Well today was our first visit with my OBGYN, who is also taking us through the fertility steps. So far, she seems hopeful. Today was mostly just talking. She told me that since my cycle is kinda crazy, always has been, could be tough as far as trying to find when my fertile days are (an easy thing to work with as long as we can find those day)... (TMI for some of you, I know, Im sorry).
Anyways, thats factor one. Factor two could be Zech. Yes, its always requested to get the male "checked" also. Its harder to fix a fertility problem in men than it is women. But we're hoping thats not the case... I mean come on, Zech is one of 6... and his dad is one of 9... no fertility problems there LOL!!
I have to go back for blood work on Wednesday to have a bunch of tests done. So as long as its nothing with Zech, and nothing comes back negative with my tests, my Dr is going to do something called an HSG. Its basically where they "cleanse" my repo-organs. Harsh sounding, I know, but sorry again! Its just basically to make a fresh start.
Zech and I both are praying that its an easy fix. I really love my OBGYN, she has a really level head about her, and wants to go all natural ways before we start jumping into all sorts of treatments. We are hoping that we can get this taking care of before our move to Houston so I can stay with her.
Keep thinking of us. We are excited to finally get things on a roll, and hopefully we will have some super happy POSITIVE (*wink wink*) news soon!

ANXIOUS!
So I know a lot of people would just tell me to take it easy, to just take it as it comes... But I cant help but get worked up. August is half-way done. On the 31st I have a doctor's appointment with a fertility specialist. We've been trying since January to get pregnant. Zech and I are both ready now. I guess God has other plans. Im scared to hear what they could say at the end of the month. I know our choices for adoption are always there. We've always said we want to adopt either way. Might turn out thats our only option.
Everything thats been going on lately doesnt make this situation/problem any better. I just want to cry all the time.

Randomosity...
Well here I am, at work, as always... Trying to not lose my mind. Oh trust me, I have plenty of work to do. That doesnt always mean I want to do it.
So anyway... Zech and I have been making plans about the upcoming months. They include many many things. First, and foremost, we want to extend an invitation to all close friends & family to make the drive to Killeen this year for Thanksgiving. I know its a bit out of the way, but Zech and I have missed the last 3 sets of holidays together and we have decided we would like to host it at our house this year, to do something special. We have more than enough room (finally) to have a good handful of people over. This could be the last time for a while that we actually have a large enough house to do anything.
We are also hoping that sometime closer to the end of the year we can take a mini-vacation. We are thinking either of our orginal plans of taking a cruise, or flying to Georgia to go see my cousin. I think we are starting to lean more towards the latter of the two ideas just because it would be easier on our savings. Im excited either way.
Zech is starting to make more progress on his transition out of the Army. Its been tough the last couple of months with about 3-4 other NCO's leaving or getting out as well. It leaves Zech picking up a lot of the slack and taking a lot of the time he needs to take his classes and do his necessary paper work to get out. But things are moving along slowly but surely. He is still scheduled to get out in mid- to late-November. We wont be moving to Houston until January still, but this gives me time to work overtime through the holidays here at the college in Killeen.
We are going to Houston next month to start looking at housing, to take a tour of the UTI campus, and to just scope out the area for jobs and such. From there, we will drive down to Corpus Christi to see my new baby nephew who is due in the next couple weeks! I am so excited to be an aunt times two!!
Well thats about it for now, I thought I would just write a few random things!
