One year ago today!!

"When the world says give up, Hope whispers, one more time."

One year ago today, Bill and I were getting ready for bed, reflecting on the day and thinking, boy I hope this works! I am very open about our fertility road and sometimes feel a little bit bitter that we have to travel it. However, the HOPE shines through it all and the HAPPINESS we feel because of God's grace and our sweet girl outshines all of it.
Sophie and Jillian are miracle babies. Sophie was our only fresh cycle baby while Jillian is our frozen baby :) One year ago today, we transfered Jillian. We were scared beyond belief! We knew this was it. If the transfer didn't work, we were done. Thankfully we kept our faith, had lots of prayer warriors and here we are today!
I can walk through every hour of that day, what we were doing, how we felt and who we saw. I remember the drive there and the drive home. We talked about what our life would be like one year later. We talked about how we would be attending Summerfest and Morgan's birthday. We talked about how we would be holding our 3 month old baby, wondering if we would have twins, if we would have a girl (s) or a boy (s). It was a time full of hope and trepidation.
NOW HERE WE ARE! We attended Summerfest today holding our 4 month old little girl (she was a little early) with our friend Shannon and her girls. Tomorrow we will go to Morgan's 2nd birthday party.
It is amazing what we have been through these past years and what we are dealing with now. Things, I never thought I could do. But I can, we can. Why? Because we are never alone. God carries us, walks with us and keeps us in his arms  always.

Our little lady is growing, giggling and a little gassy ;)

Jillian Josephine is the love of our lives and we are beyond thankful to have her with us!
