Wow...What a Surprise! What a Blessing!

Shhhh...don't share this yet. If you happen to stumble upon this, you are welcome to call or leave a post but don't tell anyone else yet. WE are pregnant!

God has answered our prayers and given me the desire of my heart! He is good and yes, this is a miracle! We should not be pregnant! I have taken two pregnancy tests (from two different boxes and at two different times) and both have two solid pink lines. I am 4 almost 5 weeks pregnant!

Our due date for those who can't read that small is December 8, 2009 (new date shown-officially changed as of April 28). Last Christmas I told John that as much as I loved it just being the two of us, I really didn't want to spend another Christmas with it just being the two of us. We will have a little one in time for Christmas! Isn't God's timing perfect? I could tell you my journey and how many more ways His timing is perfect! I probably will over the next few months!

If you are wondering how God did this, well, other than a lot of prayer, John has been seeing Dr. Wu for a few months specifically for our infertility and has been taking some yucky herbs daily ever since. I just started seeing her, as well, three weeks ago (before I ovulated). I last saw her on Tuesday and I am pretty sure she suspected. She asked me some weird questions, said something about women sometimes getting pregnant after only 1 or 3 treatments, and put more needles in me this time!
My total treatments so far is 5! :) Our first OB\GYN visit\ultrasound will be April 28! Maybe it will seem be more real by then.

Despite that, it has been killing me not to get on the phone to everyone I know and let them know of this miracle. John is cautiously optimistic and just as surprised. I just came out of the bathroom last night shocked and told/showed him and started crying in his arms. I was so keyed up I had hard a very hard time falling asleep. And as far as today, I can't seem to stop smiling.

P.S. This is NOT an April Fool's joke!

Just to be recent...

I have always been a late comer to these types of forums. I do love reading people's blogs...I just don't every feel like I have anything exciting to share. John and I don't have children yet...and we work a lot!
I guess I will use this forum to share some thoughts I have in the course of my day-to-day life. If anyone could see inside my head and hear my thoughts, I think they would run screaming so I will tone it down.

I contemplate a wide range of things. Deep, heavy stuff like life, my purpose in life, my relationship with God, my marriage to fun and light stuff like our future children, diets/exercise, books, movies, winning the lottery and becoming the world's newest philanthropist. So I expect until we have kids, my blog will be a hodge podge of topics. If someone reads them, great. If not, well, I have a online diary! :) I don't even know if anyone knows about this blog.

I will try to stay current and punch it with photos as I can. In fact, here is one of my favorite pictures.

Okay, so we don't have a zoo right now. A few years ago, John and I had six cats and a dog and future plans for kids. Unfornately, we lost some of our furry friends since then and now just have two kitties, Boo and Samantha (Sam). We're trying to increase our numbers again with non-furry members first, so took this blog's name...

It has always been my dream to have a household of kids and pets! Thankfully, John seems okay with that idea.
