Thanks for Visiting!!

Hi, everyone!!!

I've set up this little blog in an attempt to format a virtual baby shower, of sorts. Here on this blog, I will be listing the items I need for the baby.

It will be a specialized list. We are extremely fortunate, in that, while we've certainly had times when we could've used the cash from selling our baby stuffs; I just never could bring myself to do so. Now, I'm praising GOD for wisdom. We have a great deal of the things we'd already need.

Such as:

Nursery furniture
High Chair
Bouncy Seat
Swing
Walker
A Breast Pump
"Diaper" Bags
Enough Cloth Diapers for the bulk of our diapering career.

I am so, so grateful that I didn't get rid of these things previously!

Of course, we do have need of a few things. And, times are still tight for us. Since we have no health insurance, we will be having to pay for the birth out-of-pocket, which is going to cost us $4400 with a midwife. And this must be paid 'as we go', and must be paid in full by the 36th week of pregnancy. We will also be responsible for my bloodwork and ultrasound(s). Here, I must add that I would covet your prayers for a perfectly healthy pregnancy, so all goes according to this plan; otherwise, I just don't know how we could afford an obstetrcian and a hospital birth!


Sooo, anyway... We are also so, so grateful that our family and friends love us and Baby Dee enough to want to bless us in preparing for him/her!

I will be posting the items that we will have actual need of. While I realize that shopping by a wish list might take some of the baby shoppin' fun out if it for some of you, I must strongly ask that you do so. We do have a true and serious need for certain items; we also have absolutely zero need for others. I positively hate to think of any of you wasting your hard earned money on something we can't or won't use.

So, thank you in advance!! Again, we are so deeply grateful for your love toward us and our sweet little peanut. We are so amazed and excited at what God has wrought. I truly never thought I'd have another child. Most of you know my history enough to know that Michaela was a miracle, in and of herself! But now, He has given me TWO! Truly, He is worthy to be praised!

Thanks for visiting! Love you all!
