Blessing Baby Ty

Everytime I get to hear a father bless his child in church I cry. Hearing a priesthood blessing always makes me cry but when it's a father to his child it's even more special. I love that they get that opportunity and it's one they'll never forget. Unfortunately Baby won't remember any of it. :( So I am writing this to help him (and ME!) to remember. :)

Baby Ty was blessed on  September 6, 2015 by his amazing daddy, Justin. The people that joined in the circle were my Dad, my brother Jon, my brother-in-law's Jared and Evan, my uncle's Drew and David, and Justin's cousins Calvin and Clifton and Uncle Gene. And of course our awesome Bishop Jed Smith! We wanted to include SO many more people but they wouldn't have all fit! It goes to show how many people love our family and it makes me feel very blessed.

The blessing itself was very beautiful. Justin cried through the whole thing and I was worse. It's something I've been waiting to hear for a long time and it was perfect. I'm SO beyond lucky to have such an amazing husband who is worthy of his priesthood authority and can bless our children. I know this was just the first of many blessings to come.

All we know is...

The results are in folks... YES! We're pregnant!!! There are simply not words to describe how I feel about this statement. One I've been wanting to make for what seems like forever. One I've heard from so many of my friends and family that made me want to cry. One that seemed impossible to make. And one I am finally able to say for myself. I can't even believe it. We waited 2 LONG weeks to find out whether or not our little frozen circle would become our miracle. And when I say long, I mean long. Especially when I was supposed to start my period on Friday. Last Friday. So usually when you're trying to get pregnant, you wait till the day your period is supposed to start and you wait... If it doesn't come, you run to the store and buy that expensive little stick and awkwardly try to pee on it. (Maybe they aren't really expensive, but it kinda seems that way, right ladies??)  Anyway, then you wait a few minutes and see what it says. I...

Me No Likey

Oh where to start... In the "It finally started" post I said that I had finally started the process of IVF. (clever title, eh?) I also said that I hadn't really felt anything so far. Well, turns out I either jinxed myself or it was just too early to tell. I didn't have crazy effects, but one night I did cry all the way through "Master Chef" which is not really a crying show. haha. I also felt super "off" on Thursday. I'm not really sure how to describe it except to say just that. It was weird and I stayed in bed all day and cried and ate Blue Bell. I guess that's not the worst way to spend a day but it wasn't very productive either. haha. The shots got easier and easier to give myself up until I had to start taking the cetrotide. I only took it twice but both times it stung going in and lasted way longer than the others. No bueno in my book. The next new shot I had was the trigger shot. It came a day earlier than expected but that end...

Next Step

I've been avoiding this post for a while now. In fact, a long time... I've been thinking about it since I wrote the post about our little grey circles that didn't make it. I like writing but the last few weeks have been kinda blah. I also think I've been a little hesitant because I've always wanted these posts to be super happy and chipper but that's not exactly how I feel. After the last post I did get a lot of really nice feedback, one in particular that made me feel extra good. My aunt is an incredible person and I love talking to her. She said to me that no matter how long those grey circles were my babies, they still were and I was allowed to grieve as much as I wanted. I think that kind of gave me permission to really cry and it made me feel a lot better. Thanks Kim. :)  But now we're on to bigger and better things. I can't lie and say that I'm super excited about this transfer. I think I got WAY too excited for the last one/first one and it ...
