Ya'll... I am in complete shock. I'M PREGNANT!!! 🎉 I've been off birth control for almost 2 years now. We've been really casual about it. Never tracked ovulation/temperatures or anything else. We have always been of the mind set "It'll happen when it happens" and "We trust Gods timing above all" Then a few months …
I've had three rounds of shots so far. The first one was rough, I got pretty sick after. But since then, I have been doing really well. I met with the doctor this week and got some exciting news. My chart showed that we were TTC before being the allergy shots. I was grateful that …
Well, the title pretty much says it all. I've had allergies all my life. I'm allergic to environmental things like pollen, mold, dust, and cedar. As well as cats, feathers, dogs and a few other random things. I researched... okay googled, allergy treatments but I never truly looked into it. I am extremely grateful for …
My husband and I recently started looking for a new car for me. He has had 4 vehicles in the last 3 years. He loves everything about the process, the hunt, negotiations, customizing/working on the vehicle, selling for a profit and then starting it all over again. I could not be more different. I have …
I know we are just a few weeks into this journey but I am so proud of my body. Each month I get my period, my initial reaction is disappointment but it is always closely followed by gratefulness. I know that sounds extremely odd, especially considering that we are TTC (Trying To Conceive). However, I …
This week makes one year. One year since we left Georgia. One year since we last saw our families. One year since we moved into this little house of our. One year since we made Texas home. This is the first time we have had the pleasure of calling somewhere home for more than a …
Since being married, we have only been on two vacations. The first was our honeymoon and the second was just a few months after that. He was away at AIT for our 1st anniversary last year. We unfortunately did not get to spend it together but we made the best of it and celebrated a few …
What a month it has been! I know I have been absent these past few weeks but we have been having the most incredible time together. From drive in movie theaters to whole in the wall restaurants, we are having so much fun exploring our "new" state and town. With that said, as wonderful as …
He's home and my heart has never been happier. My heart raced and I fought back tears as I read his text "We're boarding the plane now. I'm coming home, I'll see you soon." I barely slept that night. Excitement coursed through my veins. After 9 months apart, just 20 hours stood between me and …
While they are home, "deployment" is the word you don't want to hear. And while they are deployed, "delayed" is the word to hope never to hear. Unfortunately for us, that is exactly what happened. The rational side of me knows that its not much longer and that it will be here soon enough but …
