My First Post

It’s difficult to start out the first post of a blog. Not that I would really know. I have attempted starting blogs before but never succeeded in keeping up with them. In fact, I had started this same blog about two years ago but had only a couple posts.

I have wanted to start a blog (again!) for quite awhile. There has been so much going on in our lives during the past two years of marriage that I would love to keep record of it. Who knows, maybe I can teach you something, and hopefully you will help me out with many things!

My husband, Daniel, and I have been married for two years. We are still in that newlywed stage as far as I am concerned! We bought our house this past February and have been working so hard on fixing it up. It was vacant for at least 5 years so it needs some work. You will be seeing a lot about the house on here since we are constantly figuring things out as we go when it comes to being homeowners.

Besides having our house, we have been trying to get pregnant since last July. I am unofficially diagnosed with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome. I don’t currently have the desire to fork over hundreds of dollars to finish the tests at the moment to get the official diagnosis, but my doctor was pretty confident that I have it. So you will be seeing quite a bit as we try to conceive despite some setbacks.

Through all this, we are trying to keep our marriage focused on the Lord. I am nowhere near the ideal Proverbs 31 wife. In fact, I loathe cleaning the house! Maybe that’s why we still haven’t finished unpacking those last few (or several) boxes. I really am trying to be more like the wife the Lord wants me to be. He has been teaching me so much through my daily life experiences. I am sure many of you can relate to what I am going through as I write about it here.
