Internet Inspiration

This is a new thing for me. I find my daily life has a little kick in its step and lots of new and exciting ideas are flowing. Its like last year when I learned to crochet and sew. I found a piece of my heart that I didnt know existed! I am finding the same thing with internet inspiration. Pinterest is a HUGE contributer!! and now all these blogs! How did I live before!! =) I am starting to get pathetically organized and I have Major Ideas for when we move!!

Dearest Baby,
   You are in for it!! In a good way I hope =) I have so much inspiration and Ideas! Now lets see what I can make come to to life! I have a secret confession... I have bought you a few things.... just as motivation! and I am going to be making burp rags. I couldn't resist it was 1.50 for the entire yard of fabric. Your MiMi also bought you something... if you are a girl... but more or less that will be used for my sewing design! It will be cute baby shower gifts if I choose not to keep them... but I think I will be putting this in your hope chest =)

Love,
Your Dearest Mommy

Inspirational Blogs

I have been searching other peoples infertility blogs. I want to follow other infertile turtles (as my sis and I call ourselves) and I found mostly infertile turtles that GOT PREGO!! I ran across only a couple that still have not had kids. This is inspiring. I also ran across a few that were insanely sad. But I can just feel it in the air like God has whispered to me. I will meet my baby one day.

Dearest Baby,
     I know its true. I know I will meet you! I am going to bed tonight with my heart filled with hope and love for you!

Love,
Your Dearest Mommy

Portion Control and Calorie Counting

Portion Control and Calorie Counting.....
This is horrible!! I hate it! I am such an over eater! Day 1 I am here! and I can do this!! This is a tool for success. And to live the life I want to live! God be with me! I cannot do this with out you!

Dearest Baby,
   I hope that by me being healthier it will make a healthier you! When you are growing inside me you need to be as healthy as can be! I also want to be a good example to you. So you may not have to go through these struggles.

Love,
Your Dearest Mommy

Walking and Meditation

I started today what I hope will become a habit. I started walking, and praying at the same time. It was pretty amazing! I know I know its getting cold out... am I setting myself up for failure?? Well if I just get out and walk around the block that is better than nothing!!

Dearest Baby,
   These walks and prayers are for you. I pray for strength and gratitude and to better my life and be a better person. This will make me a better mother to you. I pray you will come. I pray I will meet you.

Love,
Your Dearest Mommy

A letter to my Baby

Dearest Baby,
     This is for you. You do not know me or your Dad yet. But one day through God's Grace you will. I wanted to write to you. So you know the journey we are taking to get to you. I will one day be your mother. I will one day hold you. I will one day love you. I will one day teach you. I will one day play with you. I will one... You see, unlike most moms and dads our journey is taking a little longer. I have what is called PCOS. I have known since high school. March of 2007 I told your Dad that it will be very difficult for me to have children. We decided right then and there, that we would try for you. September 10th 2010 I went to the doctor for doctors help to try for you. I began my real journey that day. It has not been easy. I have failed many things many times. The medication upsets my stomach, and I struggle with losing weight and changing my eating habits. Our life has changed 360 degrees in the last 5 years. We are much healthier people and much more responsible. I found a stronger path with God as well. It is through my ever growing relationship, that I know I will one day have you to hold and to love. I just have to wait for Gods perfect timing. As I wait I will write to you. A way to keep motivation and focus. After all that is what matters. not how sick the meds make me. Not measuring my successes or failures. Nothing but you my dearest baby. I have received some good news a couple of days ago!! The new meds from last month worked for having a normal cycle! I think we are getting closer! I know it is Gods miracle! You will be Gods miracle! You will be loved my dearest baby! We have an AWESOME family!!!! Your Dad is very worried you will never be here. He says he hurts about it sometimes. I cannot wait until you can meet your Dad. He will love you more than anything. I know his secrets his secret desires to be a Dad. You will love him too. You will have fun with him. And when no ones looking he LOVES to cuddle. He will do anything for those he loves. He is one of the most faithful people you will ever know. He loves his family. You will have AMAZING grandparents. They are all cheering for you to get here, and meet you. They already have a special place in their hearts for you. Even though you are not here. We will remember this journey and cherish this journey. No matter how hard it may be. It is for the better. This path is meant to be.
Love,
Your Dearest Mommy
