Not So Fun

Three weeks ago we found out that we might be having a miscarriage and this last week we found out that it was for sure. This has definitely been a trying time for Tommy and I but it is reassuring to know that we will always have each other to rely on. Although we are both extremely sad, Tommy has been especially supportive with all of my emotions and taking care of me when I feel horrible. We went and spoke with the doctor on Friday (finally) and I definitely feel a lot better about the whole experience knowing what is actually going on. We also found out that we only have to wait about two months before we can try again. Although there is always going to be a chance that we might have another miscarriage, we are very optimistic about getting pregnant again, even if it does take another year :)
 
I really appreciate all of our family and friends that have called letting us know they care and for their support. Also I want to say thank you for everyones prayers and I know that we have definitely been blessed throughout everything and in the end this experience is only bringing Tommy and I closer together.

April Festivities / Tommy's B-Day

Tommy requested a giant chocolate cake for his birthday so I made him a six layer homemade chocolate cake with homemade chocolate icing. Kaulana and Michelle helped us eat it but we only ate about half of it before it was time to throw it away.


The mess afterwords!

Josh and Dad came down for a few days to check out some stuff for Josh coming up here for school. It was SO much fun to have them both here with us. One night we played monopoly for like 3 hours and ate so much junk food we all felt sick by the end of the night. Just another typical night with us Astons!
One of our Sunday dinners! You can guess what is happening in this picture.
