This summer has been such a blast! Hubs and I have been constantly outside riding bikes, hiking, long walks, riding horses, camping, rock climbing, you name it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are trying to relax and have fun one day at a time. </div>

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have started a few posts to catch up on the past few <strike>weeks </strike>months. But finishing and publishing them is overwhelming so I keep putting them off. I think I'll just start fresh and go from here!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- This week I am home with a lung infection. Yuck. Hard to breathe yuck. I have been rereading the Harry Potter series to keep me occupied as well as a little T.V. I am currently listening to a natural fertility webinar while blogging and cooking spaghetti (with the spaghetti squash for noodles), sweet potatoes, salad, and sauteed spinach. I crave some healthy and REAL FOOD. No more popcorn or string cheese for me, please.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- This is the first time where I've actually made New Year's Resolutions with the intentions to stick it out. To be honest I can hardly even remember what my previous goals were. So for 2014, I have been working on two things:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1- To get healthy </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2- To be more organized</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Very broad, I know. I'm keeping it simple. To get healthy for me obviously means being able to feel great and get pregnant with the least amount of harsh drugs as possible. To get there I have cut out all wheat and refined sugar. I have tried this multiple times last year but never lasted long. I plan on sticking to this lifestyle 90% but have been 100% wheat and sugar free so far! And it honestly hasn't been that hard. Hubs has been doing it with me too so that helps A LOT. As Jimmy said when I told him he didn't <i>have</i> to be on such a restricted diet, "I'm going to do this with with you so that when you get frustrated and want to give up, I can know what you are going through to help." That made my heart swoooon. My only concern with this is that he might go too low carb and it would interfere with his health goals. I try to make sure there is a balance for the both of us. He gets a lot of oatmeal, eggs, rice, beans, sweet potatoes, protein shakes, etc. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have a calendar I get to check off at the end of the day that has helped a ton! If I see that I have gone so many days without wheat and sugar along with exercising daily, I get motivated for more. Likewise, when I get tempted to eat a piece of cake at the end of my work shift, I turn it away not wanting to lose my whole day over one treat. It's gotta be worth it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
To be more organized has been a great one already. I find when I am organized my days run much smoother, I have a healthy and yummy menu, I don't spend as much money, I blog more, I am able to unplug for spiritual growth, and I feel at peace. I went so far as to type up a detailed schedule of how my day should go, meal ideas, which supplements and hormones I need to take on which days, reminders for me to lay out tomorrow's outfit, etc. Sounds a bit extreme??? Surprisingly, I feel so much more calm and happy since making this goal!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How are your goals coming along? </div>

December has been so full of fun activities! I get to attend five different work parties, bake and receive yummy goodies, spend a little more time with Hubs than I'm used to, and enjoy lots of giant mugs full of fruity "teas" while cuddling with Jimmy in front of the T.V. We've probably seen Home Alone too many times. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Speaking of movies, Jimmy took me to see Frozen the other week, I looooved it! Been listening to the soundtrack, especially <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kHue-HaXXzg" target="_blank">this song</a> by Demi Lovato all day today. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We also saw the new Hobbit movie, whatever its called. Today marks Jimmy's third time seeing it. Three times in four days! Goodness. And to go along with the theme, my living room floor is covered in Lord of the Rings Legos. I'm practicing my patience. ;)</div>

and of course I had to do a little decorating the day after Thanksgiving! I actually had a TON of projects lined up but didn't have the time so I told myself to not stress over it and enjoy a little simplicity this year. I made the Santa sleigh garland with my Silhouette machine, it was super easy and quick!</div>

Jimmy got us tickets to the "Music and the Spoken Word" this Sunday so we went to that in Salt Lake. The guests were Deborah Voigt (opera singer) and John Rys-Davis (Lord of the Rings actor- *insert Jimmy's excitement here*) It was SO GOOD. Nothing like I expected. I didn't know they would have so much dancing and acting. The stage was set up to replicate Charles Dickens' town and they did a musical which was titled, "A Dickens Christmas." It was so cool. My favorite was all of the ballerinas and other dancers as well as tumblers doing all kinds of tumbling (back flips, ect.) on stage. It was so fun when Charles and The Ghost of Christmas Present (John Rys-Davis) flew over the town because they flew over the heads of the audience. John Rys-Davis also narrated the scriptures of Christ's birth and Debora Voigt put on a spectacular performance as well as the Mormon Tabernacle Choir and Symphony. </div>

Whew! A month gone by and I haven't been on blogger, what a shame. I wish I could give you a good excuse that says we've been out traveling the world or something like that but in all honesty, we've been glamming it up with.......work. So elaborate, I know. ;)</div>

This is the busier season for both hubs and I so we get to be pretty crazy. Since last year was so hectic and exhausting (no more 12 hour work days, please), I've been attempting to gear up a little better with freezer meals being made, groceries stocked up, and not stressing out so much about the house getting a little messy. That one is a work in progress.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I sometimes get to sneak away for trail rides on ponies. It is such a great stress reliever and so much fun.</div>

