Let's admit it, I have failed with the whole 'post every day of the month' thing. However, let me explain my absence. The last week and a half has been long, emotional, busy, exciting, you name it....let's start with the long and emotional. Back in June I had a D&C when I was about 9 weeks along. I was heart broken. I knew that many women have miscarriages but it doesn't make it any easier. I cried a lot for 1 day but then felt total peace and knew that Heavenly Father is in charge, and that if I put my trust in him, I have nothing to worry about. Then, I got pregnant again. I was so excited, so was Grant and Adam. A week and a half ago, we went to the doctors for a check up and it was like someone had hit the replay button. After a week of blood tests and ultrasounds, I had another D&C on Friday. It was like the previous experience, I was totally emotional for 1 day. Had a lot of good crying sessions (that is when Grace gave me a hug then slapped me in the face), then felt total peace again. I am so thankful for the gospel. I have said it before and I will say it again. I know that Heavenly Father is in charge. He truly does want us to be happy and so if I just keep turning my will over to Him, then I will indeed be happy!

Now on to the busy and exciting!!! Grandma and Grandpa B. came out to visit for a few days! The kids had loads of fun and the timing could not have been better. I was so thankful that they were here to take care of the kids while Adam and I were at the hospital. Family is the best! There was a lot of playing, a lot of laughs, and when they had to go home, there were quite a few tears. I will post some pictures of the fun we had once I decide to pull the pictures of the camera. And with that, I ask you to forgive me for being a slacker. I am rededicating myself to blogging ever day from here on out until the end of the month! Cheers!

If anyone has an excuse not to blog, it's you. I have to admit,I got teary while reading what you've been going through lately, but then laughed out loud at the part about Grace slapping you. What's that all about? We love you guys to pieces and always admire your positive outlook on life. Cheers to you!
I'm so sorry, that is such a hard thing to go through, and twice in a row. You're right, I can't image getting through this life and all the hard things we are faced with, without the knowledge of a loving Heavenly Father who is right there beside us, especially when we need him the most. Praying that you will continue to feel His peace in your life. Grace just gets cuter and cuter!
I'm so sorry about your miscarriage. Hoping you continue to feel peace and have a quick recovery.
Wow, you have an amazing outlook. I'm so sorry for everything you have to go through, it is never easy. Thank goodness you have Heavenly Father in your life to help get you through it.
So sorry Jaci. I can't say miscarriages are part of my medical history. . . yet. . . but, you know what is. And, some things just bite. Period. Thinking about you from this side of the continent.
Aw Jaci, I am so sorry about all that has been going on lately. I hope you know how much we all care for you & are here for you. You really amaze me with your strength.
Thinking of you. And, you have been an awesome blogger lately. No reason to feel like you have to do it EVERY day. You are doing great! I am loving seeing so many posts. Hang in there. Sometimes I wish we knew the end from the beginning the way He does.
Dear Jaci,
My eyes well up with tears thinking of the pain that you had to go through twice. You know the best thing about trials? You get stronger and you have. I wish you the best and keep up your good attitude. We can all learn from you!

Oh Jaci, I am so sorry to hear about your miscarriages, what a hard thing to go through. I know that in all trials and blessings we learn something and it sounds like you are doing well. I hope that the next time it sticks! I will pray for you!
