Prayers needed....

This little love bug is having a really HARD time!
Baby Jaxon has bronchial pneumonia on top of RSV. He's only 7 wks. old. His little body hasn't responded to two rounds of antibiotics. The Dr. are running tests this morning to determine if there is something else going on. They are trying to see if there is a reason his body isn't responding to the medication.
He is tired and worn out...as is his beautiful mom, Whitney. Please pray for this sweet family. Even if it is just one little prayer! Prayer makes all of the difference in the world!

Pray for Jaxon!!!!

Calling all prayer warriors.....
Baby Jaxon needs our prayers!
Jaxon was born on Dec. 10 and he is precious!
He's been really sick now for about three weeks and they have admitted him into the hospital this afternoon!
He has RSV and he is loosing weight.
He is a sick little guy!
Please pray for complete healing, a speedy recovery, for his tired mom (Whitney) and his precious family....The Robinson family!!!!
This family is very special to us and we appreciate all of your prayers!

Laundry Soap Verdict....


Several of you have commented and emailed wanting to know how the soap turned out!

Well, I haven't used mine yet b/c I'm finishing up my store detergent.

The homemade laundry soap is concentrate. So, you need a container!

I may not try it until sometime next week.

But, my partner in crime....Denise, experimented with her homemade laundry soap yesterday.

She tried it out on her sheets.

We were hesitant about using the Lavender essential oil with the Ivory bar.

The soap smelled really fresh and clean without the oils. We weren't sure what Ivory and Lavender would smell like. She washed her sheets with the soap and didn't use her fabric softener. There was NO smell. They were clean, but had no smell. So, we are going to try adding the oil next time. We think that may be what it takes to get the smell!

So, if you are trying this at home....let us know how yours is turning out!

It may be a trial and error thing until we get it figured out!

Will someone just pick up the phone and call Mrs. Duggar already?
