Well so it's not my fertility Dr, but the night of my birthday I started feeling really bad...the next day it just kept getting worse and worse, so I left work early and went to the Dr, they told me that I had an extremely bad sinus infection, one of the worst ones she has seen in a while...they gave me a cortisone shot to help with the excessive drainage, which that has seemed to go away...however all my other symptoms seem to be getting worse...I am on antibiotics and just hope this mess goes away soon...well Zach calls me yesterday evening and says he is heading home early too because he didn't feel good either, I just assumed he had what I had and told him if it's still there to go to the Dr. tomorrow....
Well we both woke up feeling horrible, we were up all night coughing, sneezing, blowing our noses...so needless to say neither of us went to work today. Zach just got back from the Dr, and he has the FLU! No no good!!!! He saw the same Dr as I saw and she said knowing he has the flu has her a little concerned that my "horrible sinus infection" might just be the beginning to the flu, so she called me in a prescription to the same meds as he will be taking and I am to take them at first sight of fever (which thankfully I don't have yet).
My Goddaughters first birthday party is this Saturday, it will kill us if we are not able to attend due to being sick...please please pray that we both get better soon!!!!!!

What An Amazing Night...
My husband is a dream come true!!! I started to feel stuffy headed around 6ish last night…well Zach told me to not do anything with cooking and he would do it all when he got home…so around 6:30ish the doorbell rings and I go to answer and there he is standing with 25 roses and one in his mouth (for one to grow on!!) Then I go in the kitchen to help him get dinner ready (which I got in trouble for but I can’t help it, I’m just used to helping)…well he goes in to “change” and comes back and kisses me and then rose petals fall all over us…then around 9ish I wasn’t feeling any better so I wanted to go to bed…I walked in to change and there was rose petals all over my pillow with a sweet Birthday Card from my love! Of course after the tears my first thought was “how many of my roses did he have to kill for this….haha!!”…Zach wanted to make this birthday a one I wouldn’t forget and he succeeded…as much as I was dreading this day I had an amazing day and I am so thankful for my husband…my family and my friends for making the past weekend and my birthday so amazing…more than I thought it ever could be!!!
**I will post pics of everything tonight…I uploaded some last night, but then got off when the doorbell rang**

Happy Birthday To ME
WOW…I can’t believe I am 25 today, time flies by!!!
I had an amazing weekend!!!!!!
Friday- We went to Ninfa’s to eat with the Buechel’s, the Heards, the Sims and a few other friends that Zach went to school with, after that we went to crickets, I am “NOT” a drinker, but I thought I would have a couple…well needless to say I got SOOO sick and quickly remembered why I DON’T drink…overall we had so much fun, it’s nice to get out with friends every now and then and I hope we have many many many more fun nights!!!!
Sat- we ran around all day, then headed to my dads to celebrate my b-day, he ordered pizza and wings for me :o) we had some yummy cake then off we went to the magic show (BUT…it was outside and we didn’t feel like standing outside….SOO we went to A&B's instead). We watched some movie (I forgot the name!!) But it was really good, then we headed home and I crashed!!!
Sunday- we went to church, went out to eat with my grandparents at Mama Baris, headed to HEB then headed home…when I got home my house was decorated in Steeler/Birthday stuff…(thanks Ash, your amazing!)…then The Graves and The Skeens headed over as well as the Heards and Buechels….Zach grilled out burgers then unveiled my “surprise” they ordered me a birthday cake that was shapped and looked like a coach purse (SO perfect for me since I am addicted to coach!!!)…then we watched the BIG GAME…the Steelers were winning the majority of the game until the last few minutes the Cardinals came back (Zach and I were on the edge of our seats the whole time, I think I would have cried if they would have let that game slip away in the last few minutes) Thankfully in the last few seconds they made a TOUCHDOWN and won the game!!!!!
Zach got me a new camera, it’s a Samsung-touch screen and I could have played with it for hours, however since I didn’t have a case for it I wasn’t allowed to take it with me Friday or Saturday, so I have to steal pics from Ash and once I do I will post them! I will try to upload the pics I took from Sunday when I get home and upload them too!!