I heard of marinating a bunch of meat, cooking it up, and throwing it in the freezer. You can add it to just about any dish and save yourself a lot of time on those late nights. This keeps us from running out to buy unnecessary, overpriced, and unhealthy fast food. Its definitely one of those "Why didn't I think of that?" moments for me.</div>

I had my first ever "oh-yum-this-is-actually-really-good" grain free pizza today. It sure doesn't get credit for looks but totally makes up for it in taste and ease! It was so quick and simple to whip up and actually satisfied my pizza cravings that come just about every day. <a href="http://thischickcooks.net/2012/06/11/coconut-flour-pizza-crust-perfect-for-pizza-night/" target="_blank">Get the recipe here.</a> </div>

And then there are these little gems that make those health goals fly right out the window. My sister and I had a caramel apple dipping party on Halloween.

Hubs and I try to make room for each other even though our days get pretty crazy. We usually keep it pretty simple with lots of cuddling and movies in the evenings. The romance most always ends with me pushing and kicking hubs while he attempts to tickle my feet for "one minute" as he says. This morning while we were cuddling in bed Hubs asked me, "Will you put your arms in the air for one minute?" Um, NO! </div>

Jimmy's home teaching companion unexpectedly lost their four month old baby girl this week. We had the other kids over at our house for a bit so that realllly kept me busy. I don't know how you super moms do it. Her funeral was today and it was very sweet. She was such a happy little baby that will be missed but we know she was needed more on the other side. Baby A makes a perfect little angel.</div>

Oh, and this place is amazing. I've made it a goal to go every week (this girl needs it) so if you ever need a temple buddy just let me know. :)</div>

We headed up to Cascade Springs this week for our yearly fall drive and walk. We've been going since we were dating a few years ago and always look forward to it! Hubby has been going since he was a kid with his family and I'm happy to say that we still carry the tradition on. </div>

I wanted to get some cute photos with Jimmy while we were there, but unfortunately my carsickness kicked into over drive the farther up the trail we walked so we ended up not staying too long. Its not uncommon for me to get slight motion sickness on curvy roads but I assumed that it would go away once in the fresh air. It didn't this time and I'm wondering if it had something to do with the elevation or something I ate previously?</div>

My sister convinced me to take the ponies on a trail ride last Saturday morning. It was a blast! I took my old pony, Sugar Lips, that my parents still use for riding lessons. We went bareback (no saddles) around the dike by the lake. We cantered (horsey ran) a lot and I didn't even fall off! I was sure I would because its been a while since I've done that. Plus we were laughing so hard because we looked so funny on our full speed ponies taking a run for it. I am sure feeling it in my legs and abs this week. But it was so worth it! </div>

After our ride, Jimmy convinced me to go rock climbing up the canyon...Yeah, I have NO muscles this week! I really wasn't in the mood and declined to climb for a while because the only rock we could climb was one I was mad at. (I can't get very far up it at all). I finally just went so Jimmy would stop inviting me. I was on the rock for ages and was so irritated that I was struggling so much that I was determined to beat that dang rock. Before I knew it I was sitting at the top looking over the tip of the temple and fall leaves covering the valley! I'm glad my Hubby knows me and pushes me to try new things. </div>

Also, last week my brand new <a href="http://www.silhouetteamerica.com/" target="_blank">Silhouette Cameo</a> came for me in the mail! Woo hoo! I've been wanting one for a while now and saved up some baby sitting money for it. Whew! I'm still a newbie and just trying to figure things out but I can tell it will be well played with and loved. That last sentence just sounded like someone was talking about a baby or something. </div>

And just one last update for y'all before you get too bored with my looong post. I've been getting migraines and headaches the past couple of weeks. They've been lasting all day and continue to get worse as time goes by. I watch my diet and water intake very closely and knew there were no changes there. I keep trying to figure out what was going on when I noticed I consistently get a headache when looking at any type of screen. Since I work in front of a computer all day and the headaches were getting worse pretty quickly, I made an eye appointment per my hubby's and mom's advice. For a girl who comes from a family that doesn't have any vision problems, I received really weird news. We found out that my right eye is far sighted while my left eye is near sighted. My vision is still pretty good but my eyes are constantly trying to "fight" with each other and adjust, causing headaches. So I was kindly ordered some special little reading/screen glasses to help my head not hurt all day. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I figured I might as well have fun with them if I have to live with them so I tried on like a hundred of funky and fun glasses. The girls at the front desk had a ball helping me try them out and narrow down my options until I picked these ones (and please excuse my awkward face)</div>

