are back to writing! Love you guys!

It's a Family Tradition

"Traditions are behaviors and actions that you engage in again and again – regular rituals that you perform at the same time and/or in the same way. Traditions can be big or small, but they differ from routines and habits in that they are done with a specific  purpose  in mind and require  thought  and  intentionality . Meg Cox, the author of  The Book of New Family Traditions , defines family ritual as “any activity you purposefully repeat together as a family that includes  heightened attentiveness  and  something extra that lifts it above the ordinary ruts .” Traditions, when done right, lend a certain magic, spirit, and texture to our everyday lives." Brett and Kate McKay As we approach the wonderful holiday season my heart begins to journey  back to childhood memories and the family traditions that make those memories so perfect. I come from a large family filled with lots of cousins, tons of laughter, and of course many tradit...

March 30th

The last two months of our lives have been a complete whirlwind of emotion, stress, and utter joy!  On March 19th we were able to endure our first IUI, where I laid very similar to Phoebe in Friend's and prayed with my husband that this would be our first and last IUI. We went in with hopeful heart's and praying minds, and knew the lord had a plan. The following weekend we went on vacation to San Diego where I unfortunately began  to believe that our IUI had not worked, and that we were not pregnant. I experienced cramps, was grumpy to my poor family, and walked around feeling like Shamu on the beach. So obviously I wasn't pregnant, right... Fast forward to March 30th, two days before I was technically supposed to test. It was a Wednesday night, a Wednesday night where I  obsessively thought about nothing else but that I wasn't pregnant. I did what any mildly obsessed woman going though infertily treatments would do, and tested. I jumped in the bath and pretended th...

Remembering November

Well, hello there November, and yes I am aware that it is November 3rd and well I should have written this three days ago, but anyway  November has always been one of my absolute favorite months, for well the obvious, Thanksgiving, fall decorations, and MY BIRTHDAY! Which is in two days, I'm like V for Vendetta REMEMBER, REMEMBER THE 5TH OF NOVEMBER. All of these awesome things are reasons to absolutely adore November, however two years ago November also developed a very different feeling.  November 10th will mark the two year anniversary since Kaleb's accident. And though I will always love November I now have a heavy heart as we fast approach that day. It is as though every birthday will in some odd way be a reminder of my 21st which is what I was celebrating when I received the phone call that forever changed our lives. Every Thanksgiving as joyous and wonderful as it will be will also remind me of the saddes...
