I wanted to do a quick update on our whole "having a baby" issue! HA! Well, as you know, I have been on clomid for 2 months, and no, it hasn't worked yet. What it has done is made me gain 7 pounds! This is a BIG deal for me! The first month, I thought everything was fine and I had not suffered from any side effects. The second month has been TOTALLY different. Not only have I gained the weight (and my eating habits have changed NONE), but I have been a HUGE ball of emotions! Well, Brad and I have been praying and feel that when it is God's timing for us to have a baby, then we will! So, I am done with the medicine! I have a peace about it, and I know it is in God's hands, but in the back of my mind I can't help but wonder, "What if I try it just one more month! Maybe this is the month!" So please pray that I will follow my heart and know that what we have decided is right. I know we have a lot going on right now, and when it is our time, God is going to bless us with that miracle!!!!

Following God!!

Well, I know I have not updated lately on what is going on with Brad and I, so here goes! :) As you all know, we are suppose to be headed to Texas in July for Brad to start Seminary. He hasn't finished his undergraduate degree, so he will have to do that first. Brad had a conference call last week with his advisor from Southwestern to make sure on about how long it would take him to get his Bachelor's Degree...well, it didn't go as we thought. He informed Brad that it would take him about 3 years...yes, 3 years!!!! As most of you know, Brad and I both went to Mississippi State, and he has 90 + hours there! SO, it would take him about 2 or 3 semesters to finish his undergrad there! Needless to say, we are praying VERY hard that God will show us His will for our lives, and where He wants us. We don't want to necessarily take the "easy way out", but we want to follow what God has out there for us. Please keep us in your prayers that we will follow His will and go where He wants us and can use us!!!!
