As you may have guessed......

As you all may have gotten from my many facebook hints we are trying to have another baby. We are starting to try for another set of 10 fingers and 10 toes to warm our lives and home. We want to make a Hope a big sister more than anything right now.




Yes we are ready for Hope to be a GREAT big sister.






We REALLY want a little boy




But would LOVE a little girl just as much

We know that 2 children will be at times rough. We are as ready as we will ever be. If we continue to wait will we ever be ready? We know Hope will make a GREAT big sister. She loves to ply with her baby dolls especially her Baby Alive that she can feed and it talks to her when she is done. She loves to push her babies around the house. Yes we are grateful for the one healthy child we have after 3 year of infertility and trying, 1 round of iui, a high risk pregnancy and a premature delivery at 35 weeks. We wouldn't trade a day we have lived the last 5 years for anything but our family just isn't complete with out at least trying for another baby. I understand all my family and friends may not support us but the timing and such are right in our lives for us to try and add another baby to our home. We were hoping my poor broken body was fixed after a pregnancy but we were not so lucky. We haven't been on birth control for 5 months now and still no pregnancy. We will start with a different set of medicine and road before we venture back down the road to Plano and Reproductive Endo and many test and iui's again. We are hoping and praying that the pregnancy with Hope did at least help straighten things out hormonally with my body and all we will need is just a little nudge from the meds to get things going. We understand all of you may not support us but we ask that you do not send negative comments to us or post negative things on our profile/blog, If you choose not to support us we ask that you keep it to yourself and not be negative. We only ask for your prayers if you do not support us and prayers and positive words if you do. We are hoping that this time around is much shorter than last to get us a positive pregnancy test. I hope everyone has a great weekend and check back soon for more updates and picture...

Christmas 2010

We host the family Christmas breakfast every year. This year my cousins came up from Dallas and my other cousin came over. We enjoyed monkey bread, sausage balls and making memories while opening gifts. Here are a few photos for you to enjoy. Hope got lots of great gifts including the Weebles tree house, a Beauty and the Beast 4-wheeler, a recorded story book from her papa and many clothes from her papa and grandma Linda and  great grams. Happy Holidays everyone..

 Happy Holidays everyone. I hope you all got what you wanted, wished and prayed for in 2010 and I hope 2011 brings you memories.I'm hoping for changes in my family and that we will soon welcome another little one in to our lives.I'm looking forward to creating memories and capturing them for all to see and for Hope to grow up looking back on as we start 2011.

Here are the photos from our Christmas photo session.

They haven had pictures of just them since they were engaged in 2005. Wow 5 years and boy have they grown up alot in that time. Here are some of my favorites of them. Thanks to Stormy at Perfect Moments Photograpy for taking the photos..

ICE! We Froze Charlie Brown at The Gaylord Texan Hotel

So the sunday after thanksgiving we loaded up and headed about a hour south of home to see this amazing ice diaplay. Here is the hotel website display inforamtion to follow will be some pictures of our day.

The awe-inspiring ICE!™ attraction — carved from 2 million pounds of ice — will for the first time showcase A Charlie Brown Christmas by Charles Schulz! Additionally, Lone Star Christmas at Gaylord Texan will provide a winter wonderland including 1.5 million holiday lights, a 52-foot rotating Christmas tree, a life-sized Gingerbread House, 12,000 ornaments, and Santa Claus himself, just to name a few. We invite you to enjoy a magical holiday experience your family won’t soon forget!
ICE! will be created by dozens of artisans who migrate to the Dallas / Ft. Worth area each year from Harbin, China to craft this elaborate attraction out of nearly 2 million pounds of ice. It takes them nearly an entire month of 12-hour shifts to transform the refrigerated tent where the exhibit is held into a remarkable icy wonderland.

NO we do not own matching jackets. They provide you with them.

Thanksgiving 2010

We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with lots of family. Started out with lunch at home with mom,dad,nana,and some of my cousins..

We enjoyed lots of food and some fun and even put up the Christmas tree.. 

Here are some pics from the day

Family is all full from lunch

Mom was fluffing the tree branches

After a short nap we headed on over to Jordan's side of the family for the yearly family dinner. They dont celebrate holidays so its not called Thanskgiving dinner. Again we ate lots of food,I got lots of loving on by my mimi, aunts and uncles. All in all it was a great day and we have so much to be thankful for this year and many more to come.Hope everyone had a great day with family and lots of food.
