On Friday, September 6, 2013, we celebrated Elliana's "Gotcha Day." She has given Brandon and I so much joy. She keeps us on our toes and is high maintenance (just like me), but I wouldn't trade it for the world. The past few months have been incredibly trying for me as a new mother, but I knew parenthood wasn't going to be easy. There are many days where I feel like I have no idea what I'm doing, but I just try to laugh and smile at the blessing that God gave us.
The IVF experience was one of the most difficult things I've ever endured both physically and mentally. On the difficult days filled with fussiness I will always remember what we went through to get pregnant with Elliana. She's our own little miracle and gift from God.
