Jeremiah 29:11 Project

I was just recently introduced to this  ministry, Jeremiah29.11Project , and I am EXCITED! 

This ministry is a non-profit  (goal to become a foundation) with the desire to bless as many families as possible with the opportunity and privilege of adopting.  

Learn  more about this ministry and the founding Families:  http://www.jeremiah29-11project.com/

Aaron and I plan to participate in the 3K family Fun Walk , but there is also a 5K.  Both will take place at Northveiw Church, in Carmel on Saturday October 27th.

Run/Walk Registration : https://jeremiah2911project.webconnex.com/register

- if you cannot run, would you consider a donation?

They are also looking for Business Sponsorship, again Jeremiah29:11 is a NOT FOR PROFIT, so it's a tax deduction! https://jeremiah2911project.webconnex.com/sponsorship

Please forward this information to ANYONE you know that has a heart for adoption and may be interested in supporting this new ministry. 

MY heart gets so excited when I think of all the forever families that can be created with the assistance of this organization ... 

GRACE AND PEACE!!

the final countdown

Our JuneBug will be here Monday June 18th, via C-Section.

The placenta did move, but is still considered low-lying, therefore the c-section is the safest for me and JuneBug. We are scheduled for 11:30am, prayers welcome!

I continue to move "slowly" through the to-do list and spending special time with Xavier.

We set up the 2nd crib in the boys room this weekend and put the fabulous bedding in place ....

The bedding was made by 2LittleFish, putting poverty to bed ... read more: twolittlefishblog.blogspot.com/

We had our final appointment with the DR today, all looks good ... & was told to "take it easy", easier said then done with an active 14 month old! ... 6 days and counting! We look forward to posting and introducing our JUNEBUG - next week:)

GRACE AND PEACE!

JuneBug Update, 30 weeks!

We have hit 30 weeks with our JuneBug.

Today we had an ultra sound, he is growing well and right on track for a June 13th due date.

He was not in a great position for pictures today ... but it is always reassuring to see his little legs, arms, spine & heart beat!

We are asking for prayers, the placenta is low, in 10 weeks it has moved "some. We will check again in in 6 weeks , if it has not moved, we will schedule a c-section. We would certainly like to avoid a c-section .... so we are praying for the placenta to move and this pregnancy to continue to be uneventful!

a shot of how the JuneBug is growing, from the outside!

GRACE AND PEACE!
