This blog is like weekly therapy. Pretty rough week. The doctor called with some test results and we found out that we will not be able to have a baby of own. Artie and I talked about it last night and we have decided to stop all fertility testing. We are giving it to God. It is a bit hard to swallow right now. On one hand I am relieved to finally have an answer. On the other I am devastated. I just keep telling myself that my plan B is His plan A. I just need to give myself a few more days to believe it. We have not told our family. I am not sure how you go about that or that I can say it without falling apart.
We are leaving for the beach tomorrow which will be a much needed break from all of this. Once we get back we are going to officially start the adoption process. I have looked up a few lawyers to get us started. Artie and I are ready to be parents. If anyone has any advice about domestic adoption or websites we can visit to help us better prepare I would love the input.

It's okay Heather. Now you can tell your future children you hand picked them. :) There is a couple here that is adopting a domestic sibling group. They may be able to give you some info and support along the way. They are awesome, Christian people that are also infertile. I'll suggest her as a friend on Facebook. Her blog is Waxing Mundane on my blog roll. Love you!
Love you Heather! It all happens for a reason...only he knows why.
I am so excited Heather, you should adopt twins! How cool would that be?
P.S. I'm rooting for a girl!
