On Saturday, June 12th — our Dining Room was transformed into a photo studio for sweet baby Adaleigh. I often assist my sister with family and/or baby photo shoots. It keeps me busy and I enjoy getting acquainted with some of her clients. It was a long shoot for everybody, considering you have to take…
We Are Family
It’s been quite a while since I posted. My parents were in for a visit recently — what a great week we had — the Lord perfectly timed their visit after our recent medical disappointment. Can I just say that there is absolutely nothing like family? I love my family so much. I love having them here…
Egg Retrieval – Unfortunate News
Today has been a physically and emotionally draining day — getting up at 4 a.m. and spending most of the morning at the hospital. Plus, poor Steve had been up all night for work. We both arrived at St. Luke’s absolutely exhausted around 5:30 a.m. We went through all the generalities and waited patiently for…
Egg Retrieval – Friday 05.21.10
First and foremost — Vegas was AWESOME. I could make that a yearly weekend getaway. Loved the whole weekend! My feet would disagree, but fashion always trumps comfort. HA! As you may already know, I started my IVF meds on Friday, May 14th. From that time till now, things seem to have been a whirlwind. It…
Vegas or Bust….
Kristine and I are off to Vegas this morning for a birthday weekend getaway. Woo-hoo! I can’t believe that we turn 36 on Monday. Wow! I’m getting old. Smile. Anywho, we are both excited to have a little sister getaway; however, I will miss my hubby and little Parker terribly. 434! Secondly, today I start…
Project Egg Retrieval – Injection Teach
Hello friends and family… it’s been awhile since I’ve posted any updates on our IVF journey. I completed the cycle of birth control pills on Saturday — glad to have that behind me. Hoping and praying I won’t have to do that again (smile). This morning Steve and I had an earlier start to our…

Last Sunday, May 2nd — Steve got an e-mail from his mom saying that she and her husband, Kelvin, would be pulling in on Monday night. We were expecting them for a visit the beginning of May, but were anticipating a couple of days notice. However, they happened to be in Nashville and their trip…
Chair Railing and Painting…
I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted anything — we’ve been keeping a wee-bit busy. In the past few weeks, we’ve been staying busy trying to work on some additional house projects. One being the installation of chair railing in our dining room and the other the painting of our guest bath. I…
Project Egg Retrival — Update
For the most part, everything is on schedule and going well. I just wanted to post a quick update. As of Friday, I started feeling/experiencing a great deal of side effects from the birth control. I hate the way my body feels right now and I’m anxious for May 8th to get here. My mom reminded…
So Long, Insecurity…
Over the past few weeks, I’ve been reading the book So Long, Insecurity: You’ve been a bad friend to us by Beth Moore. It’s been a tremendously insightful book into the insecurities of women. And I learned a great deal about myself. I knew I had a few insecurities, but found I had more than I…
