It's about time

Well, I figure it's about that time to provide our out-of-state friends and family with a way to keep up with the Figueredos.  Chris and I have had a roller coaster year; but I know that it's one that neither of us would change.  While the year has had it's downs, the ups have been by far better than any I've experienced before!  Not only has it strengthened our relationship with each other, it has also strengthened our faith as Christians. 

Since August, 2009, Chris and I took a long journey (that actually started well before August) through the struggles of infertility.  On Father's Day (June 20, 2010) we discovered that we had reached the end of that journey.  Three pregnancy tests later we hugged in disbelief at those two blue lines - we are finally having a baby!  The best part about the news was that it was completely unexpected.  We were preparing for the next stage of infertility treatments and it was on our "off month" that we finally conceived.  It's true what they say:  God really does have perfect timing!

My goal throughout this blog is to open you all up to the every day happenings for us Figs (which I'm sure you'll all find is quite boring!).  Here's a recent picture for those who haven't seen us lately - I get rounder by the day (but I wouldn't change a thing!).
