I believe in miracles - ours is named Milo Griffin!
My husband and I were married on October 7, 2006 and began TTC our first child in May of 2007. We thought it would be easy but boy were we wrong! I am a 7th grade English teacher, I run my own certified home daycare center, and I coach competitive cheerleading and volleyball. We are the proud parents to two fur babies, Mya and Lola - our spunky beagles!
Started TTC in May of 2007
Maqrch 2011 - our first adoption fell through tragically....going to give IVF a shot!
***IVF - June 2011 - BFN :(

Hey! I'm just checking in with you....how has everything been going? How has Milo been feeling? Did you have a Happy 1st Mother's Day??? We had lots of fun! Kailey and I had waffles for breakfast together and then when Ryan woke up later ( he worked the night before) we went out to eat with my mom and sister and brother-in-law! Then we enjoyed the sunshine and just relaxed.......do you know what this weekend is??? It's Kailey's 1st birthday party on Saturday!!! How can this be already???? I'm enjoying her so much that the time is just flying by. Its both sad and happy! They aren't kidding when they say the time just flies are they? So any fun summer plans yet?

I love Milo's new pic in your journal entry! How's things going? How's being back at work? I remember feeling sad and unhappy about it but Kailey loves daycare and all the little kids yell when she gets there..."kailey's here" lol it's super cute! I've been taking some online courses. Its been going pretty good but usually I wait till after she goes to bed...so its been a challenge and rather slow paced but will be worth it!

Lucky you! That's very soon! And Milo will be such a perfect age to take outside and go swimming or the beach etc!! The weather is finally getting warmer here, thank God! We've been walking everyday and today we even got to go to the park!! It was 8Celcius and sunny (which is beautiful here lol). Memorial Day is just around the corner!! Hope you don't plan too much and get to have some serious family time- I'm sure you've noticed: it FLIES!!
