    Wednesday, April 24, 2013 | A Happy story

    Three months ago, we stopped treatment. We had given up on having biological children but about two weeks ago I found out I got pregnant on my own. My doctor is still in shock and so am I. I thought for sure everything would be going wrong like it did with the pregnancy i lost last year. But we saw the heartbeat yesterday. and my hormone levels are good. I still cant believe this.I really think t...

    Miscarriage is confirmed. It seems like it is taking its course naturally and fairly painlessly (thank you for small favors!) Thank you everyone for your prayers and kindness. Now keep me on your radar that we get pregnant with a healthy bean quickly. I hope that since I had this pregnancy it will also keep my endo pain at bay for a few months.
    I should be back to normal activity by Monday. I mis...

    BTW - when I was sitting in the waiting room at my docs office waiting to have my u/s to diagnose the m/c I already knew I was having (and feeling really sorry for myself) a news story came on the television.  
    The story was about a young veteran who lost ALL HIS LIMBS!  ALL OF THEM!  He was undergoing a double arm transplant, which I didn't even know was possible.  I reminded...

    Well, back to the drawing board. Maybe this month will be the month my journey begins. Trying to stick on the positive side. My immune system is not cooperating though. I keep getting these horrendous sinus infections! Boo. Starting tomorrow, I am back on a strict paleo diet and crossfitting it up. Would really like to lose 15 pounds before I get pregnant, but of course conceiving my rainb...

    I just realized by reading my next to last post that I had talked about being nervous for my unborn nephew.  I am happy to announce that he was born healthy and happy on February 26, 2013 around 11:18 am, 7.6 pounds and 20.5 inches long.  I got to meet the little Zeke man this weekend.  He was so precious and perfect!  A little bittersweet, but nice to :)

    When things in your life seem almost too much to handle, When 24 hours in a day are not enough, remember the mayonnaise jar and the 2 Beers.
    A professor stood before his philosophy class and had some items in front of him.
    When the class began, he wordlessly picked up a very large and empty mayonnaise jar and proceeded to fill it with golf balls.
    He then asked the students if the jar was full.
