My blog is mainly about infertility, though I am somewhat of a homebody and enjoy posting about home decor, cooking and baking, gardening, and other everyday tasks that I try to make meaningful. DH and I have been married for almost 7 years (Whoa!) and have been off birth control for more than 5. We've been "officially" TTC for the past 4 years and undergoing fertility treatments for the past year. The past year has included 8 rounds of clomid, 3 IUIs, 1 successful pregnancy followed by 1 miscarriage, numerous ultrasounds, close to $2000 spent and countless tears.
Currently we are taking a break as we try to get my body back on track, save up some more money, start to look at adoption, and attempt to rid our lives of stress. :)
Emotionally, it's been quite a year so I'm slowly trying to pull myself back to my feet again and enjoy life with our without kids. I hope that the focus of this blog in the future will be more about finding enjoyment in everyday (and extraordinary) events, and less about the depths of despair.
So, welcome, and feel free to take a look around! I've been saving up posts for this week, so be sure to come on by again as there will be lots to read.

Hi! Here from ICLW! excited to follow along with your journey!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your husbands sock! I've been following along for quite awhile now...thank you for sharing your journey.
ReplyDeleteHi from ICLW. Okay what is your husband wearing on his feet? Toe socks? Or is that shoe-less sock shoe by Vibram? Or is it just that my eyes are wonky?
ReplyDeleteNot doing ICLW this month (because I thought I'd be busy!), but stopping by to say hello anyway!
ReplyDeleteGreat picture!
Hello there from ICLW! I am sorry that this last year has held so much disappointment. We have all been in that place and it downright sucks. I have much hope for the next year for you.
ReplyDeleteI'm curious about those socks as well?!
ReplyDeleteWishing you all the best for your break. Hope you get to enjoy it!
You guys are cute!
ReplyDeleteHaha! I hadn't even noticed the socks. They are toe socks that can be worn inside Vibram barefoot shoes. DH used to have the shoes and still prefers the socks sometimes.
ReplyDeleteI love that picture. You two are so cute!