Just been stuck in my own little world doing my own thing. I'm keeping busy busy busy. Its a blessing and a curse, really. Still trying to work on prioritizing my schedule and to do list. I was so swamped for a few weeks right when we came home from our trip with starting up more work hours and our house projects. Whew! Now that we are officially done with remodeling for a while, we just crash on the couch in front of the TV on our spare time. Maybe we will get bored in a few days and find other ways to keep busy. WHO KNOWS. We obviously have a "busy" issue. Tips anyone???<br />
<br />
In other news beyond thinking about remodeling...<br />
<br />
-I am loving fall! I got 4 fall cardigans the other day with price tags of $3.99 on each of them! Woo-hoo! <br />
<br />
- I finally created a craft closet the other week. I. love. it. I still need to make it look cute before I post pictures. But it is so much fun to work in! <br />
<br />
- I need to get my teensy porch decorated for fall. I'm not much for swapping out the indoor décor but the porch is something I always enjoy decorating for the holidays.<br />
<br />
- Speaking of holidays, maybe I can convince hubby that we need Christmas lights this year? I've never been able to convince him. So the sad, grumpy, house of ours will most likely look a little Grinch for yet another year this winter. <br />
<br />
- And OH MY GOSH. The other week our Toyota Corolla stopped working. We were too busy to get it towed to the mechanic with everything going on so I just drove our spare truck. Well, we finally got it in over the weekend and GUESS WHAT. Turns out a rodent had chewed through the wires of our car. Let me repeat. A RODENT CHEWED THROUGH THE WIRES OF OUR CAR. Oh of course, why shouldn't that poor little rodent be able to snack on our car parts?<br />

Whew! It has been so busy around here. We got back from California and jumped right into work and remodeling our bathroom. It's coming along so well and I am in love already! Can't wait to get that post going up as soon as its done next week. </div>

Cali was so so so much fun. We loved every minute of it. It was just me and Jimmy for a while, my parents met up with us on and off. We were lucky enough to be able to tag along with my dad since he had a work conference right next to Disneyland. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
While we were in California, we spent our first day doing nothing but the beach. It was so perfect to relax! We even found a quiet beach to lay out on. </div>

I say keep the home remodeling coming! We are having a blast with it! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There was this built in aquarium in our kitchen/entryway. It was really gross and used to house a giant snake for years. It just wasn't working for us. Over the weekend, we just pulled our act together and decided we were going to transform the yucky space into a display shelf. And we love the result! </div>

Hubs took the aquarium out and built the frame/shelves for me while I worked on the décor. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not wanting to spend a lot of money and knowing that I had a ton of stuff in our house, I decided to challenge myself and use only what I had on hand already. And I'm glad I did!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I ended up not spending any money on my portion (now I can put that money towards other stuff, ahem, other craft projects) and loved how I was able to free up kitchen cabinet space by using my kitchen items as décor. I also liked how I was able to use up some of those random craft supplies that I normally would have left cluttering other places. </div>

My display came out so different than what I planned for. I thought there would be so much color and a lot more items on the shelves. But we are actually loving the simplicity and white since its an open shelf and we already have a lot going on in our small house. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I ended up just opening my kitchen cabinets and pulled out some of my nice white sets that I don't use on a regular basis. I pulled out a few more random white items, rearranged things around quite a few times, and pretty soon hubs was telling me how much he was loving it! If I ever want to use the white dish sets for a special occasion, no biggie, I'll just use them and put them back after. </div>

The bunting banner was super easy. It was the first thing I started, planned to be use for a different room originally, and was what sparked my ideas for the display. I just pulled out some random scrap fabric, folded it hot dog style, cut triangles, and hot glued the white ribbon inside the fold of the triangles. No sewing required. Easy Easy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The sign was a gift from my sister when Jimmy and I first got married. I saved it until I found the perfect spot. The wreaths were originally just one foam wreath from the dollar store I had on hand. I cut it in half, wrapped them in burlap, and attached handmade flowers on. The frame was just a black plastic frame I pulled from storage. I sanded it so my cheap paint would hold on, spray painted it blue, then lightly brushed some watered down off-white paint on after it dried. I love how it turned out! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I LOVE how I didn't have to go to the store once for this project! Jimmy and I can't get enough of our new display, it changes the room up like crazy. Not to mention the smell of fresh wood is awesome. :)</div>

I know this blog has been neglected lately, and I'll just blame it on everything else but me. ;) We've been busy busy busy over here getting ready to head off on a little MUCH NEEDED Disney vacation, prepping our house for remodeling which will officially start as soon as we get back, and we both extended our work hours. Hubs rocks 60 hours a week like its no big deal. He amazes me. I, on the other hand:</div>

Between the parade with my family, a movie, some BBQ food with hub's family, then a giant water fight and fireworks, we had a great time! Well, don't I say that every year? </div>

And we've been having fun in the kitchen of course! Do you think I would update y'all with a post that had no food in it somewhere? Hubby actually made and canned the jams below. Lots of berries from the garden were involved, yum!</div>

What did I do while he worked away? I sat on my rear and ate a few cookies. I so kindly offered up my jam taste testing services every now and again too. So much work involved in the process. ;)</div>

