Time for an update

I know, no news from the Jones Family lately. Life seems to just seems to stay so busy that we don't have time to keep up any more. I am now about 16 weeks into the pregnancy, and things are going just fine. We are very excited to know that we are getting closer to the next ultra sound. Daddy (Floyd) can't hardly wait to find out if we are having a boy or a girl. The time will be here before we know it, though.

We are both staying busy at work, and enjoying that. Life outside of work seems non existent at times when I come home and am ready to go to bed. I am having to learn how to pace myself more with the things that I commit to, as my body (and the baby!) aren't wanting me to do everything that I want to do.

We do have a new addition to our family to share with everyone. About a month and a half ago we adopted a new puppy, Toby, into our lives. I don't have pictures ready to share right now, but will get some soon. He is a very active puppy, but that activity is great for Jasper. Toby is adorable, and brings us much joy.

My time is running short this morning, so I must get busy with the things that I have planned, for this busy day. More to come later.

Betcha can't guess?!!!


Why would we have this stuff?

Maybe you guessed it, maybe you didn't...but you are about to find out why:

We are having a baby!!!

We found out last week that I am in the early stages of pregnancy. Our first ultrasound is scheduled for March 21st, when we will be able to see and hear our baby for the first time!

We will try to update our site regularly with new updates to keep everyone in the loop aboutwhat is happening.

Jasper

You have asked, we are responding. Here is our precious dog, Jasper.






He loves to sleep on the bed, especially when we are not around and he can snuggle into his favorite spot.















His spot can change, but you can be guaranteed that he is always comfortable. He loves blankets and pillows. When we are not home we close the bedoom door, but he will curl up on a pillow or blanket on the sofa.







He is definately our baby, and as such we like to call him "Deesper." Guess you have to hear it to understand.










Just about anytime that Floyd is home Jasper likes to be near him. His favorite time is when Floyd is in the recliner and he climbs up to lay on him.

Snow!

We had a wonderful Georgia snow a couple of days in the last week. Winter is Floyd's favorite time of the year, so we had so much fun with it.


This is the neighborhood that we live in. It was absolutely beautiful this weekend.





















And this is our home:


Can you tell that we loved it?!!
