 Sheesh it has been FOREVER since I have blogged last! I think about doing it often. I will be going through something in life that might be tough and I will have great intention to blog about it. Or I will be doing a fun craft with Rylee and I will think how it would be so fun to blog about it. I usually ALWAYS take pics of whatever I am doing with her. But for some reason I never end up blogging about it.

So I thought I would check in and write about the latest things in life. I think since my last blog we have moved. Me and Aj have moved over 10 times in the 11 years we have been married. and this was by far the hardest move. This was our first move with a child. In the past I would be able to just put things away at my own pace, but this time I was at the mercy of my 4 year old. She does play by herself every once in awhile. But for the most part she likes to be with her mama. So I did my best to play with her while unpacking. I would say that I got frustrated more than usual, it was pretty overwhelming for me to meet her needs and try and put everything away. Praise the Lord though we all survived it and we are pretty settled in our new place!




Another big thing that has happened since I wrote last is that I had a surgery to see if I had Endometriosis. Which for most people they would never want to have that. But I have been struggling with fertility issues for the last 10 years. And so far my doctors have always told me that I am healthy and that there was nothing wrong. I kept feeling like there was so I finally took the leap and seeked a fertility doctor. This was a great decision for us! He has been so wonderful and very helpful. He felt like I had a few signs for Endometriosis. And the only way to find out if I had it was to go in surgically, and if it was there then he said he could fix it while in there. I just had the surgery 2 weeks and 2 days ago and I did end up having it and I had a pretty sever case of it. I did not have a lot of it, but what I did have was VERY deep and I most likely have had it for years. When I heard that I was so excited!! I knew there was something wrong and I knew that he could fix it!! I believe so strongly that God can work his miracles through his own hands or through the hands of a doctor. And I was just praying that he would do either option. So right now I am feeling the continued hope that he is going to bless us with more babies!! He is so faithful and so good to us!! I know he has good plans for us. That leads me to the next thing I want to share.....

Missions. I have been writing on here for years about my heart for missions. We have not left yet and are not sure when we will leave. But I feel like God is still brewing in our hearts. And I believe FULLY thay he has still called us in this way. So we are praying about some new directions we think he might be sending us! I can't wait to hear from him and hear his plans for us. Right now I feel like we are not living in his FULL blessing. I believe he has more for us and that it will happen when we head in his direction and his will!

Thanks for taking the time to read this. I really do hope to become more consistent with blogging. I was even thinking about trying to blog more about food and crafts. We will see if I can do it! I sure love when I sit down to write. It is so therapeutic and feels so good to get out all my thoughts! I hope you have a blessed week and thanks for checking my blog out!



XOXO,
Amy

Aubrey and I have moved often in our years together, but never with a kid. I can only imagine how hard that must be! But Rylee is such a sweet girl that I can picture her patience with the process.

I"m so glad you were able to find an answer for your fertility issues and I pray that the worst is behind you! You're already a wonderful mama and any child would be blessed to be able to call you mommy.
