Our New cover!

We are super excited to share with you our new cover for our blog!

  There still has not been an updated family photo of Josh and Anna's family with Meredith in the photo so we gave her own spot to be part of the cover. We did an updated photo of Derick and Jill with Israel. Ben and Jessa just welcomed their son Spurgeon a little over a week ago!

All about Meredith: Four Months old!

I can't believe that Meredith is now four months old and that means that she is getting big. Since the last monthly update that we did on her, she has a new little cousin name Spurgeon.

Happy Birthday Justin

Today we are celebrating the birth of Justin Samuel!

Talks about a second baby!

Just nine days after giving birth to her first child, Jessa would love to adopt her second baby. Ben and Jessa have to wait at least until November 2016 to start the adoption progress due to the law.

Jessa revealed that she would love to have their second baby to be adopted. Due to the adoption agencies, they are not allowed to adopt while the baby is still under a year so they have to wait until he turns one.
Ben and Jessa are looking forward to enjoying time with their little one.
"When I was in labor, I told Ben, 'Babe, we are not having any more kids after this,' " Jessa says, with a laugh. "I was teasing – we will have more kids. But in that moment of pain, I believed it!"

Jessa's birth story

Jessa experienced was a lot different then her sister's Jill and sister-in-law's Anna labors with both Meredith and Israel.

Jessa was in labor for two days and says that her labor was very hard. At one point she wanted to go to the hospital and have a hospital birth after ten hours and then changed her mind.

Their little boy was born at 6:54pm on November 5th. Jessa was rushed to the hospital after finding out that she was bleeding harder then normal. Jessa ended up having to leave their baby boy at home with Ben to go to the hospital.
Jessa revealed that she had dreamed about those first moments, getting to breastfeed right away, all that. And so when I had to go to the hospital, it was a shock.

Jessa had to get an blood transfusion and stayed over night. Ben finally brought their son to the hospital

All about Spurgeon: One week old
