We Were Not Chosen

I was just notified that "Nicole" narrowed her choices down to eight families and that those families have been notified.  We were not notified so we will move to the next path that God has.  I have put our name on several lists and have been in contact with different places.  We will receive our baby!  Thanks for the continued prayers and support!  If anyone hears of a lead please feel free to contact us.

Update Just In...

Here is an update I received today:

Due to administrative issues within the prison that “Nicole” is located, there has been a delay in her receipt of the information to review the applications.  Steps have been taken to resolve this matter and it is hoped that the issue will be resolved this week with a possible update early next week.

I apologize for the anxiety this is causing but this is an aspect that was not predicted and somewhat out of my control.   I believe the issue has been resolved and will confirm on Tuesday, if possible.

PLEASE continue to pray!

Thanks,

No News Yet

Just wanted to let everyone know that we have not heard anything on the baby in FL for more than a week now.  I did contact the attorney to see if there were updates but his response was "not yet".  Short and to the point.  So we are continuing to pray and believe.  I will post as I know more.

Updates

The first baby girl that we put our book in for has been born and the state did step in due to the mom being on drugs.  Please pray for this family and the best interest of the baby so that she is taken care of like she should be and deserves.

I received an update yesterday from the attorney on the 6 month old.  Both parents did tell the judge in court on Tuesday that they are going through with private adoption.  That is great!  Now we are just waiting to see who the chosen parents are. 

Thanks for the continued prayers!

We Will Not Know Anything Today

Hi Everyone,

As of yesterday, there were 62 applications/profiles for the 6 month old baby girl.  I'm not sure how it got to be such a high number when on Tuesday it was 18 and everyone was told not to send in if they had not already done so; but that's beside the point.  The mom has asked for a week due to the high number and the attorney has not received the paperwork needed from the dad so a motion will not be made on Tuesday, the 12th.  The attorney will touch base with the mom on Wednesday so I will know more then.  He gave everyone an option to back out due to the number and change in date.  I'm not sure if anyone backed out or not. I will continue to give updates as we know them.

Thanks for the continued prayers and support,

Chris & Tara

Paperwork Submitted!

Our paperwork was submitted to the Attorney in FL and it made it there in just enough time.  They received such a good response for this little girl that they stopped accepting applications on Tuesday.  As of then, we were 1 of 18!  I know God is in controll and I will let everyone know something as soon as we know on Friday.

Huge THANK YOU to those who have or are helping by purchasing what we are selling and by donations! 

Thanks for all of your prayers and for standing in faith with us.

Update & New Lead

Last I heard the baby girl has not been born yet but it is looking like it will become a state case.  So at this point it is looking like this is another dead end for us.  Please pray for the baby as the mom is on drugs and the poor little darling is the one suffering.  Pray that the right decision is or can be made for her and she receives a good home immediately.

Thursday we received a case from an attorney in FL about a 6 month old baby girl.  I just finished filling out our paperwork and ordering the 2 photos that we have to send in.  It has to be there by this Thursday, the mom will choose on Friday and the chosen parents will have to be in Pensacola on Tuesday, the 12th with $15,000.  It's a very quick case so I've been pretty busy trying to geth everything together.  Please be in prayer with us that this is the one God has for us.  We've had a few leads the last 2 weeks but they have all been dead ends.  Thanks for the prayers and support!  The fundraising has kept me really busy this weekend as well.  Thanks and keep it up!  We need to raise as much as we can.  I will post once we know something on Friday.



Thanks,

Tara
