32 Weeks and Where Were We A Year Ago.

A year ago I was recovering from my Endometriosis surgery, wandering what the future would hold for our chance of having a baby. I had a cyst taken out, a bad case of endometriosis, and a blocked tube. I was taking lupron shots to stop my period for what was supposed to be 6 months long, although after 4 months of torture with those shots I stopped them! 

You can read about my surgery here.

I cannot believe it's been a YEAR since my surgery. A year ago we did not know if we would be able to have kids on our own, more IUI's and shots and procedures were on our to do list, my body was wore out and miserable... and here we are today almost to the end of my pregnancy! 

 A miracle and a blessing indeed! 

 

{Treasuring} every moment!

This was technically taken yesterday-- This shirt is almost too short to wear anymore!

Wearing a dress=I look very large!! Haha! I got a lot of comments today when I wore this to work. :o)
