Nobody said having children would be easy. There are many people in the world who struggle to have children. We were one of them. As we sit back and look at Johnathan and Joshua, we are so grateful they are in our lives. They bring such joy to our family. I could not imagine them not in our lives. Then a few years ago we got this bright idea to go to the infertility doctor in search of closure. To our surprise things were a lot different than they were back in the mid 90's. We were so excited to find out that we were pregnant with Landon, also known now as Landonado. Boy did he change our life. He has brought new life to our home. It has been wonderful. We then moved to Texas and again got the bright idea to look into an infertility doctor. I seemed to have forgotten all of the punishment my body would have to take in order to make my dreams come true. As the first needle came towards my abdomen all the memories came flooding back. Here is an idea of what my life has been like for the past 8 weeks.
As you go through all these shots you pray that all of the punishment will result in another child. We were grateful for our little bundle of joy when he entered the world 18 months ago. We were looking forward to another one of those bundles of joy. Well, you need to be careful what you ask for. Heavenly Father felt it would be better to not just send one...he thought it would be fun to send two. Yep...you guessed. TWINS!!! We are very excited but also nervous about what our future brings. We will go from 3 to 5 kids in less than a year. Not only do we need to buy double everything, we will most likely need to buy a new car. What a blessing this will be and we look forward to our new life with 5 kids. We do have 5 more embryos frozen. Can someone say reality show?

The sacrifice you have made is immeasurable. I am so excited for you to be pregnant again and hope this one goes very smooth for you. If I can do anything from such a distance please just let me know. I love you guys
I forgot to ask you if your hormone levels had been high enough to stop taking the shots. But I get queezy just looking at all those needles. I honestly don't think I could do what you are doing. You are brave, and committed and a seriously GREAT mother.
You have a blog!!! I'm so happy I can read about your life too. :) I am so excited for you, Krishawn! I had no idea you had to use all of those shots. I thought it was just a getting pregnant issue. Wow, now I'm even more impressed with you. You're amazing!
I am so happy for you guys!! I was secretly hoping for the triplets to work out... but that was more for my amusement! You guys will do great! Congratulations!!!!
Ps we need two baby counters on this blog now!
Ouch! Krishawn, that's a whole new level of "pregnancy pains!" You are a brave woman! I'm so excited for you guys!
By the way, I went to see twilight... :) Thanks for inspiring me to see it!
WOW!! Twins! How exciting! Congratulations! I'm with Stephanie, those needles do NOT look fun. But I guess it's worth it if you get results like that!! Congrats again and bring on the prego pictures!
