Nebraska State Fair 2010

So I went to the Nebraska state fair expecting it to be just like Alaska's after all aren't all state fairs the same? Well guess what? They are not. The first thing we did was go in to the barn and look at all the different vendors. Then we both were hungry so we started to look for the food. On our way to the food we saw some camels that kids were riding on. In all my years of living I have never seen this.

We finally found the food, but nothing seemed to be what I wanted. I finally came across the Beef Sundaes but they were all sold out. So I settled for a Corn Dog. I then got a freshley squeezed lemonade that was sooo good. I don't know if it was because I was so thirsty or not but I down it like I have been in a desert for weeks.

  The next thing to do on my list was to try to find the photo button booth. I thought every fair had one. Nope not this fair. We walked around for hours to try to find one. That's OK. We got to see all sorts of different things. I had a good time with my husband, It all about who you are with that makes things fun. We still got a picture taken together and I am going to make my own Photo button. Who knows maybe in the future I will get to run a Photo Button Booth at the Nebraska State Fair? You never know.

First Appointment

Today we had our first appointment with the Fertility Center. It actually went better than I expected. We can get started as soon as we do some bloodwork and more testing on David. It was really encouraging. This doctor really seems to know what he is doing. He did advise me to find a good OB here and get a Prenatal appointment before we do anything so any of you that know of a good OB in Omaha let me know. That is really all I have to report nothing much today except a consultation.

David's 26th Birthday

David just turned 26 yesterday so to celebrate he wanted to go to the CoCo Keys Water Park. I was hesitant at first because I really don't like water slides, but when we got there it actually was pretty nice. We played basketball in the water. I beat him brutally at it. We then went to sit in the hot tub which was so nice and relaxing. They had a lazy river which I enjoyed because we all know I am lazy.

Reason for the Blog

Everyone is doing it these days right? Well, I never have really gotten into. I tried it before but it never really worked out because I really didn't have anything interesting to say. When the LORD moved us to Omaha. I have missed AK so much I thought I would blog about that. But I have been led to a different direction.

The reason for this blog is for our Life Journey into parenthood. This journey has been a long road with many road blocks that we are still walking. I am praying one day I see the end of the road and get to have a precious gift from God in my arms. This is how are journey began.

On June 4, 2005. I married my best friend David. We both knew we wanted children about a year after we got married. About  6 month after we got married we decided to go ahead and see where the LORD leads us. Well this went on for about 2 years than fnally in November 2007 I finally saw that positive test I have been hoping for. That was really short lived because about a week after that positive I ended up miscarrying my child. That in itself was rough. So in February 2008 we decided to go to the doctor to see what was up.

He ran several different tests on both me and David. It turns out I ended up having PCOS (Polystic Ovarian Syndrom) This is where my body does release eggs lke it is suppossed to and I don't ovulate regularly. He said it was a miracle in itself that I even conceived in the first place. He said we would only have like a 2% chance of ever conceiving on our own.

So he recommended that we go through severla different revenues on making our dream come true. I have tried being put on ovulatory medicine. In April of this year we even tried the IUI that was also unsuccessful. We have two more tries of that but we moved to NE in the middle of it so we took like a 6 month break from it all. On August 24th I have an appointment with a Reproductive Endocrinoligst to see where the LORD leads us. I will keep you all posted.
