Well.. I am again behind on my blog! Seems I keep up for a while, then drop the ball. Oh well...let me get you up to speed.
I have still been doing good with my food and my blood sugars are much better. I try and make good choices most of the time and starting tomorrow, I am going hard core on the exercise (Sarah, don't hold it against me if I wimp out tomorrow :) feeling empowered just now).
I heard back from the doctor about my ultrasound and he said that the Follicles are present, but do not appear to be large enough to suggest ovulation...that means I have to get my progesterone level checked tomorrow to see if I ovulated (and try to hold it together if I didn't), and then we will switch to another medication to try and get this body to give up some darn eggs. Seriously, it should NOT be this hard to get pregnant!! (I know there are many who have been trying for much longer than me, but I am losing my patience a bit)
I am starting a new class tomorrow so homework will be my entertainment for large parts of the day. Lots of research in this particular class, but the text is great so far. I am so excited about being a teacher and being impactful in the life of children.
I got a bit emotional today during church, one of the scriptures was from Jeremiah where God says to Jeremiah, "I knew you before you were formed in your mothers womb" With all my baby issues and with the arrival of our new little friend Micah, I am amazed at the love of God. He knew us before we were formed, he knows the plans he has for us and he LOVES us way before we love Him back. We are blessed with families and friends and pets and nature and little girls and boys who laugh and make noise in church and bright shiny new babies just full of possibility. As I wait for my miracle to happen, my prayer is that God will help me get out of the way and let Him work out the plan for my life. The hardest thing for me in my walk is wanting what God wants instead of what I,I,I want. I know God has my family safely in his hands and I must trust that HIS will is better for me that MY will.
Getting Crafty:
For the last week or so, Emily has had a bit of a Upper Respiratory Infection and has been having trouble sleeping because of a stuffy nose. Well I gave her a pillow to elevate her head and make it easier for her to sleep. I used an extra throw pillow and put a regular sized pillow case on it and it looked awful. So I began the search for an appropriately sized pillow and pillow case. They don't have them at Kohls. Well after dinner the other day at Papacita's (I know Mexican is NOT good for you), I stopped in to the Tuesday Mornings and there it was, a perfectly Emily sized pillow for only $7.00, well I picked that up right away. I was going to just cut down a large pillow case to fit, but when I got my sewing basket down, I had the cutest red fabric with teapots and teacups on it that says "A little cup of kindness". I whipped up a couple of pillow cases for miss Emily's new pillow and she is just thrilled. She calls it Emily's night night pillow.
That's about it for now. I have to go get a bag ready for the gym in the morning (hard core remember)
Till next time.
