Recent Happenings.

A lot has been happening for the Jones' lately... and it's been loads of fun. Here are some photos of our life lately.

First off: our NC visitors - my brother and clan.

Garden of the Gods:

 Penny Arcade:

 A trip to the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo:

Pike's Peak. Andrew and Joby hiked to the top, and the rest of us met them up at the top.

 Home to GA:

Mimi's birthday:

 Lima Bean's first time swimming with her friend Jacob (and my friend Erica):

Abiding in the Word on Father's Day.

"If a man does not repent, God will whet his sword; he has bent and readied his bow."

Psalm 7:12

Happy Father's Day to all the dads out there. I am very thankful for my dad - Pops. He has been such a blessing to me, and I thank the Lord for him.

There's a new daddy around too... Andrew. If you want to fall in love with your husband all over again, then have a baby. Haha! Watching Andrew interact with Lima Bean is such a delight - from his sweet, loving side to his silly, playful side... the studly man I married has become even more of a man to me. I've always admired Andrew, but seeing him as a dad has taken my admiration to a whole new level. Thank you AJ for teaching Lima Bean and me how to love and serve each other by your example.

Andrew's present from Lima Bean... I thought her wrapping paper of choice was appropriate.

Opening Lima's present

I celebrated Father's Day with my immediate family at Kate's place after her baby boy, Dumpling, was baptized. We grilled out, and it was delish.

 

Week 37.

Lima Bean is celebrating her 37th week of life in GA. She's loving it.

And she's off...

"You're so vain...

... you probably think this post is about you."

Abiding in the Word.

"And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption, so that, as it is written, "Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord."

1 Corinthians 1:30-31

Here's what's been happening around here...

Fussy, teething baby needs a little extra TLC at nap time.

 Lunch with friends after church... made Andrew's grandmother's pound cake. Yum yum.

Lima Bean likes to watch the doggies outside.

LB enjoys an afternoon snack. 

My view from the front...  

She is starting to pull up on things.

If I look away for one minute... this is what happens.

This little dude (Logan) and crew (my brother's family) came to visit us for a few days last week. We had a busy, fun-filled visit. I'll post pics from my camera later. These two munchkins are about 3 months apart... and super cute together :)

36 Weeks.

Lima Bean is 36 weeks. Yahoo!

The last few days have been a little challenging with LB. She is cutting her second tooth, so I'm hoping that the strong personality she's displaying is a result of that.

Anywho... below you will find a few photos of what I mean. :)

Morning hair.

The eyes she makes when she's about to get in to something...

"That's enough Mama."

"Really... no more"

"Ok seriously, stop with the paparazzi business."

Big eyes

Daddy loving time

Superman and superbaby

Notice her "toy." We're working on that one.

Now we move on to the breakdown.

And cut... oh the joy. :)

Abiding in the Word.

"Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life; whoever does not obey the Son shall not see life, but the wrath of God remains on him."

John 3:36
