This is the blog for Gavin and Carrie Jones and family. We (usually) live in Papua New Guinea and are working to support Bible translations in progress around the country. Gavin is a helicopter pilot and Carrie is a Public Health worker, primarily working with HIV/AIDS awareness. Isaac, our first son, was born in January, 2004. Our quintuplets, Will, David, Marcie, Seth, and Grace, were all born on August 9th, 2012 and a whole new adventure is just beginning!

Girls' clothes
I was very surprised to find out today that despite this massive pile of adorable clothes from generous friends and even "strangers," we only have enough girl clothes for up to three months of age (or 12 pounds, which may come well after 3 months from their actual birth date). We have very few items in the 3-6 month age/size and beyond. So I "misspoke" a few posts ago when I said we had enough for the 1st year. I've learned the lesson not to count your clothes before your sweet volunteers do it officially. :) Which brings me to the boys' clothes: they haven't been counted yet. I'll let you know as soon as we do. Thank you, Deb and Wanda, for giving of your time, and THANKS to everyone who has bought or passed on clothes! We love hand-me-downs - especially for the next 3-4 years in PNG where life is just dirty!
Very blessed by very many,
Carrie, for Gavin too
