Dr appt and our upcoming journey

I went to the Dr. today, my break is OVER and we get to start with this journey again...I might sound crazy to everyone but I am EXCITED. I didn't like sitting back and just NOT trying.

WELL, they will start off my inducing my cycle (it's late, but it's b/c my body doesn't work without meds...they did a blood pregnancy test, JUST to be sure...but we will have to induce my cycle). SO, once my cycle starts we will start with the 100mg Clomid on days 3-7, the estogen and progesterone...then the HCG shot and IUI! I don't have any dates for sure b/c it all depends on when I start.

BUT everything is set into action and were ready! I am so excited and so is my Dr. I just LOVE my Dr. office. It's pretty bad when you walk in and everyone says they missed you (thats a wonderful thing, but it just means you spend WAY too much time at the Dr. office haha). But I enjoy myDr. office, I feel as they truly care. My Dr. doesn't shake my hand, he hugs me...then when he leave he tells me he's praying for me. That is one of the best feelings ever, knowing that my Dr is praying for us. He is a great Dr, and I love that office...the ladies there are wonderful!!! They always ask how I am and know my situation and keep up with me, it's really sweet and appriciated.

Well...keep checking back, because hopefully within the next week we should have dates! It looks like it won't happen next week, but it will happen this next month...so does September feel like a lucky month??? I sure hope so!!!

2 1/2 DAYS....

ONLY 2 1/2 days until my Dr. appt!!!! I am SOOO excited it's unreal! I am hoping I will be able to start the IUI process next week (IF everything works out) if not then I won't be starting it for another month/cycle. BUT either way I am SOO glad to finally be off this "Stupid so-called break". I am ready to try again and not just "sit back" and watch day after day of my ttc journey pass me by!!

Just keep me in your prayers please that everything goes well from now till my appt so that I will be able to start the process sooner vs. later. :o)

Road of "Life"

When Zach and I first started trying to concieve someone sent me the following email and we enjoyed it so much, I hope you enjoy it and find it as inspiring as I did!

"The road to success is not straight. There is a curve called Failure, a loop called Confusion, speed bumps called Friends, red lights called Enemies, caution lights called Family. You will have flats called Jobs. But, if you have a spare called Determination, an engine called Perseverance, insurance called Faith, a driver called Jesus, you will make it to a place called Success."

This email is one of the reasons I learned to put every one of my concerns and fears into God's hands and let HIM DRIVE me through the bumpy road of LIFE. God is the ONLY one who knows which was to turn to get you to the what we all want in life "success".

Philippians 4:13 --- I can do all things through Christ which strengthen me.

10 more days....

Only 10 more days until my Dr. appt. I am excited about this, this is where we will start my Clomid/IUI process!!!! I am sure it won't be right away, b/c I am due for AF any day now so I will have to wait this cycle out, then next cycle (b/c you have to start Clomid at the begining of a cycle) SOOO...my next adventure down this TTC journey will most likely be in the middle of September. I would have LOVED to say I got pregnant on the "break" months, however I knew that wouldn't happen. My body just doesn't like to work on it's own (GOSH I have a lazy body!!!) It likes and needs that extra push...I hope I have an oppsie baby next go round haha...I would LOVE LOVE LOVE to say "OMG...I think I missed my cycle....OMG I am pregnant and my baby is only ......months old" I know most of you are saying "she is nuts"...but after trying sooooooooo long, I seriously would love to have my next baby be an "uh-oh baby"....I would love to know how it would feel to not try!!!!! Hopefully after I get pregnant this time, I won't have to go down this journey again. Don't get me wrong, I am so thankful for having to experience this b/c it has taught me and my husband sooooo many lessons and we have grown SOOOO close...but at the same time it has been a roller-coaster from H3LL that I wouldn't want ANYONE to experience!!! Well, keep Zach and I in your prayers as in less than 30 days we will start a new chapter in this TTC journey :o)

Inlaws visiting

Well my inlaws are in town, my mother in law, sister in law and neice came in last Monday...and this past Saturday my father in law flew in. They leave this Friday. I can't express enough how much it means to Zach and I that they have spent this time with us, in our home. We miss them like crazy and it's so nice to wake up and see them every day. The bummer is it has ranined pretty much the majority of the time they have been here. Here we were explaining to them the high "100" degree weather we were having and it hasn't even broke 100 since they have been here. But regardless, heat or no heat they have had a blast. We bought an above ground pool last week, nothing fancy--just a 4ft. pool, but boy has it been fun! This past weekend when we went to Austin to pick up my father in law, we stayed the night in San Marcus and went to the outlet malls, then floated the river Sunday. I am going to be so sad to see them leave this coming Friday. I miss having them here and miss seeing them as often as we used too.

I have been extremly blessed to have the inlaws I do. They are just like my own family, they don't treat me any different then there own children/siblings and thats what makes me feel so special. I am not "the in-law" I am there daughter/sister!!!! I love my inlaws like there my own flesh and blood!!! I thank God everyday for blessing me with such an amazing husband and such an amazing family!!!

I will post pictures of everything whenever I get them downloaded!!!!
