Welcome!

We have a lot of fun here at the Jones' house! I wanted to find that picture with all 5 of us looking at the camera smiling perfectly but that just doesn't exist yet. Maybe someday. So here is the real us!...

Life is good!.....

Wow how the months fly by. Here are a few updates from the last few months...

BELLE TURNS TWO!!!! (Aug. 11th)
Oh how she loves cake!
Grandma Karla made a great train cake. Belle loved it!
So trusting...I have no idea what Liv is feeding her in this but Belle is all for it.
The girls love their Grandma Lori!
Thanks Papa Mark!!!!
Just had to post this one...Brad and Belle...see why they get along so well?!

LIV IS IN PRESCHOOL!!!
Here is her official 'first day of school picture' for her first day of school ever! She was so excited. Once we got there she wasn't quite as excited to say the least but now she absolutely loves it and would go everyday if we let her!

And here are three of her outfits...


It is always fun to see what she decides to wear. One day as she was getting ready, she was so excited, grabbed a new shirt and said 'mom, they have never seen this one before'. Sometimes I think she thinks everyone is just as excited as she is about what she is wearing.


They love their daddy!
On Friday morning the favorite activity is to wait outside until the garbage man comes and then watch him take all of our garbage. Sometimes we eat our breakfast outside (before it got too cold) and they decided that he needed a box of donuts. He was so nice and got out of the truck and offered for them to sit in it. They decided they just liked to look at it from the comfort of our driveway but were very excited that he took the donuts.

Belle thought it would be fun to sit in this box and Liv thought it would be fun to pile as many books as possible on her.

They are always making me laugh. I love watching their relationship grow and grow. It is so much fun to watch them play together and listen to their interactions!
Just hanging out with Abby.
Liv's preschool had a field trip to Greenbluff. So much fun!
They love riding their bikes. I think this winter we are going to have to use the garage as a temporary bike track.

We have had a great few months. I realized I never posted after the 'second try' post so for those of you who may not know, we did find out we are having another GIRL in just a few weeks (I am about 36 weeks right now)!!! We are all so excited! At the ultra sound the technician asked Olivia what we were going to name her and she immediately said Rocketpop! I have no idea where she got that but it has absolutely stuck. We all refer to the baby as Rocketpop and the girls won't budge on any other name. I have been talking to them about names and nicknames and hope they are not absolutely devastated when the name on the birth certificate is not Rocketpop.

My brother and his family just came in town so I plan on posting more pictures very soon unless I have this baby early which at this point I really wouldn't mind!
