January 20th - gift giving

I've been contemplating posting this blog ever since I posted our Baby Registries blog, mostly because I know how expensive & how often (sometimes) gift giving can be, plus I would never want anyone to feel obligated to buy us something or spend more than they have, so without further ado...

Considering that Jerrod & I are such big fans of our local consignment shops, thrift stores, & freecycling - along w. the thrill of a great bargain, we encourage gently used or gently loved items to be given to Baby Jube. We realize that like us, many of you are on a tight budget, so please feel free to seek a bargain, whether it's online or in your own hometown.

I have been able to find many newborn to 6 month old baby clothes and other miscellaneous baby items at our local consignment and thrift shops.

Please give as you like and like what you give. We thank you for blessing us in your own unique way.

With much love,
~Jerrod, Kate & Baby Jube

Ps. My midwife updated my "due date" yesterday at my prenatal visit. Now, as so many of you know I have been very vague about what my actual due date is & of course I am sticking to the original plan of NOT revealing that date, but I will update you on how far along I am. According to my midwife & how "big" I measured yesterday (1.19.07) I am 34.5 weeks along. Now, of course you can do the math & "guestimate" my due date, but I believe only God knows what day Baby Jube will enter this world & I am very content leaving that mystery date in His hands. Continuing to enjoy the mystery of it all...
