The Ingram’s – Our saying has always been when it’s right it’s right and when you know, you know. And we knew we were meant to spend a lifetime together immediately. We live on the TN river in Rogersville, AL, and are true to the core “river rats”. We absolutely love spending every minute possible in and on the water with friends and family, and we are very blessed that our families live close to us. We enjoy anything outdoors- wakeboarding, surfing, skiing, fishing, hunting, and traveling. But we also both share the same dream to have a family. I remember when we were doing our pre-martial counseling with our preacher that he asked us how many kids we wanted to have and we said 4. And yes we would still love a house full, and we still have hopes for 4. But it appears that we will be very blessed if we are able to have just one. So far we have experienced a very emotional and physical journey trying to see our dream of having children come true. But this is our story-The Ingram’s River Ride, and we wanted to have a way so that all of our friends and family from near and far could have a way to keep up with what was going on with our baby journey. So sit back and enjoy our “river ride”. I want to be sure and say first of all that if it wasn’t for the following I wouldn’t have made it through all of this # 1 God and the faith and hope he provides # 2 Jason– he is my rock- the love and care he gives me is so amazing to me and # 3 The love and support from SO MANY who we are blessed to call our friends and family from near and far. We are RICHLY blessed to have so many people who care about us and pray for us and please know that we are so grateful for each and every one of you. I have tried to go back and capture everything that has happened in the last year so I am sure I will forget some things. And I might as well apologize ahead of time if the blog seems as though a 4th grader is submitting the posts because I have a hard time putting my thoughts on paper and that along with my “kuntry lingo” should be interesting. :)




November 26, 2009 - Thanksgiving!

We have so much to be thankful for! Praise God we are very blessed indeed! We are still continuing the stim shots, and we go to the doctor about every other day for them to monitor my estrodial and progesterone and to monitor the growth of the eggs via ultrasound. The hardest part about this process so far has been keeping it a secret from Jason’s family. He wanted it to be a total surprise to them when it happens because we haven’t even told them we have been trying all this time. Its hard to believe that they haven’t noticed the many times we have left early in the mornings to go to b’ham to the doctor, all the times I’ve been sick due to the meds, or was on bedrest at certain times since we live beside each other. It was funny b/c they kept insisting that went to FL with them back during the summer and we had to give them some excuse like Jason couldn’t take off work b/c that was during the time we were doing one of the IUI’s. And that requires having to go to the doctor on short notice, so we had to pass up on the trip. But they just kept on and kept on trying to convince us to go.
