Just Breathe

Just Breathe


I had an ultrasound and blood work today as we get ready for our frozen embryo transfer (FET). This morning as the phlebotomist was taking my blood I noticed her tattoo "JUST BREATHE!" The prayer Ryan said before we left our house on May 17, 2016 for the FET of our Magnolia, was "JUST BREATHE!" It was a simple prayer, and the song "Just Breathe" by Willie Nelson was our song for our journey to her. After our transfer in 2016, I was wheeled back to our room & the doctor's office music started to play "Breathe" by Anna Nalick. Our prayer played above our heads the moment we got back to our room!!! I'll never forget how Ryan's eyes instantly teared up as we felt God working miracles in our lives and sending us signs of peace + hope + love.

My friend Mandee, with Mandee Reid Photography, came over Saturday afternoon to take some photos of Magnolia in our home. The sun was shining bright, Mandee was working her magic behind the camera, and Magnolia loved being the subject of the day. It was a BEAUTIFUL DAY. Now I have all these incredibly special photos to cherish forever. I love them all so much, but the detailed shot she took of Magnolia's six year old hands - still with dimples in them - will forever mean so very much to me.

*** NOW TO THE GOOD PART ***

Mandee is offering $200 MINI SESSIONS for the month of April! You can book now and schedule anytime in April at a place of your choice, including your home. Highly recommend YOUR HOME where all the love + magic + memories happen. You will get 10-12 high resolution photos.

Magnolia is SIX!!!

Magnolia is SIX!!!


Magnolia turned SIX years old on the third. She had a Ballerina Bath Bomb birthday party at Buff City Soap with her cousins and dance + neighbor friends. It was the most fun party we have ever had. On her actual birthday she wanted to control the day, basically a YES DAY, and from the moment she woke up until bedtime she was in charge. It was a blast for me too and I made a reel on Instagram if you want to see little pieces of our day. I feel like so much has happened in this month of February. She went with me to almost all of my IVF appointments and we are so grateful to have one frozen embryo. Her very first tooth fell out! All three of her dances took first place at her very first dance competition of the season. It's been a very fun and blessed month!!!

IVF Miracle Update

IVF Miracle Update


We got the call yesterday afternoon while the whole entire city was celebrating our Chiefs THE World Champions. We have one PERFECT frozen embryo!!! Imagine all the confetti thrown at the parade and multiply it by one million, that's how much our hearts are celebrating. 

The embryologist referred to our embryo as high quality and perfect several times. It was so hard to hold in the tears as my voice was trembling talking to her about the next steps.
