Jaydon is 9 months old!

It is amazing how quickly time is flying!  This past Thursday, the 22nd, Jaydon turned 9 months old!  He is such a cute little guy that continues to develop his own little personality.  Nothing on ground level is safe as he has mastered the cute art of army crawling.  He can also pull himself up in his crib so that will bring us another adventure to enjoy before long.  He continues to grow and do so well.  He is finally starting to be able to handle the texture of ground up table food.  He is also starting to enjoy "real" fruit as opposed to the baby fruit we tried to get him to eat.  He knows what's good! :) 

About 1-2 weeks ago, we heard from 2 different social workers with information in regards to his birth mom, Mommy D.  Unfortunately, the news was not good.  Mommy D has continued her poor lifestyle and has ended back in jail.  One social worker told me that Mommy D mentioned to her that she thinks she may be pregnant again.  Whether or not that is true, only time will tell.  But the more I learn about her, the more I learn that she is not to be trusted.  She is telling whatever story she can to others so that people will feel sorry for her and give her money.  This money is most likely then used to support her drug addiction.  We continue to pray for her that one day, she will see her need to get help as well as give her life to Jesus. 

Since Mommy D has been introduced to our family, the children's heart for needy and hurting people has increased.  It has been so neat to hear them pray for people in the world who do not have homes, food, cars, etc.  I pray that their sensitivity will continue to grow!
