Happy Thanksgiving!

I am still here.

The last few weeks have been a whirlwind and I am finally feeling caught up. I passed my ACLS class and test-thank you god. It was quite hellish and I hope I never have to do that again. I have quit acupuncture and am taking a break from this whole baby making thing. I feel like the holidays need to be spent focusing on the wonderful blessings that I do have, and not focusing and what I don't have. In other news Ry and I booked a trip to Hawaii! I can't wait to go somewhere warm. I absolutely love having something like this to look forward to. Now I need to focus getting in bikini shape, YIKES!

Happy Halloween from Captain Rossi!

Busy Bee!

Sorry the blog has been quite boring lately, I have been soooo busy. We have been preparing for another vintage sale and just had one a couple of weeks ago. The sale is November 7th at Nine Mile Falls Elementary and there will be some great vendors there. I am not able to attend due to a work class/test (sheds a little tear).  I also have been studying for a lovely little test called ACLS- advanced cardiovascular life support. Doesn't that just sound like a basket of puppies kind of test? Needless to say my stress level has been consistently high for about a month now. Things will get better after this doozy of a test is over (cross your fingers I pass!)

Woo Hoo!

The Seahawks have finally won a game. My husband is happy again.

1 year.

I have reached the one year mark and I can't believe I am writing this post.  I have been writing about our journey to have a baby for the last year and not posting the entries. I had written one where I stated that if I reached the one year mark I would finally publish them. Here are the secret blog entries! They start after this post with the oldest, which I think I wrote in December 2008 and go from there.  I have read through all of them and realized through this process that my patience's has really grown. In the first few post I am very impatient, and looking back on it maybe that is supposed to be my lesson.  I believe that you can learn from every experience and I have learned so much about myself and our marriage. I believe that Ry and I have built a stronger marriage and friendship from our last year.  It may take a while to reach our goal, but it will be so much sweeter when we get there! Thanks for reading my story.

My hopefully soon to be public post.

There are some things that I have not been able to share on my blog, because I know my family checks it frequently. This is a topic that has taken over my sanity lately, it is called baby fever. My husband and I have been trying for a baby for three months now and none of our family knows. I need to vent about it and I can't. I will publish this post and some other ones when we do get pregnant and want everyone to know. Sometimes it just feels good to let things out and thats what I am doing. It really bothers me how so many people can accidently get pregnant. I just don't get it! Here I am ready to have a baby, financially, emotionally, physically, and mentally, but no baby. I know everything happens for a reason and my time will come, but it is hard to patient when this is something R and I want so bad. I pray all the time that this process goes smoothly and doesn't take to long. If someone has a crystal ball that they would like to lend me that would be great. Thanks for letting me vent.