After a long second of scared jumping, I laughed and laughed at hubby's little surprise. Yes, those are his clothes, yes hubs drew the face himself, and yes that is a head made out of a well used whoopie cushion laying around the house.</div>

My healing is going so well! The first 1.5 weeks was <em>hard</em>. Yuck. I'm so glad I'm out of that phase. But as soon as week #2 hit, I was feeling so good! My mom, sister, and husband took such great care of me, that helped speed the healing up a ton. I soon felt like I was well enough and needed to get back into the routine of life. So off we went, moving back into our home. Jimmy spent a lot of time deep cleaning the house and yard so I would be a happy camper to come home to. We've been blessed with some tasty meals from ward members and that was a huge help while I was trying to get caught up on my to-do list...slowly. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I got bored this week and went back to one of my jobs. I knew I would be okay for a couple of hours especially since I would just be sitting down doing paperwork. I also had a doctor's appointment. My doctor reminded me again of how much trauma my body had just gone through, and that he was very pleased with how well I was handling it. Plus he did his evaluation thing and GUESS WHAT. Doc was so amazed at how well I was doing that I got cleared a month early! He said it takes most patients 6 (or even 8) weeks to recover the amount I had recovered in 2 weeks! The priesthood is real! And prayers really do work! I feel like I can't thank everyone who included us in their prayers enough. But I'll say it again. THANK YOU for your prayers and well wishes. I am at the point now where being active and returning back to my regular lifestyle will actually help my body finish up healing and get back on track. Whoo hoo! Hubby's response was, "Let's go rock climbing!" (I'm not ready to move <em>quite</em> that fast, babe.)</div>

We've been spending a lot of time outside in the evenings. Hubs has been doing his nature photography lately and I'll go along for the fresh air. Until I get too scared of the skunks. Then I'm jumping and heading back to the car as fast as I can while hubs gets a teensy bit frustrated with me that I might be scaring the wildlife. But I do enjoy snapping a few phone pics while I'm out with him.</div>

Its been almost a week since I had my life threatening experience. A week of laying in bed, looking out the window and replaying what happened that scary day. Its what I think about most. I cannot help it. The memories of dripping in my own sweat and crying out in pain. Oh, the pain. Something I will never forget. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Like feeling like the life is draining from you. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Watching Jimmy's face as he watches the monitor flash that my blood pressure is dropping. Feeling his never ending grip on my hand as if to tell me that he will hold on if I won't. Sensing his stress and worry.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Being told that I am in fact, not infertile. But that this baby is killing me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Immediately being prepped for emergency surgery. My first surgery at that.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Being so scared. But feeling the peace and comfort of my father and husband blessing me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Having another episode of pain while getting wheeled into the operating room.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Waking up crying, shaking, and scratching my face. Having nurses crowded around me telling me that I was so brave and apologizing to me.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Being wheeled passed my parents and husband to hear my mom tell me how I was a momma and that it was a big baby.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Having nurses come in all night long because I had lost so much blood.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mumbling to every nurse who checked on me that I was not infertile.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Remembering what its like listening to my doctor tell me how close to the line I had gotten. He kept saying how much my body had gone through. And how there was so much internal bleeding. My lungs were inflamed, making it hard for me to breathe.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He held up his fist, explaining that the fetus was as big as my uterus, which is equivalent to my fist. He then pointed to the small end of a pen, and told me that was the size of my fallopian tube. And that is where the fetus had developed.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He could not believe how well my body hung on. The whole thing could have gone wrong in so many places, but he told me he is amazed at how well I pulled through.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I cannot fathom how a fetus survived that long in there. And for those few months I had no clue. No sickness, still running around doing my day to day activities. Its just crazy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I keep trying to figure out the reason for all of this. A lot of me feels like it is a lesson of hope to us. That even though you might feel like you are so lost in your own trials, Heavenly Father already has his plans set in motion. We just have to remember to keep trusting in him and not give up. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Right now I am doing okay. This week has been very rough on me. But I woke up this morning feeling better than I have all week. I am still in pain and my tummy is covered in bruises. It hurts to breathe and I still need help with simple day to day things. But I am learning to not rush myself and to put my situation in God's hands. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thank you so much to all of your sweet support and kind words! I cannot believe how much help we have gotten. Thank you for all of the prayers and encouraging messages. I read every one of them every day and it keeps me going. So thank you thank you thank you!</div>
<br />

