She is so tiny, you can barely see her in my arms. She only weighed 7lbs.... which is itty bitty to me. I had to have twins that came four weeks early to get a tiny baby and even then, I had almost 12 lbs of babies.
Anyway, Mom and baby are both doing great. This little lady is very blessed with a sweet momma. I have had the joy of walking through this entire pregnancy journey with this dear friend; so this was quite a celebration to finally get to hold her precious little one.
On a different note, Expecting a Blessing has another new edition that I just can't stop thanking the Lord for. My very dear friend Lisa, in the picture above, just joined the E.B. team and she is such a blessing to our ministry. We have a team of ladies that dedicate their time to this ministry each week but we were still in need of someone else. When Lisa joined us, she jumped in with both feet. This Sister has one of the most beautiful servant's heart I have ever seen. The women we minister to will be blessed by Lisa's love for Jesus and her heart for young women in need of Hope.
We are gearing up for our next shower and if you would like to help us, that would be GREAT! Our fall shower is scheduled for October 26 at the Lovelady Center. God is always so gracious to provide every single item we need for the showers..... and I'm confident He will do it again. If you would like to donate items, please email me at pollybice@aol.com
Thank you friends for your support and prayers for this ministry. Below, I am listing the items we will be collecting for each "baby care package".
*sleepers
*onesies
*receiving blankets
*socks
*burp cloths
*bottles
*diapers
*wipes
*bibs
*hooded towels
*wash cloths
*newborn outfits
Please remember, we ask that all items be new, and newborn in size.
I want to give a shout out to our friends at Grace's Kitchen. They will be providing cake, punch and refreshments for our shower again. If you are not familiar with their ministry, please check them out HERE! These sisters encourage me to be a doer of the Word.... they are making much of Jesus, and I am thankful for their friendship.
Be on the look out for pictures from the baby shower. I can't wait for you to see how cute these sweet mommas are :)
