11.15.2011: Are you kidding me?
Today between preschool drop off and Thanksgiving feasts x2 and a small school party for the birthday girl, Rick and I headed to meet Dr. K. Fun times!
If you start at the beginning it went like this:
Drop Kidlets at school in Southlake- 9am
Hightail it to down town Ft. Worth to meet Dr. K at 9:30- get there to find out they moved my appointment to 12...score..one frustrated mama makes the 30 minute hike back to Southlake in just the knick of time.
Pierce's feast- he was the cutest pilgram you've ever seen but you'll have to trust me on that until I get caught up
Bella's Feast- We had to leave about 5 minutes into hers but we left her with Grandma! Im not sure who loved the one on one time more!
Since I knew I couldnt make it back for Bella's cupcakes at school I left my mom with a camera. I forgot to leave the memory card though...i was flustered:) story. of. my. life.
Sometime right before noon we arrive back in down town at Dr. K's new office. For those who've been reading for a long time...his office isnt red anymore. Ill have to find the ranting post about that. It's int he beginning somewhere (Feb 2007ish).
Since Im an established patient we skipped the paperwork and headed strait to the consult room. Dr. K remembered us, or just read are chart before hand, but was very kind and asked about Bel. I told him she'll be 4 next week and didn't even cry! We also got to surprise him with Pierce:) That was happy.
After discussion about where we have been, where we are now ( from a we'll go gun ho with this or be more reserved) he talked about what he thought the problems could be.
We know somethings for sure:
1. My angry uterus clearly works as I have 2 beautiful kidlets.
2. Clomid makes this girl INSANE. There are no other words. He's agreed to go a different route especially since 3 rounds didn't work.
3. He's pretty sure i do ovulate since im a clockwork kind of girl. Meaning the clomid was pretty much a moot point and i was a lunatic for "fun".
After a brief look on my old test results I still have MTFHR which is just another prescription for the super vitamins and shots when i get pregnant. Woo. FREAKING. Hoo. ( Im full of sarcasm today huh) so at least if we can get my girl parts in gear i can stay pregnant.
Then he looked at a test they do to measure egg reserve. It is a combo thing. 4 almost 5 years ago my antral follicle count was 7 and 3 ( not great but not so low he wasn't hopeful). My fsh was mediocre at best.
Since today is day 1 of my cycle ( super TMI but way to go for planning) we went ahead and did the antral follicle count again. It was no bueno. This time it was 2 and 1. At this rate ill be in menopause before many of my friends. So my eggs are old and rotten. Seriously, I am 29. My eggs are 40. It SUCKS.
Dr. K as great and positive as he tries to be is also super honest. So he told us it isn't impossible but it's not going to be easy. Essentially, since we do have 2 kids it almost makes it harder. On one hand we know what it is like to be around such amazing little people. On the other we have 2 to enjoy and the emotional and financial stress will affect them in some ways. It's a rock and a hard place. We know our family isn't done yet. I just feel it. However we have a huge heart for adoption, so there is part of me that believes maybe the time has come sooner than later and money spent on fertility treatments could be put toward that instead. Who knows...there is a lot of prayers for us to be praying right now. Wisdom, understanding, acceptance to His control over our lives. It's time for us to be obedient even if it isn't an easy decision or what we want.
For now we are going to finish the rest of the testing. Today an ultrasound and bloodwork to test egg quality. Next week( on our anniversary and Bel's birthday- dont you love timing) an HSG. Then we wait for everything to come back and see whats next.
Our game plan for now is IUI. Dr. K said he'd be comfortable with 1 cycle before suggesting IVF. He said honestly there is no point in wasting time or money- which I wholeheartedly agree with.
I never thought id be in this place. Im sad. Im angry. I hurt and ache for something that just might never be. I do have hope and I know our family isn't complete. For now I will just surrender my will to Him and be obedient whether its how i would have done it or not. But man...that is hard. So hard.

