Unlucky me!

Sometimes I feel like I have shitty luck! Seriously, if something can go wrong...it will. In the last 5 weeks these are the things that have happened.

1. My water broke
2. Zoe passed away
3. Our car broke down when we got home from the hospital
4. Tim's student loan got all screwed up
5. Our ceiling leaks in the living room-land lord hasn't fixed it
6. Our car broke down again!
7. I got a speeding ticket the day my broke down for the second time

Hmmm...I know there is more but I just can't think of them! ha. Seriously, it is almost comical.

However I have had many beautiful things happen in my life, so I suppose it would only make sense to list those as well.

1. We met the most beautiful baby I have ever seen, our daughter
2. Our family and friends have been AMAZING!!!
3. Tim and I have grown and learned a great deal about each other and our selves.
4. I have met a group of people through a support group who are incredible and caring!
5. We are in the midst of buying a house
6. My car did get fixed for under $1000...I guess it could be worse
7. We hung out with old friends Mary and Brian! I LOVE THEM dearly!!
8. A group of family and friends are raising money for the March for babies in Honor of Zoe.

Sometimes my journey is difficult to understand. I think life is full of up's and downs and growth. None-the-less it can be a painful process. Hopefully the start of this year will be the end of my bad luck.

My Beta

So...my level today was 108!!! The nurse said that was a perfect, healthy number...not too high, not too low. Chances are good we have one little charm in there. Which is PERFECT. We won't know for sure until our u/s...but I have been thinking it's one...and a boy. I feel really connected to a little boy, and awhile ago, Zoe came to me in a dream and said we were going to get pregnant with one baby, a little boy, and things were going to be fine. :-) Sweet little baby of mine...comforting her momma even in spirit. It's strange to be pregnant right now...It doesn't feel real quite yet. It does, but it doesn't. I feel really secure about this pregnancy...almost at peace. I feel deep in my heart we are going to bring home a living baby. It's will be strange to be a mother of 2, one in spirit and one here on Earth. I love Zoelle so deeply, and miss her with each breath I take. I wish she was here to share in the joy of this new life. At the same time, the new life ...

Testing, testing,...1...2...3

So I couldn't resist!!! I tried! Yesterday morning I woke up at 4:30 with the urge! The urge to hopefully break our BFN streak and prove to be pregnant. Well, into the bathroom I went, gingerly tip-toeing across the hardwood, attempting to avoid waking up Tim. I slowing opened the home pregnancy test package, praying that what I have been expecting was true. There I was, starring at the test...waiting for the line to arrive (Where else to go during the wee hours of the morning...I was trying not to wake up Tim, or the pups downstairs!). Then it appeared, like a magic trick right before my very own eyes! The faintest of faint pink line. It was so faint, I thought for sure it wasn't real. I bursted back into the bedroom "Tim...Tim...are yo awake?" In reply "Kate, it's 4:30 in the morning, what the heck are you doing up?" "I just took a pregnancy test, there are TWO LINES!" Tim's first reply was "why are you testing already and why at 4:...

Our Rainbow!!!!!

Amazing...simply amazing. I am soaking up every moment. I am so thankful for our little girl. So...introducing River Zoelle Mirth 8 pounds, 11 ounces and 22 inches long!!! Labor was long, hard yet amazingly wonderful. 12 hours of labor and just over 3 hours of pushing (these are the things the docs don't tell you can happen!!!) But we did it!!! Our rainbow is finally here safely in our arms.
