Girls Day!!

Whew! It's been a whirlwind of a weekend! But in the best possible way!!!

Friday we had a girls day! My friend Kelly drove up from San Antonio and I picked her up Friday morning at the bus station. We went to meet Christina at Cracker Barrel for brunch right after that. The food was really good but we had a pretty comical experience of the crankiest people on earth serving us. It was hysterical.

After brunch, we went to Christina's to swim! This was definitely my favorite part of the day. There is nothing better than just laying out with your girlfriends without a care in the world. Was AWESOME! We even had sno cones delivered, thanks to Christina's sweet boyfriend. Christina and I "tanned" in complete shade and we somehow ended up burned, ha. I felt really fat in my swimsuit, but at least I felt fat with my girlfriends that don't care how I look. LOL I'm SO beyond looking cute at this point. I'm just SO tired. LOL.

After we swam, Christina went to her friend's house to set up for the shower and Kelly and I went home. I, of course, needed a nap so she took my car and went to buy a shower gift while I slept. I felt good when I woke up and we had Mexican food, my fav! YAY! While we were there, we were serenaded by an Elvis Presley impersonator. That was interesting. Haha. And then we came home, played online and then went to sleep!

It really was the perfect day. I felt good that day, I was with some wonderful ladies, and it was just one of those days when you realize how beautiful life is. I'm so happy to be able to enjoy my life again. I was in a scary place for awhile and my new medicine has really balanced me out to look at the best parts of my life and focus on them. I've had so many downs in my life, and right now is definitely an UP. I'm learning to cherish EVERY. MOMENT.

    Yay! :o) It was really a great day. I have to say that I needed the relaxation, and to just have a chill day (weekend) more than I knew. LOL.

Infertility

So I have learned this Mother's Day that this day brings up a lot of different emotions. Most think of their mothers, and spend the day thinking about how grateful they are. But that's not everyone's story. While most are grateful for their mothers, Many want to be mothers and have today as a set reminder that they aren't. And others have Mothers in heaven and are unable to be with them. It just makes me sad... I did not have an easy road with fertility. It seems short in the big picture, but it certainly did not feel that way going through it. I tried getting pregnant two times before I went to a doctor. Then I tried 4 times with a doctor, perfect timing and eggs and still nothing. I was put on drugs and my emotions were pushed and pulled from hormones and I followed the same cycle of HOPE, FEAR, DISSAPOINTMENT, and TEARS. Until the 5th time, JOY! It took me about 7 months total to get pregnant. And about $12,000. I am crazy regular and ovulated every month of my lif...

Seeing The Heartbeat

This past Monday was a special day. I got to see my baby's heartbeat for the first time. Also, this appointment was the first time I'd seen my doctor since I'd found out I was pregnant. Backstory: we've tried for 5 months to get me pregnant, altering meds, doing double procedures, the whole nine yards. And my doctor is WONDERFUL, I absolutely adore him. He's hilarious, SO sweet to me and we have bonded through the 5 months of me seeing him all the time about my failed pregnancy attempts. Well, fast forward to heart beat day he asked me if I wanted an ultrasound and I said yes! He turns the screen towards him, I guess to not upset me if he doesn't see anything and he immediately says in his adorable excited voice, "I see a baby and a heartbeat!" YAY!! Then he proceeds with, "but before I show you, I need to look at your ovaries, because I care." Then he turned the screen to me, and before my eyes stood a blurb of cuteness with a visual bulging...

Adam's First Party

Today, I got an invitation to an SMC pool party on September 13th. I was thinking to myself, "Oh fun, I love those!" And then it hit me! Adam will be here by then!!!! YAY!!!!!! He will be roughly 3 weeks old! Now I normally wouldn't be huge on exposing him to germs when he's so little, but because it's outside and fresh air, I think it could be good if I was recovering well. I would just need to make sure he is in the shade the entire time and that he doesn't get overheated.  I'm excited! His first party!! I was excited to RSVP with a +1. It made my day!!!!!
