It's Already December!

Hello Everyone! Can you believe that it is already December?! It's crazy how fast time flies. Well, things over here in Indiana are going great. We are so busy with our NEW family, and with our youth ministry. God is so good, and helps us with both! Jeremiah is growing so fast! I love being a mommy so much! Jhan absolutely loves being a daddy, and is so good at it too! We hope that you enjoy the new pictures that I have posted up! Our family is growing, and so is Jeremiah!

FAMILY OF 3!!

Liddy & Jeremiah hang out for the first time!

The happy grandparents!

Our snuggly little baby boy

Jhan, Raychel, & Jeremiah Gear!

Oh the many details...Well, on my due date, I started going into labor right after Jhan left for work. We called the doctor, and they told us to go in. After being there for a few hours, they said that I wasn't dilated enough, and sent us home, and I cried...of course. We went back in the next day, and I was dilated to a 3 and they sent us home again! Dang it! They said that I shouldn't come back until the contractions are 3-5 minutes or until I can't handle it anymore. Well, I labored until almost 11pm that night and we called the doctor because my contractions were so intense that I couldn't do it anymore. We went BACK to the hospital and I labored there on my own, tears and everything, thank God for Jhan, he was amazing! I labored until I was a 6 and they gave me an epidural and I slept through some major contractions for about 3-4 hours. When I woke up I started having "pressure" getting ready to give birth, and the nurse said I could start pushing. Of course, right before I was going to push, Jhan slept the whole time, and I tried to wake him up but he didn't, so he woke up when she said "are you ready to push". He was like why didn't you wake me up? I said, honey I tried! Anyways....I pushed for about 40 minutes and then he was here! The doctors kept saying I did such a good job. it was hard, but so good!

Well, to conclude this story, Jhan was an amazing husband through the whole thing, and we now have a precious little son! We are so excited to raise him in God’s presence and do our best to teach him about God!

Thank-you all for your prayers! May God bless you! Keep checking this web site, because we update it quite often.

Our Precious Son: Jeremiah Michael Gear

Hello Family & Friends...we just wanted to give you a quick update! Yes, Jeremiah is finally here! We are so excited and so blessed, but so overwhelmed with God's blessings! God is so good.

After laboring for 3 days, God brought Jeremiah here safely. He is such a joy, and we look forward to sharing God with him and raising him in God's Presence. Jeremiah came on the morning of November 14th, 2009 (two days after his due date). He is happy and healthy, and is very cute (okay, handsome).

Thank-you all for your prayers throughout the pregnancy and birth. Enjoy the few pictures we posted. We will get newer ones up soon. Love you all!!!

Love,

Jhan, Raychel, & baby Jeremiah!

3 weeks left!

Well, we are so excited to meet our little one! We only have 3 weeks left! God is so good, and has kept Jeremiah and I both healthy and safe! Thank-you all for your continued prayers for us and our little family of three! Please pray for the birth, that everything goes fine, and that Jeremiah and I come out healthy and fine. And pray for Jhan too! I am sure he will do amazing too! The picture is of me at 36 weeks pregnant, but going on 37 weeks pregnant!

Jeremiah's Nursery

We have been so blessed! God provided all that we need for Jeremiah! So we spent today setting up the rest of his nursery! Enjoy the new Pictures! And the "pregnant" picture is me at 35 weeks pregnant! Only 5 more weeks to go!!

Jeremiah's Baby Shower - September 26th, 2009

Baby Jeremiah...

His nose is squished...but it's in the middle. His hand is covering his right eye. The reason why I had another ultrasound at 33 weeks was because when i got Jeremiah's first ultrasound they said that the placenta was too close to my cervix. But this last ultrasound, they didn't say that anything was wrong. They said that everything was great! Jeremiah weighs about 4 and a half pounds (when I was 33 weeks pregnant), and his heart rate was around the 130s and 140s. He is VERY active, and enjoys STRETCHING and kicking and moving things around in there! We have about 5 weeks until his expected due date. Please keep Our little family of 3 in prayer. We really want the birth to go well, and we want Me and Jeremiah to be safe and healthy afterwards! Pray that Jhan (who is SOOOOO excited) does well too...which I know that he will! He is amazing!

Thank you ALL for your prayers! God is so good!

I just want to start off by saying how thankful I am for all those who attended the baby shower, and I am thankful for all the baby stuff that you provided for us! We are so grateful! Also, for those who couldn't attend we just want to thank you for sending us the gifts and or cards. God is so good! May God bless each and every one of you. Thank-you for everything! Enjoy the pictures! The baby shower's theme was blue & brown colors with an Asian Theme! We served asian food, including my famous egg rolls!

What's New!!!

Hello Everyone! Thanks for being so patient for pictures and more updates! Well, we are officially moved into our wonderful brand new home! We are loving it, but aren't use to all the space! We actually got a new member to our small family the other day. Her name is Sandi, and she's a Siberian Husky Mix puppy! We love her! Yes, I know you all probably think I'm crazy to have a puppy only 8 weeks before Jeremiah is born, but I really believe that I can do it. I am excited!

God has been so good to us, and we thank Him and praise Him every day for all the many blessings that He has given us! We thank Him for the good times, and the bad times. He is such a loving God to give us more than we could ever ask for!

Well, we are a little under 8 weeks from meeting our precious son, Jeremiah Michael, and we are so excited and ready to see what he looks like! I get to have another ultrasound next week, which I am looking forward to. I hope to post some pictures up sometime after that. We are having Jeremiah's baby shower here at our new house on the 26th of this month!

Thank You ALL for your prayers for us! Things are going well, and we are all healthy and content with where God has us, but are open to whatever He has for us next! God bless each and every one of you. I will continue to update our web site monthly as much as I can! Keep in touch with us!