So....I know a lot of you already have the general idea about how our weekend went. I am so so so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends who have expressed concern and support for me. And since I've been getting a ton of calls, texts, messages on facebook, etc. about what happened and where I am at today, I figured it would be easier to write up a little post. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you read my last post regarding my health, you would know that I have been dealing with a few issues. I had been seeing a doctor to work on bringing my hormone levels up. Back in March I had started taking all of the hormones. I went almost 70 days without a period. Knowing it was a very slim chance, I got a blood pregnancy test from our general family doctor. The test results came back negative. I was not surprised. Then in May, I had started bleeding again. I bled and bled for 36 days straight. Since I had already gotten a negative blood test, my doctor figured it was just my body trying to level out. I had a couple of small flare ups last week. You can read more about it <a href="http://kbreit.blogspot.com/2013/06/a-little-update-finding-good-in-trials.html" target="_blank">here</a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On Friday around 5 AM, I was hit again with the strong stabbing like pain in my uterus and close to my appendix. I tried everything to ease the pain. I had to work the weekend and was trying to get someone else to cover my shift. But who wants to work on a weekend? I went into work and the minute I walked through the door, my manager said I was really pale. By this point I had already taken 2,000 milligrams of ibuprofen. I knew something was wrong. When I looked in the mirror I had dark brow circles covering my eyes and just looked sick. Within the first hour of my shift, I could hardly stand up. My sister felt my arm and commented on how icy cold my skin felt. My managers noticed I was getting worse and sent me to sit down while my sister called my dad to come pick me up. All I wanted was to go to urgent care for pain medicine. By the time I was in my parent's car and just leaving the parking lot, the pain hit harder than ever. It hurt too bad to breathe. My head was spinning around and I was sweaty. I started crying to my dad about the pain. Then all of a sudden I was throwing up on the floor of the car. Twice. My dad knew instantly that I needed more than urgent care. He sped until we got to the emergency room, thinking it could possibly my appendix. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We got put in a room quickly and the tests started. I kept asking for water but nobody would give it to me. They just started drawing blood from my arms. I was dehydrated since I had just thrown up the only thing I had eaten for the day, my usual green juice. I started panicking again because I couldn't breathe or sit up. I thought I was going to faint. Finally the nurse got me IV and medications. When testing for my blood pressure, I was lower than I should be. I just felt so dizzy, weak, and thirsty. "How about that water now? Please just give me water." I would say to the nurse. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The ER doctor came back in later and simply said, "You're pregnant." No. No. I couldn't be. That's impossible. I just had a blood test taken. There is no way. I argued and doubted him for a bit. My husband was in denial as well. The doctor told me that it was probably a tubular pregnancy, meaning the fetus was developing anywhere outside of my uterus. We got some ultrasounds done and sure enough, the ER doctor was right. There was in fact a baby growing inside of me. But things were not going the way they should. I was quickly prepped for an emergency surgery since the baby had ruptured. Luckily my dad and Jimmy gave me a wonderful blessing since I was scared. Before I knew it, I was being wheeled into the operating room. The pain had all come back again. I was freaking out and the last thing I remember was the nurse asking the Anesthesiologist what to do. The next thing I remember was waking up with nurses all around me, petting my hair and rubbing my face. I had woken up crying and shaking, and could not stop scratching my face. Finally I was wheeled into my tiny room. Jimmy was always on the uncomfortable chair right beside me. Once I was hooked up to everything I needed, I was able to get a little rest. The nurses checked in on me every hour. My blood pressure kept dropping and no matter how many hot blankets I was wrapped in, I was still cold. Finally, I was able to warm up and give them some more blood. My blood pressure had stopped dropping but it was still low. <br />
<br />
I had learned that if I had not gone to the hospital when I did, this could have killed me. The doctors were telling me about how there are women in my situation who didn't make it in time to live. It could have easily been fatal. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The next morning I got a briefing of what happened during the surgery. I had been cut open in a few places on my tummy. The first thing the doctor saw was blood. Lots of internal bleeding. He drained 400 ml of blood out and said he knew there was another 200 ml in my body. I had lost a lot of blood. I was told that I was right on the border line of needing a blood transfusion. I had my IV and some stranger's blood ready to go in case I needed it. My doctor was amazed at how well the surgery went. He said that even though my baby was one of the biggest ones he had to take, it was also one of the smoothest surgeries he had every performed. He asked me how I was able to keep up with all of the lost blood from 36 days of bleeding. I told him I eat a lot of healthy meat. He liked that. My doctor explained to me that the baby had grown to be the size of my uterus and fist. It had in fact been in my fallopian tube which was the size of the pointy end of a pen. He was amazed that my tube didn't break at all. My doctor still ended up having to remove my fallopian tube since it was so damaged and scarred. I was told that I could still get pregnant with one tube. He also explained to me that I was having such a hard time breathing because of all of the internal bleeding. The blood was irritating my lungs and had caused inflammation. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
From there on out I was just in my recovery phase. Jimmy was always beside me, holding my hand, braiding my hair and giving me encouragement. We had a ton of visitors and sweet words sent to us. My happiness was lifting up when I realized I could in fact get pregnant. Let me repeat that. I CAN IN FACT GET PREGNANT. Jimmy and I were ecstatic about the news. When you have been dealing with inftertility, this is great to hear! I was still getting pumped with pain killers and other medicine, along with the IV. Having support from everyone is making the process so much easier to deal with. Jimmy and I were ready to go last night. We got permission from my doctor. He said that if I could prove that I was able to walk, go potty, and eat some food without sending it back up, then I could most likely go home. I was ready. With help from my nurse and Jimmy to get me out of bed, I was able to walk with hardly any support. I also went potty and later ate three inches of my Subway sandwich that Jimmy's brother brought for us. Apparently three inces is more than a lot of people would have been able to eat.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My doctor and nurses were so impressed that they let me go home!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am still in some pain, especially where my fallopian tube had once been. We are working on getting some color back to my skin and getting my body the nourishment it needs. Jimmy and I are currently staying at my parents so I can be taken care of while he has to go back to work. I see a little progress being made. I was told to plan for a six week recovery, then at eight weeks I will most likely be able to go back to my previous day to day activities. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Whew! I did not realize just how much I wrote on here! I wonder if anyone actually got to the end of this post??? Haha. </div>

