Well, we are getting pretty close to delivery time for the twins, the doctor told us that we are “in bonus time” now, and he is happy with the progress of the pregnancy so far. He says that the babies are about 2.1 kg each now, which is about 4 lbs. 10 oz., and we are hoping that they can reach 5 lbs. each before they are born. Right now the scheduled delivery date is March 27th, but in reality, it could happen at any time! Tricia is getting pretty uncomfortable these days, so she won’t mind when it is over and we have two little babies. :)
Some of the ladies here threw Tricia a baby shower last weekend, so we received some of the things that we will need, and Tricia had a lot fun as well! Here are a couple of pictures of Tricia getting presents and playing baby shower games:
Jake and Jeremy set the cribs up this weekend, and we went to buy mattresses and some final baby supplies, so we at least have all of the absolute necessities here in case something happens soon. Finally, we have settled on names for the two new members of the Johnson family: Ryan Robert and Katherine Rayn. So please be in prayer over the next few weeks for all of us, but especially Tricia, Ryan, and Katie!
Jake’s Quote of the Week
Jake: "Mommy, can you make hearts with your eyes? 'Cause I really want to make hearts with my eyes when I see beautiful girls."
Mommy: "What do you mean, Jake?"
Jake: "You know Mom, like Popeye does when he sees Olive Oyl."
Praises and Prayer Requests
We thank God for the way that he has safely brought Tricia and the twins through this pregnancy. With just a couple of weeks left, we are so thankful and blessed that we have had no complications at all. God is good!
Please remember the following needs in prayer this week:
-- Our family, as the time for the twins' birth draws near.
-- The many World Mission Communications projects that we have going right now
-- That God would provide continuity for the 3D program while Tricia is caring for the babies.
Until next time,
Jeremy, Tricia & Jake
