July 4th at the Bates Farm

The Bates clan spent 4th of July with Gil's family at Papa Bill and Mama Jane's farm, a celebration that has become an annual tradition. It was also Papa Bill's 81st birthday. And what's a family gathering without a little project? While they were there, they helped Papa Bill and Mama Jane by adding walls to their porch.

    2. Erin is due in December, but she always goes early because of her clotting condition, so she probably will end up with a November baby

    6. @Anonymous 10:33...I was there myself. Please check out Creighton Fertilitycare. There is a wonderful Dr who will work remotely by phone with his patients. Dr. Kyle Beiter of the Gianna Center in Brunswick New Jersey. Creighton works specifically with a woman’s individual fertility signs and is highly advanced for being able to detect hidden, underlying medical conditions that can contribute to infertility. I will pray for you!

    7. @10:33- At some point you have to ask yourself what's more important- being a parent to a child or the biological connection to one. Many years ago, my husband and I finally said enough to the tests and treatments. We adopted two beautiful kids who completed our family and have brought us much love and joy. Our children are now grown and as I look back, I can honestly say that I wouldn't change a thing about our decision. Good luck to you!

    8. Thank You so much @8:31. I will definitely check that out. Thank you for praying and please pray for my husband as his Grandma just died last week the funeral is tomorrow. He was so very close to her.๐Ÿ˜ญ

    9. @11:29 Definitely considered that. We are going to Adopt if this doesn't work. It's taking too much money to keep going to expensive specialists. Thank you for your opinion and advice.

  2. MO- Wonderful pictures plus a plug for Old Navy. Haha- I'm sure Mama Jane and Papa Bill appreciate all the help. Once again, Chaney is at a family event... Looks like a courtship in the making to me. God Bless The USA! :o)