I want to say THANK YOU to everyone of you who has helped me out this weekend. I am so amazed at how loved I feel. From here on out its just doctor's appointments and healing. So thank you again to so many of you! If you have any other questions, I am pretty open about this. But I'm tired so I think I will lay down for a bit! :)</div>

I thought it would be a good time for an update since people have been asking me a lot lately how my health has been. So here goes another one of my long and jumbled up posts. :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would be lying if I said these past few months have been easy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The truth is, is that some days I feel like I am just trying to make it through the day. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It certainly hasn't all been bad, though. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I feel pretty darn good mentally.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its just physically and sometimes emotionally I have been on a struggle. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I have been taking different hormones the past few months to help my body since I can't create what I need on my own. The good news is, is that I have lowered my estrogen and testosterone to healthy levels through my clean lifestyle. My thyroid was slacking, but with help from some medications I've actually been doing okay. Okay as in my hair is growing (!!!!!!) and my nails aren't so brittle.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But it is my progesterone levels I cannot get up to where it needs to be.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A healthy woman produces a progesterone level of 10. Back in March I was only producing a level of 2. I was frustrated yesterday because after months of taking straight progesterone, I had only raised my levels up to 3.9. My sweet doctor lifted my spirits by reminding me that my progesterone has almost doubled in the past few months. So I guess we are on the right path. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
We are going to shuffle things around a bit with hopes that my body will absorb and like the progesterone better. He also offered to put me on Chlomid if we were in a big hurry to get pregnant. I told him that in the condition I was in, I would not be able to handle Chlomid at the moment. That I wanted to focus on getting my body balanced and to feel healthy before I started up the ovulation drugs again. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last week was really hard on me. On Wednesday I was planning my weekly menu when this sharp pain hit my uterus area. Hard. It was the most painful feeling I've ever had. I immediately fell over and could not move. I just remember being alone and crying because it hurt so bad. There was a lot of blood. I felt so strongly that I needed to call Jimmy right then. Figuring he would not be able to pick up since it was his work hours, I had little hope of reaching him. But to my surprise, he picked up. I completely forgot that he had a physical that day and was just walking out of the doctor's office the minute I called him. In just a few minutes he was rushing through the door to me. He was so sweet, rubbing my back, grabbing me ice and water, calling my doctor to see if I needed to go to the E.R. (Which we did not since they wouldn't have been able to do anything for me.) All I could do was cry and tell him that I was in pain. Finally, after a whole lotta ibuprofen and a hot bath, I was able to get the pain down to a manageable point. Turns out when your body doesn't have progesterone, you don't shed your uterine lining every month. (Hence my lack of periods.) But the estrogen is what builds up the lining. So as months go by, you just keep building and building but never shed. Then when your body can't go any longer, it just gives out. You lose all that you have built up. It's a very painful process.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: x-small;">Okay, I keep forgetting that I'm not supposed to be writing a novel...</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But anywho! Like I said before, it hasn't all been bad. Through this trial of mine, I am so glad that I have been able to keep a healthy perspective and not dwell on the down sides. I'm grateful that I have been blessed with a great doctor who I know truly cares about me and listens to me. I know that I have a lot of amazing family members to help me out and who have been a major support to me, even if they don't know it. I'm glad that I have been shown the tender mercies of the Lord on a daily basis. Jimmy gave me a priesthood blessing a couple of weeks ago, it was so sincere and comforting. Through it I<strong> <u>know</u></strong> things will get better. I'm blessed to have married such a wonderful man who takes great care of me and understands my needs. And thank you to all of you wonderful readers who send me encouraging and loving notes! I really appreciate it.</div>

