Baby Update & A Freebie

Hey everyone!

Just an update on my quest to have another baby... we are looking at over $7000 to get pregnant this time around. I have had some health issues that the doctor has found that we are trying to take care of right now. If I had the money and all the procedures that we are doing to make sure I am healthy to carry a baby, go well, then I could be trying in a few months. But at this time the $7000+ isn't looking like it's going to come anytime soon. So, just continued prayers for this would be appreciated, for health and funds.

Thanks to all of you who have supported me! I will be adding $7500 more to my goal for fundraising... yes it's big! But I know one day it will happen!

In honor of my future impending arrivals, I would like to share one of my Digital Quick Pages for free... it could be used for a boy or a girl and you can pop your pictures right in behind it. You can find more of my designs currently in my shop at FaithSisters.com

My January in Review

David keeps hinting that it would be a great idea for me to do a page every month that has the best photos included for that month on it. So, I went ahead and did January! Here it is!

Photos from left to right...

-Hunter opening Christmas presents when we got home from Canada!
-Hunter opening Christmas presents when we got home from Canada!
-Me after I had made out big post Christmas, Christmas dinner with all the fixins... we apparently didn't eat enough in Canada!
-Hunter opening Christmas presents when we got home from Canada!
-Obama getting sworn in as President of the USA.
-The whole right side otherwise is us hiking at the Castlewood Canyon State Park. The last photo is a heard of cows drinking run off water at the fence!

-Back to the left side, 4 rows down... these 3 photos are of David and I writing a verse in the bible that will be sold all hand written. We wrote on 2 pages a verse each... one copy will be placed in the Smithsonian! It's very cool! Check out BibleAcrossAmerica.com
- 5th line, David at work!
-David getting home from work and Hunter so happy, lol!
-Hunter having breakfast.
-Hunter, David and Hunter's friend Benji bowling.

A pretty well rounded January I would say! :D

52 Blessings - Week 4 - My Dad

Journaling:
My dad is a blessing in my life. Although he has been struggling with Multiple Sclerosis since I was a young girl, he has always found ways to accomplish and learn new things to keep his body
moving and active. Most in his shoes would give up, but not him. He is so proud to be grandpa to my son Hunter and he is always happy to hear about what is new in my life.

Faith Sisters Challenge - God Loves You

Here is my layout for the newest challenge at Faith Sisters!

Journaling:
Everyday, the Lord shows his love to me. When
my son comes home from school, when my
husband comes home from work, when we sit
down as a family for dinner and send up our
prayers together...
The Lord is always with me, no matter where I go.


Scripture Verse:
Romans 8:39
...neither height nor depth, nor
anything else in all creation,
will be able to separate us from the love
of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

52 Blessings - Week 3

Journaling reads:
My mother is one of the strongest women I know. She has been through a lot in her life. She has been the bread winner in our family for most of my life. She is a true leader and is driven to succeed in furthering herself no matter how long it takes. She went to university after I was grown and out of the house. She is someone that I look up to and is a
true blessing to me.
