Hey everyone!

I just wanted to get on and write a quick post to say Happy Halloween! Now, normally I don't dress up for Halloween because I never have a reason to, but we were in the running for the costume contest at work this year! We all dressed up as the Ninja Turtles, and our boss was Splinters..the rat.
All the girls and I dressed up
The jack o' lantern cake I made..It was SO yummy!
We looked pretty dang awesome if I do say so myself. After work, Matt and I sat out on the porch (In the 30 degree weather) and handed out candy to all the little ones, and that was super fun. We saw lots of lady bugs, princesses, and of course the Incredible Hulk. All in all, we had a pretty low key, but fun Halloween!
Matt, Daisy and I before we started passing out candy

I also wanted to get on to say...
Only 22 more days till it all begins! I'm not counting down or anything ;)

I never thought of myself as someone who would have a blog. In the beginning, I was writing this blog mainly because I was missing my family, and I wanted to keep them updated on the things going on in my life away from them. Then when Matt and I got diagnosed with infertility, I started researching with all of my free time. I ran in to a lot of different blogs, written by women who are dealing with the same thing we are. That is when I decided I wanted to start writing my blog based on what we are going through infertility wise. I guess I am just hoping that maybe somebody will stumble upon this page while doing research, and it will help them in some way.

I never thought I would get such a big response to this blog. I was very hesitant to post my blog on Facebook, or Instagram, just because I was afraid I might get a negative response...but the opposite has happened. People that I never even thought would be interested, are emailing me telling me how much they love reading my posts. I am getting comments from strangers telling me they are praying for me, and friends from high school who are telling me how proud they are of the decisions we've made. It warms my heart to know that so many people care about us. We had no idea that we would get so much love and support form everybody around us. The next two months are going to be exciting, emotional, and hopefully end with a positive outcome, and I can't wait to share it with all of you guys. As for the next three weeks, I am constantly watching the clock and the calendar, wishing the start date would just hurry up and get here! Here's to hoping I don't go crazy patiently waiting ;)

Until Next Time!