Jimmy took me on a little nature walk after church yesterday. He didn't tell me where we were going so I was pretty excited. All he told me was that he knew I would like it and that the trail was "kid friendly." He knows me well. ;) </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
1- These pictures have nothing to do with this post. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
2- Yes, that is a dog in a suitcase. I have no control over my cousins when I babysit. So I took a picture.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
3- And yes, that is my husband and sister playing ping pong...their style.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
4- I've got tonight off. I would say TGIF. But I don't even know what to do with a Friday night anymore. Hubs and I keep talking about it but we don't even know how to celebrate. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
5- I'm kind of jealous of all of the kids who just started their summer break. They get to play all day long in the sun without a care in the world for a few months. I mean, where's <em>our</em> summer break from work?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
6- Hubby and I attended two wedding receptions last night. Let the wedding season begin. Let my wallet empty on wedding gifts while my tummy fills up on little sandwiches and pastries. Its a fair trade off. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
7- I should really clean my house today. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
8- We ate the first strawberries of the season right from our little garden this week. MMMM. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
9- Wifey confession time. Hubs was supposed to come home Monday from his backpacking trip. When his name popped up on my caller ID at 9 AM on Saturday morning, my first thought was that it would be the paramedics telling me he was dead. Instead it was, "Hey babe....I finished early.....I'm sitting in a park....my feet hurt so bad....can you come pick me up?" Turns out 10 miles in he remembered he had a payment due for scout camp. He hiked 22 miles the next day so he could be responsible and make his payment. He walked like the oldest man I have ever seen for two days. </div>

Yesterday was my sister's birthday! I am so lucky and happy to have her in my life. We are best friends and so close. I'm glad we were able to share a room together for 17 years. And that we have grown up enjoying a lot of the same hobbies. We spent our childhood running around the farm barefoot, climbing haystacks, riding in the tractor barrel, and playing with ponies and a lot of other animals all day long. I was looking through some of our old scrapbooks and found all of these photos of us when we were younger. I snapped a few with my phone (hence the not so awesome second generation quality) and knew I had to post a few! Some are clearly not so flattering. Oh, to be so awkward on a daily basis again.... </div>

Yep, that is Baby Kailie on the left and Baby Jimmy on the right. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Tell me, something doesn't look right here. Aside from all of the hoots and hollers we give over this photo, I can't help but be slightly jealous of the hubs for having fantastic hair. Obviously I was bald. For far too long. So, what will the <strong>future</strong> Baby Breitlings look like? Hahahaha. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The hubs wrote and sang me a song this morning:</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<em>"Mooses have bruises and geeses have leases on their nieces!"</em></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He sang it all. morning. long. Then texted me his lyrics at work. It was rather sweet and romantic. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I told him to be quiet. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
+</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As of now I am husbandless for a few days. He kissed me goodbye and headed off for a backpacking trip. I would have loved to go with him but my body just can't do that much right now. He says, "Maybe next time you can come!" </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I am a little worried about him being out there. If he were any less skilled then I would be very on edge right now. Hubs told me he was more nervous about me than himself. Something about my overactive imagination. ;) Good thing I have plans to stay busy and hang with family! And making some frozen yogurt in the ice cream maker. MMM! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anywho, you would be slightly worried too when</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A) He preps you by saying, "If I'm not back by <em>this time</em>...then somethings wrong." </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
And</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
B) While making his meals, he expresses a little concern about the animals being able to smell his food and causing some trouble. He later adds, "If bears come and bother me, I'll just feed them these jalapeno pepper seeds." </div>

- FYI I cannot prepare any meals with my hair down. I always have to pull it up if I'm dealing with food. Hair and food= gross. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
- Hubs likes his milk warm. He leaves the gallon sitting out all day so it'll be nice and warm for dinner. Yuck. It took me a while to not put it in the fridge anytime I saw it sitting out. I don't drink it anyways so its all his. Warm yuckiness and all. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
- Today was the first day in a little over a week that I've actually had energy and motivation to be productive. Modern food kills me, man. I'm trying to get it out of my body and I actually feel a lot better today. Still have a headache and tummy troubles but I've got energy to clean the house, work, grocery shop, etc. Feels great to not be a bum.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
- My sister came home from Washington today. Yippeeee!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- I've got a whole lotta veggies to start making a whole lotta salsa. I'm going to be eating that goodness for weeks. So excited. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
- That is all for my ramblings. </div>

Sunday walk. We are constantly stopping to observe plants. Hubs needs to find out exactly what it is and every little detail about the tiny plant, and I need to snap some pictures. Typical typical us. </div>

We spent Sunday evening at my parents' for Mother's Day. My dad barbecued some tri tip and each of us kids provided some yummy sides. It was such a delicious meal! I brought homemade baguettes and the Oreo/pudding cake dessert thing. We'll just make that the professional recipe title.</div>

Quick story- My mom used to breed dogs. And some being pugs. They are such good dogs. My mom let me keep one of the puppies years ago. We names her Emma. She was such a fun a loving dog. We gave her to a good home (family friend) a few years ago. My sister is visiting said friend and snapped these photos of Emma for me. </div>

I don't know why I get so excited for the weekend. I have to work every weekend night.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But maybe its the short Saturday days that I love. And those Sundays. Ahhhhh. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anywho, I plan on getting my craftiness on this weekend, enjoy the outdoors, and some quality family time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh, and Happy Mom's day to everyone! What would we do without you ladies?! </div>

