♡Project Open Hearts♡: 35 Weeks Pregnant / 35 days go to

Welcome!

Follow us through our journey of life as God leads us. Laugh with us, cry with us, and hopefully let us open your heart as we open ours to God and his infinite wisdom and plans for us.

We've been married for over 4 years and we have been trying to build our family since February 2008. In 2011, we decided to pursue Foster Parenting. We were licensed in the beginning of July, 2011. On July 20, 2011 we were surprised to find out that Allison is expecting!! We are pregnant with our first, due on March 17th, 2012. In October 2011, we accepted our first foster placement... a 2 year old boy named Caleb. In November 2011, Caleb went to live with his foster to adopt family, hopefully his Forever Family! We are currently on hold for foster placements until after the arrival of our miracle baby.

Welcome to our Blog!

Our little boy came a couple weeks early! March 5th Arie Jackson joined our family :)
