Ashton was baptized!

I just so wanted to break down and cry tears of joy. I truly never felt like we would ever have our miracle and here he is already 3 months old. He was wide awake for the service and when it was time to get baptized he fell asleep. Terri our minister didn't want to give him back! It was all so beautiful.

This is Carl and I and Robin and Darren. They are Ashton's God parents. While we were saying our vows to God and Ashton, I just kept thinking of "Wow, We did this 9 years ago for them!" Courtney so wanted to be there. She was so upset that she couldn't come. She got Fifth's disease and wasn't allowed to attend. She was crying to me on the phone last night. She has been calling herself his God sister since she found out he was a boy! We have it on video for her to watch and at the end of the service our minister had everyone shout Hello to Courtney so she would know that we were thinking of her.

Ashton's 3 month old photo!

Boy is time flying with him! I can't believe he is 3 months old. Well as of today 3 months and 3 days. I couldn't get him to smile for the camara. He kept staring at it!

Busy week!! Sorry for no updates!

I went and saw my RE Dr last Tuesday. I saw him cause I was still bleeding from birth. I talked to him on the phone the week before. I was still passing parts of the placenta. He did an u/s and everything is ok now that I had af. There is still a little something in there but he thinks since I had af and am not bleeding anymore that it will pass on its own. He gave me Provera to regulate my cycles on my own. He said I could take it every 2 months if I wanted to. (Has to be every 2) He is such a great Dr! He went over a Frozen Embryo Transfer with me so that I would know and be ready when I am ready!! LOL I am ready now! LOL I love being a mommy and can't wait to have another miracle. IF God only grants me one I am fine with that but a second would be even better! I feel greedy wanting another when I know so many women still trying for their first and not having any luck. I have 9 frozen embryos that I think need a chance at living.

Carl's sister and brother-in-law are in from Florida so I haven't been able to get on the computer much. This is the first time that Smitty has seen Ashton. He works in Afghanistan as an outside contractor on an American base. Carl is thinking about going over there for a year and working so that I can be a stay at home mommy. I am worried about this cause he will miss so much. All of the firsts! It is great money yes but is the risk and missing so much really worth it? I really don't think so.

This is Ashton on his first day of work! LOL He goes with my sister on Thurs. so that I can get some sleep. My sister works for my Dad so it is ok! He has been stinking up the office now for 3 weeks! Never fails if I need him to go all I have to do is send him to work. He is always so tired when he gets home. Work is so stressful!
