GREAT NEWS!

Oh my, I am soooo excited!!! All of this excitment stems from God doing a miracle in my body and allowing me to conceive. Yes, I am PREGNANT! God IS GREAT!

As many of you know, I have been told by my OB/GYN since I was 16 years old that I would not be able to get pregnant due to crazy hormones and PCOS. I believed for most of my life that this was just going to be my reality until I married the love of my life. I just knew that I would have children with this man. God knew the desires of our hearts and we just had to believe hard and trust that he would bless us.

A friend of mine suggested a book entitled "Supernatural Childbirth" which was very inspirational to me. The book consist of a couple's story, testimonies from others, and prayers for the husband to pray over the wife and some to pray together. I recommend it to anyone!

In October, my doctor planned to give me an injection of HCG to induce ovulation, however; when we went for the follicle study the ultrasound tech only found one follicle that was to small to have the HCG injection. I was pretty bummed and discouraged. My fabulous husband brought me back to reality and said, "sweetheart, you have to remember God is in charge and this may be his way of telling us that you do not need that injection because He is going to perform a miracle." Oh boy, that is just what God did! My doctor said it wasn't impossible to get pregnant with such a small follicle, but it was unlikely. God showed her! HA! :)

I am just beside myself with joy and can't thank the good Lord enough. This is our little miracle child that we will forever be grateful for.

Today I am 5 weeks and 2 days along. Please be in prayer with us that this is a healthy pregnancy without any complications. Please pray the blood of Jesus over this sweet miracle child.

I love each of you!

Update on Fertility

Just an update.....

I just got off the phone with my doctor's office and found out that my levels were down this time on 50mg of Clomid. This was discouraging to me, but the nurse told me not to be discouraged because our bodies are just crazy and it's not my fault. So, beginning tomorrow I will start 100mg of Clomid and go to the doctor on Oct. 7th for bloodwork and a follicle ultrasound. IF there is a follicle big enough they will give me a shot of HCG and I will go home...and well you can only imagine the rest. HA! :) I will then go back on Oct. 14th for more bloodwork. Please be in prayer for us as we go through this third round of Clomid. We are believing for a miracle in Jesus name!

Much Love!

Job Update

As you all know, I was laid off from my job in late July. Well, I immediately went to the job agencies, put my resume out myself, called people I knew, etc. It didn't take me long before I had a job offer. I immediately took it, but just never received a peace from God about my decision. Shame on me for not asking if I could give them an answer in a couple of days so that I could consult God and my husband. So, after being on the job for 2 days I just felt really unsettled so Jason and I began to really pray to God to please show us exactly what I was to do. We asked Him to continue to make me feel unsettled if this was not His will for my life, but if I was in the right place to please give me a peace. Well, the peace never came and the feeling of being unsettled continued. We KNEW this was our sign, so this past Monday I called the employment agency and told them exactly what was going on. They took me off the assignment and I am back on the job hunt. As soon as I let it out about how I was feeling I immediately had a peace come over me. We know that we made the right decision.

That same afternoon I received an email from the House Fiscal Division asking me if I was available Tuesday for an interview. I thought, what PERFECT timing! So, I went for the interview which I felt went well and then I was asked to come back on Wednesday for some testing. I really feel that the testing went great. I now have to wait and see if I get called back in for a 2nd interview. We are praying and asking God to prepare us for what he has in store.

God is GREAT and we are putting our full faith in him!

Please be in prayer for us during my job hunt.

Much Love!

Waiting Patiently

We went through our 1st round of Clomid and Glucophage in July and of course that also involved many trips to the hospital for lab test. Poke poke poke....ouch ouch ouch, but it is all for a good cause. :o) So, yesterday my doctor called with some lab results. The doctor had good news. She said that the combination of the 2 medicines really improved my estradiol and progesterone levels. I am not pregnant this month, but my levels are better. This was REALLY exciting news because we know we are headed in the right direction. So, I will start my 2nd round of Clomid this Saturday. We are praying that if it is God's will that we will be able to conceive this round. I really do not want to go through to many rounds of Clomid because the side effects are miserable, but I have remind myself that this is all to bring a little angel into our lives to raise up in God's love.

Please be praying for us! :o)

Much Love!

The Job

Well, Tuesday I was laid off from my job. A new company is taking over and basically they want to bring in their own people, so they are letting several of us go. I was very sad but I do understand that being an Executive Assistant means you must truly be your supervisors confidant.

Do I have concerns? Sure I do! I am nervous, scared, wondering, contemplating and the list goes on and on. The one thing, well two things that I am sure of is that God has something grand in store for me and I have a wonderful husband who is supportive and is my #1 fan no matter what!!! We have an unfailing faith in God and are truly excited to see just what his plan is. The anticipation of the unveiling of His plan truly puts butterflies in my tummy.

Please be in prayer for Jason and I while I am without a job. Please pray for our finances and that God will meet our every need while living on one income. We are children of God and know that He will take care of us! Thank you Jesus for your love!

Much Love!

Staying in Today

Today Jason is sick, my poor hubby. Let me tell ya, when people say that men are the biggest babies when they are sick they are certainly telling the truth. I will not complain though, because I love taking care of my sweetness!

Jason went to the doctor this morning and they diagnosed him with a sinus infection, but went ahead and gave him a shot in his rear and put him on antibiotics just in case he has strep throat. Let's pray this is not the case because I will be the next to have it. ICK!

So, what shall I do today? I am learning this whole blogging thing, so please please forgive me if I bore you. I hope to come up with more interesting things as I get more used to this. After blogging I suppose I could clean a little and then I plan to snuggle up with my Huney and just enjoy each others company despite him being sick. So, I better get to cleaning because the quicker I clean the quicker I get to be snuggle bugs! :o)

Much Love & Lot of Hugs!