Real Life Blooging: The next step in the Journey
It's funny for me to think this blog that is so much about life and love started with loss. It started with hurt and fear of the unknown. So as I sit here and we are back in that place it sort of feels- okay. Like at very least this time we know the journey ends in life, happiness and babies.
It wasn't but 6 years ago I figured out it doesn't always end in babies. Our first miscarriage devastated me. It shook me to the core, the second one hurt but more than anything just made me numb. Annelise, well, she changed me. Then another miscarriage and our infertility journey began. It was short and we ended up with a great set of doctors and a healthy baby Cupcake Princess to call our own. Success. 9 months later my womb was overflowing with our sweet Master P...it was then that I thought " wow we won the battle".
Funny how when we started this journey to #4 I never imagined we'd be on the same winding road. I'm honestly not sure how I feel about it all. I almost want to say this go around has been harder on me. Why, because now I know how amazing the gift of a child is. How I don't really just want a baby, though that's what i tell myself. I want the life. I want the cranky teething 9 month old, the independent toddler. I want the shy 7 year old and the teenager that makes me want to drink hard liquor at the start of the day because he is just that hardheaded. I want it all.
I made the mistake of posting on facebook about how hard it was to walk into Bella's class where all but two moms are pregnant. I am one of the two. It sucks. I'm not unhappy for those women. I am jealous and envious and so sad to hear them complain about how hard it is...because I would give ANYTHING to be pregnant right now. Needless to say there were some comments about " be grateful you have 2 kids some have none" etc. It really just made me angry. Just because my heart aches for another child to love doesn't mean i am ungrateful for the two i have. Just because i want another child more than words can explain doesn't mean I don't hurt or understand those who have none. I just hurt, like they do, for a need you can't just "fix".
Tomorrow we head back to Dr. K ( Click here for our first meeting 4 years ago). I'm scared and calm and really okay. Rick and I had to really think before truly heading down this road again. I mean, it was pointed out already, we do have 2 kids. After A LOT of prayer and even more sit downs with just the two of us, we know our family isn't complete. We feel it. What we do not know is to what degree we will pursue this. Four years ago if we had to we'd go balls to the wall and be totally okay with it. Now, we aren't in that place anymore. This time we are seeing Dr. K after almost a year of being back on my meds and 3 unsuccessful rounds of clomid. ( 3 months of pure HELL you really do not want me to share). It was awful. This time, I'm not ovulating my angry uterus is REALLY angry and now my ovaries aren't even cooperating and it makes me SO mad.
This journey is different. It's marred by knowing how wonderful the end result is. It is also racked with guilt knowing any money spent on something to expand our family takes away from the two precious gifts we have now. It means knowing there will be moments we have to choose between the two, our future and our present. It means walking this path and understanding that loss might happen again, that it will hurt but also we can overcome it. It means completing our family instead of starting it. It means we've come full circle and are ready to do this again. It means there will be lots of tears and leaning on friends who won't have the 'right' words to say or who even really understand but just knowing they care will make it better.
So once again I ask for your prayers, from you my virtual friends. We find ourselves back on this road. It has lots of twists and turns but this time we know the end is more rewarding than the pain.

He is good
Today we received the call that the VP of the corporation Rick works for went to bat for him, a rarity in these economical times. In general no one will take the risk. We are so blessed that this man has not only transferred Rick to a different team but also as of this afternoon reinstated full benefits and pay. We were originally told ( this morning) with a transfer it would be a lower ( by 50% salary) and while it is for sure better than funemployment it wasn't going to be easy.
So that call tonight was a blessing and an answer prayer.
My faith is strong but I cannot tell you how much this week shook me. It was a bleak path and it really rocked me to the core. I haven't had the "why God" prayer in a long time, since Annelise at least, but this week you could find me on me knees asking just that. I understand God is in control, never more so than right now. I get it but I still struggle with the constant why. My family of four has been through more than most people have in a life time. It just doesn't make any sense. Then I realize once again I will never know why, it is His bigger picture and I am just living this life for Him. One day when I'm holding my sweet girl again I'll ask Him but it won't be until then i get a chance.
Everything that happens in our life on Earth is writing our story. I just pray that through our struggles we can live and tell our testimony in a way to reach others. That even through losing Annelise, finacial struggles and worries, through infertility we've had God. He's carried us through the bleakest portions of our lives. He loves us. He wants the best for us. He gave his only Son so we could be saved. Amazing.
Through the bleak, the dark, the rainbows and the sunshine God is good. He is good.

