Art for Adoption

We are so blessed to have friends and family rally around us as we wait on the baby we will be adopting!  We don't know who he or she is, yet, but we are ready for that sweet day!  A group of 35 women gathered together and paint with the proceeds going towards our adoption expenses!  It was a fun night together, and everyone's enthusiasm to be a part of this journey with us was so encouraging!

I won't make the same mistake twice!  I am putting up this cute picture of Jennifer and me first!

Everyone painted such beautiful pictures!

Trying to be a little goofy!

Magdalena Grace Roberts

This morning Magdalena left this world to be with Jesus. There really isn't too much else I can say but to please pray for Julie and Noah. For now, they do not want any calls, emails or visits. I will you keep you updated on the arrangements.

Making the Decision to Not Make the Decision

I get the question, "Are you going to have any more kids?" asked often. Since finding out Magdalena's diagnosis it was always a tough question to answer. We had always envisioned ourselves with multiple children, but there was always the lingering thought of having to endure this difficult situation again. Although it is less than a one percent chance that we would have another child with T18, the percentage still exists. When pregnant, I said multiple times that I couldn't do this again and my mom constantly reminded me that it is not always that difficult. Being pregnant was physically uncomfortable, but I was referring to the constant emotional exhaustion. As Magdalena continued to do well, Noah and I weren't sure when to begin thinking about other children. Noah and I discussed that I would work really hard at losing my weight, but I was willing to be five pounds more than what I was originally. People poked fun at my not eating Magdalena's birthday cakes
