My yard and garden

I have 4 tomato plants.

See the little zucchini?

The plant looks a little sad, but I love the purple blossom of the eggplant.

My first picked veggies! They were spicy!


Not good

Good!

PCOS

If you haven't read my previous post, you might want to as it will make this post make sense.
I'm glad I went to the fertility Doctor.. What he said is that I have PCOS- Polycystic Ovary Syndrome. I won't go into details as its really just not attractive, but it all makes sense. I have almost all of the symptoms. One of the biggest side effects of it is infertility. But the hope is that with medication I will be able to get pregnant. So onto this little chapter of our lives, I see the Dr again on the 17th, so I will be able to ask more questions. I looked online (I know its probably not a good idea :)) But from what I read its not terrible but there are a lot of problems not only for your everyday life, but trying to get pregnant, while you are pregnant and for your baby. Things like more likely to get Type 2 diabetes pregnant or not. Higher risk for heart attack, and other womanly issues. I'm trying to just be calm about it, apparently the medicine seems to work for a lot of woman so hopefully it will for me too.
I had a great convention of course, was great to hear everyone (including my sister!) and to see everyone also. It was pretty cold, so I spent a lot of time in Mom and Dads trailer!

Emotional..

WARNING- BIG EMOTIONAL MESS AHEAD! ;)
I am not good at keeping my own secrets.. I'm not a very private person. If I'm feeling an emotion, its pretty easy for me to let it out. Today my 2nd cousins wife died. She was 30, has 3 young girls. I did not know her well, but have really appreciated her and her husband's faith in God. They know,knew that God has a plan for them. They had faith in that plan. I wonder what Gods plan is for me? I have a daughter who is 3 years old. She is amazing, but yet so frustrating at times. Some days I wonder, can I handle any more children? The truth of it all is that maybe that's all I'm going to have.
Yesterday I was at my in-laws. There were 4 woman there including me. My sister in law, my mother in law, a family friend and myself. Both the sis in law and friend are pregnant. People were telling me that Camilla needs a brother or a sister. I know she does, I really wish that she could. But my body is not cooperating. Like I said, I'm not good at keeping my own secrets. I'm not looking for sympathy,I just like to tell things the way they are. As the days go on with no results, I wonder how do people get over not being able to have a child or any more children? I can't let it overwhelm me with sadness or grief.
I believe in Gods plan. Jessi believed in Gods plan, she knew that her children would be safe in Gods hands after she passed. I need to trust in his plan for all things.
These last few weeks have been so emotional for me, I feel like this post is half crazy. I feel like its time to just move on with life and focus on Camilla. But like I said I'm not good at keeping secrets.. I need to just get it out.
The other day I put on a dress to go to a funeral and Camilla said My Mommy is pretty! My heart melted, she is SO amazing to me. I love her spirit of loving me even though some days it feels like all I do is tell her no.
Convention is in a few days. In fact I'm missing Weds and most of Thurs to go to a fertility Doctor.. Is it a waste of time? I made the appt months ago, not realizing the date. Is there hope, or should I just cancel it and get a full convention?
I never thought I would be here, but here I am. I can't wait for convention. I know it will be SO good for me.

My wish for her, a happy life.

Nature and 4-wheelers

Just a day at Mom and Dads. Camilla is a natural country girl, isn't afraid of getting dirty and jumping on the 4wheeler!
