2009 brought Pat and I many special memories and obstacles throughout the year. Looking back they were all worth it because we are now in 2010 and the best part of all is we are waiting on the arrival of our 1st daughter, Grace Ryan.
Last year Pat was able to go and visit with his mom & sisters. I was able to go out to CA and see my dad and many friends. We saw family members and friends get married, have babies and celebrate good times. We watched Michigan as a state struggle with the economy and we were so very lucky to be able to remain one of the lucky ones by keeping our jobs and home.
Throughout 2009 Pat and I went through the hardest struggle yet as a couple and that was trying to have a child. With lots of prayers, luck on our side, and a fancy expensive sticker price we went through IVF and became pregnant in August with our little Grace. Looking back at all the hormones, the weight gain from them, the daily shots, and several doctors visit's she was completely worth it and I would do it again in a heart beat! Luckily from now on if we want anymore we have an easier route to go down since we had embryo's we were able to save :)
Pat continues to work at Fischer Honda and Im amazed by his talent with cars and customers. He cares so much about his job and loves cars so much that the customers love him. He has some that drive hours to bring their car in! I continue to work at the University of Michigan Hospital but just recently I received a new job in the department I have been working in. I now support the Director of the Dept and work with our fellows. Im enjoying the job alot and feel very lucky to have gotten this position especially with the economy we live in.
Throughout 2009 I have tried my best to document it here on our blog. Look back throughout our 2009 posts and you will see all that we went through! Im hoping 2010 will bring us many new exciting and special memories and lots of joy we can share with all of you.
Happy New Year!
