The specialist!!!!!

So, all my co-workers and family have been trying to get me to go to an infertility specialist after this last miscarriage. So I called around and found a doctor who was supposed to be one of the best. I went to see him a couple of weeks ago.My intial impression was that he was awesome! He did a full work-up of tests on me and made me feel like we would find a reason, fix it, and not fail the next time. Unfortunately, all the tests came back fine! (I had about 20 different blood tests done). The nurse called me one morning and left a message about needing to talk to me right away. Then, the she didn't call me back for like a week. I finally got a hold of her yesterday, and she said that I might need a D & C, but that I could go to my regular doctor for that! Funny, since I had to get my records from him, and I am sure that he knew I went to another doctor! Then, last night, I got a bill for $128.00 for the office visit (not including lab work or ultrasound). And a friend of mine came into the clinic today who goes to my old doctor having the exact same lab work that I got from the new doctor! I just spent time and money to drive to SLC to get the same treatment! Yikes! Also the nurse told me on the phone "we recommend waiting a full year before becoming pregnant again". Those were the most devastating words I have ever heard besides "I'm sorry I don't see a baby."
P.S. I called the other dr. to get in with him and he is booked for next week!

3 Long, Wonderful Years!

So Jake and I have been married 3 years now! It has been so amazing! He even finally got me an anniversary card this year (and I forgot to get him one), which taught me to never give up on him! We had the best anniversary ever because we got to spend it with Brenlee! We went camping! My favorite! We figured out that she loves loves loves the water! It scared me to death. The river was really high, and she would just take off and try to jump in. I had to hold on to her the whole time. She is getting faster too! I was kind of a party pooper because I was sick, but we had the best time! I really want to tell anybody out there who is thinking about getting married or is just barely married to make it past that first year! Ours was really hard because we just had to many people pulling us in different directions, but we somehow resolved it, and now neither one of us could be happier. I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him!

Happy Mother's day to all our moms and grandmas!

Brenlee played in her pool all day, but I guess she didn't get enough because she figured out how to run through the sprinklers! Don't worry, it was house water and it was warm outside!
