More from the New Year

Well I finished my 4th semester of school! I have 4 left now! Half way done! I am stoked about getting done this much, I want to quit, but I am gonna keep on going! Lol.

It has been an interesting year so far and we have been having the most fun that we can.

We bought a townhouse! Yay for us! So we have a nice big back yard, an electric fence, and tons of fun! We can leave our dogs out all day and they won't go anywhere. We can go out and BBQ and entertain and we absolutely love it!

Jesse (our baby..puppy) is about 8 or 9 months old now. She is getting so big and soon will dominate in the "play fighting" with Ellie. It is so fun to watch them! They LOVE to be outside, even when it snows. There are 5 dogs behind us and they have found their way into our yard from under the fence! Oh well, not our dogs! :) Jesse loves to greet them!

Ellie is a year and a half. She isn't growing anymore, but isn't maturing either! Lol. She is still a youthful energetic puppy and plays more than Jesse! The two together are adorable, and they are so inseperable. I love it!

My mommy and Danie came out to visit for a week. My mom was looking for a job out here so that they can FINALLY move!!! YAY! It was so fun having them. Because of my mom I am trying some new food dishes. It is fun. I love cooking, and I had a great teacher! I can't wait until they move out here so that I can see the whole family more often! It was definitely a blast having them, and I am so glad they came!

One of the dishes I made

Basil Orange Chicken

Still trying to get pregnant, the time will come when it is our time. No rush. Can't wait though! Until then I have been enjoying my sleep, my nieces and nephews, and my hubby. <3>

January 26th 2010

Well 2010 started and we were so excited for the BIG news! Yes Pregnant.

We were very excited when we found out (New Years Eve) that we were going to have a baby!

As exciting as it was our first doctors appointment was January 25th, and were kind of nervous to go and hear the baby's heart beat.

January 25th came, no heart beat. We were very nervous and scared about what was going to happen. The doctor sent us to go to get an ultra sound the next morning to see the baby and make sure everything was okay.

Tuesday morning we woke up and headed off to the doctors again. The nurse didn't say anything to us except "are you sure about the time of your last menstrual cycle?" and left the room. When she returned she told us we needed to go over and talk to our doctor. We walked across the parking lot, waited in the room for the doctor. The doctor walked in and immediately told us that we had a fetal demise, which means miscarriage. I immediately broke into tears. Our little baby didn't have any cardiac movement. Unfortunately the baby didn't make it.

To make matters worse, I miscarried about the same time I found out I was pregnant. Therefore, I have been carrying the baby for four more weeks than I should have. Now I need to have surgery. They told me that I could have waited a little more to see if I would pass this myself, but I didn't want to. I wanted to get it over with as soon as possible. Wednesday morning I was in the hospital for my first surgery.

It is not easy hearing those words. But I know with all my heart that I will meet my baby sometime! Jake and I still love our baby so much and we will have children someday. As sad as it is for me to know that I am not pregnant anymore, I will be when the time is right. I am definitely excited for when the time comes.

I am still having some extreme pain, and so I have to have some more tests (maybe) to make sure that I don't have another pregnancy (an eptopic pregnancy). If that is the case, I will have to go back into surgery. The doctors seemed very hopeful and not concerned that this was the case (because it is VERY rare). So I am just keeping my head up and I am not going to worry about it. One day at a time.

I want to thank everyone for their prayers and thoughts. We truly appreciate it. I have been emotionally doing better than expected, I think it is because of my knowledge of life after death, and all the loving family and friends that I have. Life is precious, don't take it for granted. Enjoy every moment and every little thing that you have.

Oh, and HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY DANIELLE (January 26th!) Love you!

Also, HAPPY 30TH BIRTHDAY RACHEL! (January 31st!)
