Waiting...

We got our results back from the endometrial biopsy today and it looks like we'll be waiting some more. It turns out that the lining is still out of phase. The medicine I took last month did some good but it didn't completely fix the problem. The plan is for us to alter the medicine some this month and repeat the biopsy in four weeks to see if it worked.

On a better note, here's a new picture of Belle. We love her so much!!!!!

Isabel's Day

I couldn't get through this day without talking about our sweet little girl, Isabel Faye Lee. We met her for the first and only time one year ago today as she left us to be with Jesus. We miss her so much but we look forward with hope to the day we will be with her forever.

Update

As some of you already know, David and I also had two miscarriages before and after Isabel. Because of that, my dad recommended that we see a fertility specialist for recurrent miscarriage. It turned out to be a good idea because after a month of testing, they discovered that my endometrial lining was "out of phase". This finding probably explains the two miscarriages as well. The good news is that this is treatable!

Over the past month I have been on a medicine that should help improve my lining and thus a more successful pregnancy. As of last week, the doctor was optimistic and hopeful that this had helped. We will know for sure after May 13th. I will have another endometrial biopsy to see if the lining is now "in phase". Please continue to pray for us!! We are so excited and hopeful this will be the last step in this long process and that we will be blessed with a baby that we can raise.

Thank you all for loving us and supporting us over these difficult two years. Your prayers and encouragement have helped us so much!

Keaton Beach Fishing 5/2 - 5/3

I headed south by myself after work Friday to see if the bite was on. I made great time and arrived in 3 hours 40 minutes. I was fishing with a friend from Americus and his kid so I did not have to put my boat in the water. I stopped by and checked on her though, she looked real lonely.

We were on the water Saturday morning amidst the fleet of boats for the Optimist Tournament. We didn't fish the tournament but got the privilege of many boats riding through our drifts all day. We headed to spot one and immediately hooked up with the fish. The bite was real strong in the morning and kinda petered out in the afternoon. We probably caught 150 fish between KW, AW and me. We ended up with 15 nice fish by the end of the day with the largest being 24". There were many trout that were 14.99" that made it back in the water. Most of our trout were 16.5' - 18". The weather was awesome, around 80 with a 10 knot south wind. The water was around 75 degrees and clear to slightly stained.

Sunday was going to be a quick day. On the water by 7:30 and planned to be off by 10. We went back to the same spot we started at on Saturday. We immediately started picking up fish. The crazy thing was there were no shorts biting like on Saturday. Almost every hook up was a keeper. KW and I picked up 9 nice keepers between 16" - 19" by 10. I thought it was a pretty good trip. I enjoyed it Wille.

Our newest member to our family

This is Belle. She is an English Lab that we got from a breeder in Mississippi. She will be 12 weeks on Sunday May 3rd. Her color is known as a "fox red", but it really is a dark shade of yellow.

Hopefully, she will be a great hunter. She is already making double retrieves for her daddy.
