His RusticChic: Adoption testimony
http://hisrusticchic.blogspot.com/2015/08/adoption-testimony.html
Wednesday, August 5, 2015. This is my favorite adoption quote. I wanted to share this with y'all. Although we have infertility struggles, adoption was not a last resort for us. Our adoption testimony to date:. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Welcome to my space on the internet! My name is Kristin and I'm glad you are here. I am married to Adam, we have one fur child! I love reading, date nights, adoption, Jesus, Mexican food, and traveling. View my complete profile. A bowl full of lemons.

His RusticChic: Little things + big stuff
http://hisrusticchic.blogspot.com/2015/07/little-things-big-stuff.html
Tuesday, July 14, 2015. Little things big stuff. The physical effects of adoption waiting — aka huge loads of stress — were not discussed with me. Not something your agency covers in the required education classes. Though yes, looking back now, I did hear about adoption weight gain. Similar to pregnancy weight gain. But I doubted its merits. I think I’m pretty good at handling stress. It’s hard not to be when you live with the most even-keeled person you’ve ever met. So, we get out of the home and go out...

His RusticChic: I'm Expecting
http://hisrusticchic.blogspot.com/2015/07/im-expecting.html
Wednesday, July 22, 2015. I’m expecting a baby, but I’m not pregnant. I don’t suffer from morning sickness. I won’t ever feel my baby kick me from inside. I will never give birth to a baby. I don't know who will hold my baby first or who will hear the first cry. And that’s okay. Or it could be years (ugh). Just don’t touch my belly. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

His RusticChic: August 2015
http://hisrusticchic.blogspot.com/2015_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 21, 2015. How I wish the title could be written backwards: Post-Adoption. Won’t that be a great day? As if He doesn't know already. I always wonder how we will receive that magical call. Unless you’ve been through the adoption wait, you probably can’t relate to this level of crazy, but I constantly come up with all the different scenarios and how it might play out. Or maybe it will happen this fall, while we are at my dad's for Thanksgiving, surrounded by family. Links to this post. While...

His RusticChic: April 2013
http://hisrusticchic.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 25, 2013. His presence is the prize. -Kari Jobe. Now King David was told, “The Lord has blessed the household of Obed-Edom and everything he has, because of the ark of God.” So David went to bring up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with rejoicing.
2 Samuel 6:12 (NIV). I love God’s presence! And His mercy endures forever! To experience God’s presence so strongly you couldn’t even stand under the weight of it! The Ark of the Covenant represents God’s ma...

His RusticChic: May 2012
http://hisrusticchic.blogspot.com/2012_05_01_archive.html
Saturday, May 12, 2012. And I couldn't have it, not for lack of trying, I might add. I hated Mother's Day! Great (insert sarcasm) , a day to remind me how inadequate I was, to remind me of every doctors appointment to find out why I was not getting pregnant, every surgery done to end in failure, every stick I pee'd on leaving me crying in the bathroom, the comments like,. Your time will come sweetie,". I know people have good intentions, but comments suck! There was NOTHING good to me about this day!

His RusticChic: August 2014
http://hisrusticchic.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 9, 2014. Buying a house comes with lots of ups and downs. Knowing which house is right for your family and future family isn't easy. add in knowing if God is on board with the decision your about to make and it's a roller coaster ride. Three realtors, three contracts and two years later we are moving into what we will call home. God is all up on this and it's very obvious! We are beyond ready for the next chapter in our lives. Bring it on! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

His RusticChic: Paper pregnant
http://hisrusticchic.blogspot.com/2015/07/paper-pregnant.html
Wednesday, July 8, 2015. Adoption has always been something Adam and I have been open to. We talked about the possibility when we were dating, before we knew the fertility struggle we would face. Even though letting go of our oringal 'plan' to conceive and carry our kids has been. Long story short, we were approach by a birth mom that was already talking with our agency. After she had a change of heart we stayed with the agency. We really feel God picked this agency for us. We love our case w...We naviga...

Monday, December 29, 2014. I’m leaving in 2014:. I’m taking with me in to 2015:. Simplicity. I cut out much of the fat of. Am I not fabulous? Should I wear more pearls? Nah In 2015 I’m taking the real Kristin with me. She’s fun, cultured and happy, but she also rarely likes exiting her comfy clothes. I have much to be grateful for as I reflect on this past year and much to look forward to in 2015. I am thankful for the opportunities 2014 has given me to grow, change and evolve as a.
