From heart pouring over

I haven't been the most faithful blogger lately but I wonder sometimes to what effect I post these anyway. I mean I do love reading about other people's life and assume they like reading about mine.

I have been bottling so much up lately due to "my condition" lol. I am no 13 weeks along into my first pregnancy and have had so much on my mind but really wanted to "get out of the woods" before I told the world.

This has been one of the most difficult things to hold back from shouting. I am blown away. Literally, overwhelmed with love and emotions for this little "mocha bean" that this being knit together by the Almighty in my body right now.

I am so early on and know there is so much to experience in the coming months, years, lifetime! I am already proud of my bean. I have prayed and wanted a baby for so long. I mean there where times, pre-David, that I wanted to be a mom more than a wife. Now, I am glad that my prince charming is along for this journey.

For those of you who don't know, I have been struggling with a disease called Endometriosis since I was about 14 years old and the doctors have told me all along the way to expect delays and complications and even prepare for adoption if I really wanted children. This has been a heavy thing that I carried and a discussion that I knew at the time my future spouse would need to be aware. Thankfully, God brought the most amazing man ever into my life and we agreed right away that adoption is always a consideration and that we would consider that journey a blessing as well.

After having some difficulty earlier this year I went to see yet another specialist who decided to switch things up a bit with treatment and man oh man did it switch things up. I never expected this to be the next treatment plan but it is truly the best-both for my body and for my heart.

So here's to a new chapter of thoughts and ponderings. And to the three people that read this thanks for coming along for this ride.

Epilepsy Hitting Too Close To Home

I am sitting in my bed typing with tears streaming down my face and snuggling next to my sweet baby girl. It has been a difficult morning for my momma's heart. Chelsea has been diagnosed with Epilepsy . She has been having what seemed like a slight tick for almost a year and they have become more frequent and been joined by moments of pure catatonic state that last about 30 seconds. I brought up the tick with the pediatrician at her 18 month well visit but he said given her age we should just watch it and take note. Then about two months ago when we were traveling to celebrate my grandpa's 80th birthday Chels had a convulsing seizure. It was to date the worst day of my life. The seizure was accompanied by a fever and the medical team at the hospital felt confident it was a febrile seizure . Which if you don't know 1 in 10 children experience before the age of 2. My brother had experienced this when he was little and given the fact I was 16 at the time remember very clearly

God's Provision

With my new challenge of not buying anything for a full calendar year I have had some really proud moments like, when I walked through Target and only bought disposable razors and draino and some really hard moments like, when I find a great sale on something.  This morning I realized that my smell good soap is almost out and although I am going to buy soap I am only buying the cheapest  I can find with a coupon, of course! And I am having a BAD HAIR week which is really working my resolve to not spend money. SO, I come into work today in a huff over the hair experience. It is like my fun curly hair has decided to go straight? What is up with that?  Here is where the story gets good and God blows me away. A wonderful woman from my church comes into my office to drop off the key to her house (for which I am house-sitting this weekend) and she puts a great big bag on my desk that includes two pair of the killer deal flip flops from Old Navy, a new smell good soap and get ready, a gift c

So I am getting married in 9 days and I am so excited for that to happen, but I would like to give a run down of my week: Monday-Had to have my entire windshield replaced because a rock broke it. Tuesday-Had to have an air inlet tube replaced in my car and learned of new and exciting repairs needed. David brings me to Jazzercise only to have a wreck right outside the church messing up his car. He is okay and the car is drive-able. Wednesday-My car was put back in shop to have the entire brake system (basically) replaced. It's David's birthday and I spend a good part of his birthday dinner crying and asking him what we are going to do with no savings and one income? I am busy telling God how unfair it is that this is all happening this week. What could he possibly be teaching me? Why in the world is all this happening to us? UGHHHHHH!!!!! And how I am so frustrated about all of it. And how I feel like this should be the time in our lives that everything seems to be falli
