While Carrie's parents were here, they also got a chance to tour the NICU and see firsthand how prepared they are for us. We also saw a baby born only 2 days ago at 25 weeks and it was incredible to see how tiny and fragile he was. I'm glad we were able to see him so we can be prepared for the birth of our babies. We know they're not going to look like full-term babies, but seeing the reality is good preparation for us.
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!

27 Weeks today!
Carrie and the babies are at 27 weeks today, praise the Lord! She's had a really relaxing day-- the first in several days where she did not get significant unwelcome news. Many have asked about visiting her. She would love to see people in the afternoons and evenings. Just get in contact with me via email or the blog if you would like to see her.

ReplyDeleteYou look radiant.

Carrie all your pictures make me smile! We praise God that you (six) have made it soooo far, and pray that they will continue to "chill out" in your womb until they are older and that your BP will decrease to a healthier level. You really do look SO stinking beautiful, and I LOVE you so, so much!!

praying you make it from medium-rare to well-done ... now, we all know Jesus' favorite cooking temperature ... I can't stand the need for A-1, though.
