7 weeks and 1 day

So we had another appt with our IVF clinic!! Little bean is measuring ahead of the game!! And is double in size from last week and a VERY VERY clear picture of the little ones heartbeat! SO VERY prominent!! It was amazing. AND b/c the ultrasound probe was so, um, close to baby, we could hear the heartbeat!!! It was amazing. 143 bpm.

I feel pretty good, still just in awe that this is happening!! So w/o further ado, here is our little one's most RECENT picture. This one ISN'T magnified like the last one. This is the actual size of our youngin!!! So clear that there is a somethin' in there!

AND I get to show you the video of the heartbeat!!!! The flicker inside the blob is the heart! The tech puts the arrow on the beating heart!! How amazing is this!! I'm so in awe! Have a blessed day in the Lord!

WELCOME!!

Hi! We are Talley and Matthew!! For some strange reason we decided to put a blog up yapping nonsense about our lives, coping with disability, and about our struggle with infertility. So here we are! We've been married for 8 years!! We have 2 fur babies, our Pup, Joy, and our kitty, Lily. Matt works in computer repair for our church and I am a Registered Nurse at a local hospital in the pre-op department.

After 7 years of infertility, God has blessed us with our first little miracle after conception with IVF/ICSI. Samuel Russell was born on 2/25/11, filling empty arms that have ached for many years. We have begun the journey toward another child and are now dealing with Secondary Infertility. The journey through infertility is long and hard and we want to help others who are enduring this struggle, and bring knowledge and understanding to those who don't know or understand infertility. Why has God allowed us to walk through this tiring and difficult journey? We don't know. Yet. Maybe its to help one of you who are reading this very blog. But what we do know is that He is in control, and with God ALL things are possible! And every day we pray for our little ones, until we are holding them in our arms. SO, we hope you enjoy our crazy life! May you be blessed in the Lord!

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. ~Jeremiah 29:11

They that WAIT on the Lord will renew their strength!
~Isaiah 40:31
