Glorifying God as a family

update November 29, 2007

Things are not looking like our little one or ones are still with us. I am still spotting and morning sickness is gone, as well as a few other signs of pregnancy.

There are two things that are giving us hope, but that hope of our little one being alive is hanging by a thread. 1. My hormones test came back normal from Mon. 2. I haven’t actually miscarried, only spotting.

Please continue to pray that God’s will is done and He is honored in whatever happens. Jim and I are pretty convinced, but we are content in whatever outcome. We know from Josiah that God can bless us with another soon afterward.

 

miscarriage? November 28, 2007

Filed under: Adora and Thomas — jimbaxa @ 2:32 am

To all our Christian friends,

Please pray for us. We had a scare and it is mostly resolved, but we are not out of the fog yet. Traci started spotting yesterday (Mon) and we had an ultrasound and blood tests done. The blood test show pregnancy hormones, however the ultrasound showed Traci is only 5 weeks along, when she was estimating 10. Please pray as we wait for our ultrasound on the 10th. Pray that we would be patient and we would always remember that God gives and takes away. We are not sure which is correct, but we know His plan is perfect and we will trust in Him.

Lately, Jim and I have noticed how Josiah is very social at church.  He is social in public places, but nothing like at church.  There he goes to anyone.  I think he has the mindset that anyone in the church building or at Bible study are safe.  There are some people he doesn’t hesitate on.  It is pretty cute!

Josiah enjoyed his thanksgiving meal yesterday.  It was food, need I say more.  He also love dessert.  He had 5 servings!!

Grandpa came over and brought his giant exercise ball.  Josiah played hide-and-seek with grandpa.  He had a blast!

Today we got our first snow… and of course the guys went out to play.

What was Josiah’s reaction?  The pictures say it all!

weaned November 20, 2007

Filed under: Josiah David — jimbaxa @ 9:51 pm

Well, Josiah has officially weaned.  :(     We actually had a little difficulty, but over all I thought he did very well.  I was told most kids want to keep nursing before bed and that was the hardest one to get rid of.   Well of course, Josiah wanted to be the exception.  He wanted to nurse in the morning more than anything, but we decided to give him something “better.”  Josiah loves his daddy a lot!  So, we told him he gets to start having breakfast with daddy.  It is really cute.  He gets excited to eat bagels with daddy.  Jim will cut a bagel in half and Josiah will eat it while Jim eats and reads the news.  They are quite the buddies.  Momma is cool, but no one can trump daddy.

 

big kid? November 19, 2007

Filed under: Josiah David — jimbaxa @ 7:19 pm

Josiah apparently thinks he is a lot bigger than what he really is.  We arrived early last Wednesday night for our Shepherding a Child’s Heart class, so we were talking with the lady in charge of nursery.  I guess Josiah is bored with being in his age group.  He is bored!  Go figure!  He wants to go with the two and three year old kids!  So, that night we decided to check him in with the big kids and he was thrilled to be in there!  We was running and squealing in excitement.  He was smiling at us with a smile of “yea, you finally get it!”  Yep, that’s our boy… always wanting to be challenge to complete the next milestone early… even graduating nursery rooms.  :)

Josiah has said grandpa!  This Monday we went to the mall and met up with grandpa to play at the indoor playground.  When we saw my dad at the mall Josiah wasn’t  sure what to think, so my dad looked at him and said “it’s grandpa” then Josiah said “bampa!”  My dad and I looked at each other in amazement.  It was so precious!

 

banker November 13, 2007

Josiah started his first bank account today!  He even was able to pick out his own piggy bank!  They gave him the choice of a green, blue, red or clear piggy bank.  Can you guess what he picked?  He picked red!  The brightest color.  It was fun to watch him decide.  We put all the colors next to each other and he looked back and forth and then decided he liked the red.
