The Hard part of Life

Five years ago, if you asked Scott and I if we wanted children, we would have given you a very non-chalant answer. Probably something along the lines of, "Well, maybe? I mean, if it happens, it happens." Like I said, non-chalant. Then it happened. Yep, we are fully aware how it happened, we just didn't really think it would happen. We were on our honeymoon, what are the chances of getting pregnant on your honeymoon? Apparently, the planets were aligned and there must have been a high tide or something. Six weeks after our honeymoon, I felt bizarre. I thought being married was making me crazy until Scott suggested I take a pregnancy test. I did, it was positive, and we freaked out a little bit. We scheduled an appointment and realized that not only were we going to be adapting to married life, we would also be adapting to parenthood. We walked into our first appointment at 9 weeks with excitement and nervousness. How can you prepare for the first time you see you...

Fall is in the air and I'm ready to break out my leggings, suede boots, wool coat, and mittens.  I am beyond over the warm, muggy Indiana air and am ready to bury myself into a pile of fleece blankets with a raging fire roaring to life in front of me. Instead of "tornado warnings" I'm ready for blizzard-like conditions that threaten to shut down school corporations and cause Scott to disappear in to a sea of white with snow shovel in hand.  I'm ready for all the goodness that comes along with this time of year, and we have a lot of goodness heading our way! Bull Island attire included rain boots In the past month, we've been up to some exciting events around the Fisher Family Household.  Early in the month, Scott and I went to a 40th Anniversary of Bull Island party.  What is Bull Island you ask, read the real story here; http://www.courierpress.com/news/2012/sep/02/woodstock-on-the-wabash-what-began-as-a-highly/   I swear I was born during the wr...