Real time blogging!
On days when I am reminded I have no control for my own life, when life is more than hard but seemingly unbearabl, I choose to remember God is good in every season of life. The hard times and the easy times God is good.
Today I find comfort in a virtual world where I can ask strangers to cover my family in prayer. God knows the situation but if you could pray for our wisdom, strength and continued leaning on Him when we really just want to be mad and angry, I would be grateful. It says in Matthew 18:20 where two or more are gathered in My name I am with them. I believe that and I trust in God and that he can make this better. It is nothing but a simple reminder we really aren't in control, He is. So this is a mere bump in the road but it's left us shaky at best. A little shocked and mostly sad. A new opportunity for our family may be on the horizon, please pray for God's will. We will know Friday.
So when we are at rock bottom it doesn't hurt to list all the things you're grateful for to make life seem a little bit more bearable:
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

- Piercey's sweet laugh and "oh Mans"
- Bella's precious giggle and her I love yous at just the right time.
- A strong Godly husband.
- a mom to run home to when I need a hug
- friends who know something is wrong and simply say " let's pray" in the parking lot.
- fall days
- pumpkin smells
- a growing business that will once again be the sole support of our family
- A faith that continues to grow and comfort me in our times of need.
- Chicken express
- early morning when Bella snuggles between us in bed and shortly after when P comes in with demands of milky and snuggles with sissy
- how my two babies love each other with such ferocity they stop the crowds to hug after spending time apart.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.

09.27.2011: Smiling on the inside
Just so you know MamaTam killed it and I need to open my eyes but we had a blast playing and making the big cousins run down the street after our errant balls:)
Happy Birthday MamaTam! We love you and can't wait to spend another 40 years with you...mostly so I can pick your home but also because you make life WAY more interesting!

09.18.2011: A little bit of old to honor the new
We needed new and fresh. We needed happy. We are finally in a place where I feel we've been through all the hardships one can endure and shown grace, hope and faith. We've survived and as we enter a season of happiness and peace it was time for our house to enter that place too. Gone are the dark walls and here come the happy blue ones:) plus I love the feeling it give off...even Rick woke up the next morning and said " i feel like it needs a cat and a steaming cup of coffee with a new baby in a swing"....yeah dude...that is EXACTLY the feeling I was going for...just without the cat:) It's home.
I was given this verse from the prophetic ministry team on 9/6/11. Essentially, they told me our season of work is over. And ill be honest and say I went into it totally skeptical. After listening to what these women said about my friends, knowing they'd never met them but just prayed over their names and got it right I still didn't believe they'd know anything about me. However, they nailed it and even touched on aspects of my life no one knows about. So i take this verse with great honor and choose to live it!
“His master replied, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant! You have been faithful with a few things; I will put you in charge of many things. Come and share your master’s happiness!’ Matthew 25:21
Today we choose as a family to enter into a season of peace and we started it with a few needed changes:)
09.15.2011: Happy Birthday to me!
Today is my birthday, just another notch in the calender of life around here. Rick is traveling for work so I was glad to spend the midnight hour ringing in my birthday with Kara, the new Bellabowz seamstress. She even brought cupcakes to help us work hard to meet our deadline. At midnight the phone rang with a happy hubby wishing me a great day and asking if i wanted my presents....of course! So after a quick scavenger hunt I found a Wii Fit (from the kids because even though i asked for it if Rick gave it to me it would make him a jerk- or so he says) and a gift card to my favorite nail place. Such a sweet treat!I took the kidlets to school and then met up at another nail place with Tara for a pedicure:) so sweet and a great way to spend a few quiet kidless minutes. After the pedis we met Leah, Andrea, Courtney and Lauri for lunch at Celebrity Bakery where my sweet friends got me a cake complete with candles and gifts! They are too good to me! I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such sweet friends. After lunch and some quick shopping it was time to pick up the little people. It was so nice Megan and Elizabeth our backyard neighbors walked around and the kids played for 3 hours until it was time for Rick to get home! You'll see we finally got to break out the bounce house and it was an open invite to the entire cul de sac. Before I could blink we had about 6 kids playing, giggling and getting out every toy we own! It was a BLAST! What made it better was Bella singing "Happy birthday Mother" and then declaring it was officially a party! I feel so blessed and I am so excited for what this last year in my 20's will bring:) Next year for the big 3-0 there will be a girls trip...im thinking NY! Time to get planning!