You know how I posted about all of our yummy food in my last post? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Well, shoot, did I ever learn my limits this weekend. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My body has been super sensitive to the food I have been eating. Especially the junk. And even though I didn't eat a ton of it, junk food was all I had over the weekend. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I guess my body can't handle it right now so Monday morning I woke up sick to my stomach. I chewed mint gum, drank lemon water, went outside for fresh air, lay down, too hot, too cold, couldn't stand, hated sitting. Nothing worked. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The nausea just got worse and before we knew it, I was laying on the bathroom floor crying, telling Jimmy how it hurt so bad and I've never felt so sick before. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Jimmy was the sweetest. Rubbing my back, cleaning the house before work, asking if there was anything he could get from the store. He even offered to look for the knock-me-out sleeping pills, just so I could sleep through it all since nothing else was working. Boy did those pills work. A four hour nap later and a lot of clinging to the porcelain, and I was on the road to recovery.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yuck. So for the past two days I've been eating nothing but veggies, some fruit, and some healthy light protein. (With a little treat tonight.)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Moral of the story- Don't test your limits. Its gross. And painful. But you do get to be lazy and watch shows all day. And your hubby will be super sweet. So it wouldn't be a total loss. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
On a much much happier and less gross picturing note, I saw my oldest and closest friends from high school! (And a little after high school too, until we all got busy with grown up stuff.) We met up to see our previous sewing teacher before she left teaching at our high school. Seeing as we spent hours and hours in that sewing room, we naturally became her annoying children. We fought a lot. But she loved us all those years. We ate some ridiculously good food tonight. And watched the fashion show. And laughed a lot. And took a lot of pictures. And was too hot in that room with all those people. And sat in the car to talk and laugh some more. And promised that we would have to get together again. I'm holding up my end of the promise, ladies! </div>

Every week I write about how great the weekend was. So repetitive but so true! When Sunday comes to an end, Jimmy and I always mention how we wish the weekends lasted a little longer.

Early morning rock climbing up the canyon. This is starting to become a tradition. We know when 8 AM rolls around on a Saturday morning, we are off to climb some rocks while the sun rises. I know, I know, none of you can get past the fact that we are up and running around so early on the weekend. But the truth is that we both are awake well before 8, no alarms needed. And we can't sleep in. And we go to bed early. Say it, we are old folks. </div>

We attended a baptism right after our climb then headed off for a little burgers and shakes date. Ummm, the Malt Shop is so good. Hubs loved his apple cobbler shake and I downed my brownie goodness.

I got my crafting on this weekend. Out of nowhere I was pulling supplies from the garage and getting myself into a giant mess. My back kills as we speak from this gem. Its not as perfect as I wanted it to be. It turned out being harder than I thought. But I loooooove it. And hubs didn't even have to help me assemble the wood together. And I free handed the painting job. And I already have a million other ideas. And and and that's enough "ands."</div>

Church was so uplifting and you might as well rename me "Mrs. Waterworks." We also enjoyed a baby blessing for some close friends of ours. Then took a long nap together. Yep, great weekend. </div>

I have found this particular place to be a sanctuary to me. This week has been kind of a hard one on me. I don't mean to throw a pity party on the blog, but I do try to keep it real here. I am going through a new process trying to help my hormones. I was dumbstruck when I found out that through my clean eating, my body had already done so much healing on its own. But still, I've got a long ways to go. Since I create close to no progesterone, I'm trying to take it in a pill form. Hopefully it will help my body balance out and teach it to create hormones on its own. </div>

I'm praying and hoping that we have come close to answers. Its not easy. With crazy new hormones and an unbalanced body, you get side effects. I've come to the conclusion, as many have, that it makes you feel pregnant, but without the nice little package at the end. I'm exhausted all day, I am sick from the moment I wake up, its been almost fifty days since I've had my last cycle, and don't even get me started on the emotional junk. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I called my doctor, I even got a blood pregnancy test to be sure. I was told it is actually normal to feel this way for a while. At least I'm not dizzy anymore. THANK GOODNESS.</div>

Anywho, I don't mean to ramble about poor me. And I hope it doesn't come off that way. </div>

Last night I really felt like I needed some comfort after feeling so discouraged and lonely. I turned off the stove, grabbed my keys, and just drove until I reached the temple. As I pulled up I realized it was closed. I got out to walk around with myself. Just me. For a long time not a single other person was there. It was so....peaceful. I've never been so alone at the temple, yet I've never felt like I was surrounded by people who love and care about me so much. I stayed until my fingers felt like ice and my tummy reminded me of the dinner I still had to finish at home. I left feeling like I was enough. And a little recharged.</div>

It was so nice to have that experience. I doubt I will ever be lucky enough to have that sweet moment all to myself again, but hopefully the photos and word I write will help me to remember that I can turn to this special place anytime.</div>
