Our New Additions

For most that know me, know that I am not nuts over animals. I had a dog, Tramp, when I was little and when he died I never got to attached to pets again. Sure there is some deep meaning behind it all but for me there has never been another dog like Tramp. Well, enter marriage and my husband who has a dog, Mattie. She is a black lab and I must say a pretty sweet and good dog. I have even found myself...me know...taking her for a walk. Well on Friday she had puppies! To our surprise a couple of months ago the neighbors dog, thankfully another black lab paid her a visit, and well here we are. We have 5 little puppies. What we are going to do with them, we don't know. Several people have said they want one so we feel we won't have any trouble getting rid of them. Like I said, we have 5 total....2 yellow, 1 black and 2 chocolate. She is a good little momma and now Jeff and family are teasing me about the dog. Well for goodness sake people, I never said I hated them (except little ones that yep all the time)...I just never got to attached to another again. But I must admit they are pretty cute and she is pretty good little dog.....hahaha!

Rambles and Results

I finally got the results, well guess it wasn't really that long but felt like it, from the doctor on the blood work. Everything came back normal (laugh there) but my testeone levels are a little high. SO, back to the doctor I go this coming Monday for an ultrasound. She wants to make sure I don't have any cysts or other issues that could be effecting me getting pregnant. So far, I haven't been to worried, I mean I would LOVE a baby more than anything but I praying, doing what the doctor says and leaving it up to God. I wish I could understand how some people just seem to have them like breathing but that isn't for me to understand. I seem to have inherited my mother's issues of trouble getting pregnant BUT she must have gotten over them sometime, here my brother and I both are. SO, I have all the faith that I will too, someday.

Jeff and I just got back from a much needed vacation. We went to Las Vegas. Both he and I have been just worn out from work, which doesn't help the baby thing either, and this vacation could not have come at a better time. We had such a wonderful time visiting with family. Jeff learned and was very lucky at the craps table and now he is anxious to get back...great for me, I love to travel.

Being married for almost 5 months now has come with its set of challenges. I worry that sometimes I am way to controlling, to demanding, to bossy. We both realize that since we were older, more set in our ways and what we do for a living puts us in charge of things, it makes it hard sometimes at home to share. I wish I could change or help the situation more but I know that I am trying and that is all I can do. I love Jeff so much and don't ever want to loose what I have found. He is my prince. The most kind, generous, honorable man I have ever known and though the may not always believe me...I am very blessed and honored to be his wife.

doctors and more doctors

Well as you all know, Jeff and I are trying to have a baby. We decided to see a doctor this week just make sure everything was okay. Since I am 35, I know that can make it harder to have a child, but I believe in God and all he has in store for my life. He brought Jeff into my life and I know that one day, when the time is right a child will come too. My doctor is great and she decided to draw blood and check all my hormone levels so see how they are functioning. Also, I was given the name of another doctor to see in regards to my thyroid. THANK GOODNESS! My thyroid has been giving me fits on and off or years and finally a doctor says lets have it double and triple checked again! See proof...a prayer has been answered..hahaha! So, that is where we stand now, waiting for results and knowing that when the time is right, God will answer our prayer with our own little miracle.