Random Things About Me
25 Random Things About Me:
1.I love my husband more than anything in the world, and believe he was sent from God especially for me. He is my rock, my strength and my everything. Without him I wouldn't be who I am today!
2. I sleep with a stuffed tiger every night-Zach got me this tiger when we first got together and I can't seem to just "throw him on the floor"
3. I am extremely scared of spiders, even the little ones...I don't like any bugs really, but ESP. spiders!!!!
4. I want to be a mother so bad, I want to be able to feel a child kick inside me, I want to be able to look my husband in the eyes and tell him were having a baby, I want to be able to tell everyone who has been there for us these past 3 years that our dreams have finally come true!
5. Infertility has made me who I am today, I truly believe God put this in our lives for a reason...this has made me stronger, Zach stronger and our relationship with each other AND God stronger!!!
6. I am obsessed with decorating...if I could buy everything in Kirklands I would!
7. I have so many shoes I can't even count and yet I want more...I love shoes, I love having the "perfect" pair for each outfit...
8. I am one of the most emotional people you will ever meet, I cry over anything...when I'm happy...when I'm sad...when I'm mad....it doesn't matter I will cry!
9. Being at home in Zach's arms is my favorite place in the entire world, I feel safe and it by far is the best place on earth!!!
10. I love to cook but rarely get too b/c my husband loves to cook as well...I have to admit though he is a pretty darn good cook, so most of the time we are both the ones in the kitchen...but we work good as a team :o)
11. My "Perk" is my hero, she is the one who taught me about God, she has been so much like a mother to and I can talk to her about anything. I admire her strength and her faith and I pray to God that one day I can be at least 1/2 of who she is!
12. I already have baby stuff, I KNOW I KNOW...it's bad luck...but Lord knows when I will eventually get pregnant and the stores might not have that item anymore...the majority of what I have is "decoration" stuff...(for example, when we went to Fredricksburg, we went into a little store that had a prayer that I used to and STILL say every night "Now I lay me down to sleep...." the picture frame has this stitched in there and I just had to buy it for nursery that we WILL have one day!
13. I want to go to school to be a nurse and work with infertility patients like myself, I feel like this was placed in my life for a reason and I would love to be able to help others like myself.
14. I get my feelings hurt over everything, I care so much about my friends and my family so one little remark or anything hurts me extremely bad...I care about people TOO much at times.
15.I love the fact that I have a God daughter, I never thought that I would be able to be a Godmother, and I am extremely proud of it!!!
16. I used to fear the Dr. but yet now it doesn't bother me...shots are not a big deal...blood work? No big deal....it will be all worth it one day when I have my child in my arms!
17. Although people call me "strong" I don't see nor think I am...I have always been a "weak" person, so it's VERY hard for me to think I'm strong. I do know I am strong"er" than I used to be though...
18. I truly feel and (will argue with anyone who tells me different) that God is guiding us through this journey...I feel like EVERYTHING that happens is his plan and that as long as I stay true to him and have faith in him he will bless us.
19. I can never make up my mind with my hair and almost every picture of me it looks different, when it's long I want it short and when it's short I want it long...right now I'm trying to grow it out however I can almost guarantee you that once it gets semi' long I will get tired of it and cut it!
20.I'm obsessed with pregnant belly's, I want to touch everyone I see thats pregnant, the website I am on has a "photo book" section and it's specificly for women who post there "bellys" I look ALL THE TIME--and sometimes I look in the mirror and imagine if I had a belly what I would look like.
21. I LOVE my birthday, every year my mom would send me balloons/flowers to work/school and it's my favorite!!! HOWEVER this birthday is the 1st time I have been "scared" of...normally it's no big deal, but this time I feel like I am getting "old"...
22. I hate leaving the house without makeup on, I feel naked without it and although I know I don't "need" it, I still "have" to put some on...
23. I'm adicted to cheesy reality TV shows...you know "Bromance" "The Hills" "The City" "Big Brother"....
24. I think I have the smallest dog in history, she was supposed to be around 8ish pounds however she just quit growing and barely weighs 2 pounds...she still has her soft spot on her head, the vet said she was just a runt and sometimes these things happen...
25. I am by far not a picky eater, I will try everything at least once, however I never was like this until I met Zach...