09.01.2011: YIKES!
** because hindsight and all that I can tell you he has a chipped/fractured tibia and pulled just about all the ligaments there is. He is set to have a FULL knee reconstruction. SCORE. We also learned that there is no " cool" way to explain this when you have to say " I was taking pictures and jumped off the coffee table onto a random remote control to my sons car." **

07.09.2011: Welcoming Brooklyn and Date Night!
Today Bella and I picked up Grandma to go to a baby shower welcoming baby Brooklyn!
After the shower Bella and Pierce spent the night with Grandma and Pop so we could go on date night with the crew!
Our plans went totally down the drain but we still had a super fun night! It's been a long time since we've laughed that hard!

04.15.2011: Happy Birthday Addie & Moo
Today was a fun Bella/Mommy day! We were invited to a warehouse sample sale for a super adorable smocked clothing line. Its invite only and AMAZING. Lets just say i was able to get 7 beautiful smocked and/or silk dresses for a little under $100. Amazing and one of my favorite brands! Bella went with me to help pick out some for gifts and then a few for herself! It was a fun experience with my girl!
Friday birthday parties are GENIUS! So today we were all excited to help Addie and Moo celebrate turning 4 and 2! I really don't mind taking my kids to birthday parties, really. Its usually a good time and my friends tend to have unique amazing parties that make awesome memories for my kids and their friends. What I hate is what I call the " birthday party circuit" i hate spending every weekend doing the divide and conquer thing so we can manage to attend the parties for both kids. On any given weekend we have 1 party but lately its been more like 3 or 4. Its crazy! I love it but i'd really like one weekend with no parties. However this Friday party thing is sheer genius. We get to do the fun parties but also keep our Saturday for family stuff! It totally rocks! Plus this one was during "the witching hour" between naps and dinner when the kids are crazy so it was a good distraction! It rocked!
All the little people...
The birthday girls and their parents...
CAKE! Yum!
Finished with lots of playing and a silly Bella and Sailer being their silly selves. LOVE those two friends!

04.02.2011: SCORE x2
Another Saturday another soccer game! Today the WHOLE family was there for support...Pop, Grandma, Grandmom, MamaTam and the cousins.
Since Bella hasn't been so hot on the game field lately we mostly socialized. Only today she took EVERYONE by surprise and scored not once but TWICE and we nearly missed it!
the STARS....
this is her first quarter...and the main reason we were chatting instead of paying attention...
That's my girl:)
a little sit-down with coach Berry...
and finally the competitive gene shows its head...
We were all so STUNNED at her first goal there are not any pictures! Seriously amazed she even moved since the last game coach Berry told her to 'stand in this spot' and she did...the whole game:) After a few minutes I finally had to ask him what he said to her and he said BEFORE the game i told her to stand there but not DURING...she took him pretty literally and just stood... at least she's coachable:)
The second goal and VICTORY jump...good thing she hasn't witnessed Mia Hamms shirt of moment because she SO would have done it here!
After the game I asked her what made her want to really play soccer today and her classic Bella reply " they wouldn't share the ball with me so I JUST TOOK IT from those kids"...SCORE:) I love my Bella girl:)
Poppy rewarded Bella with $10 GOAL dollars ( a little pricey if you ask me but as long as he's paying) and she headed for a weekend with Grandmom and a trip to the mall to spend her money:) She was one HAPPY girl when we got her back on Sunday!
WEIRDEST thing EVER! A gaggle..herd...not sure what it is but a BUNCH of turkeys made us stop in our tracks...they've been wandering the neighborhood for a while now and Rick thought i was going crazy but finally I caught them on camera...turkeys:) who'd a thunk it!

2.25.2011: Dancing the night away
We ended the week with our yearly Mom's League Gala and silent auction! It was such a great time with all our friends! A HUGE thanks to Grandma and Pop for watching the babies so we could enjoy ourselves!
Timer self portrait fail!
From a real photographer- Thanks Leah!
We finished the night with a quick after party at the bar in the hotel to celebrate Taras birthday! It was an awesome night!
My favorite friends...and just so you can put two and two together- Tara ( Sailer and Lincs Mama) and she is 30ish weeks pregnant with #3 Sable Rose...i love her or I couldn't tolerate that kind of metabolism), Katie ( Hudson and Harpers mama) me and Leah ( Ben and Ty)
Minus a Katie and add Courtney! She owns Pierceys girlfriend Hayden Claire....and is the nicest lady I know!
