.four months.








This baby of ours is the best thing that has happened to us. He is always smiling, unless of course, he's starving. We have a total blast with him and love watching him grow.

thirteen point two pounds
twenty six inches
and he still has a little tiny head and Grandpa Jones' ears
we love him

listen, this picture is not child abuse or weird. It's quirky for sure. Nikson actually fussed less during this picture than all the others. enjoy.

California Love

Memorial Day weekend was filled with some great family memories. California happens to be the place Blake and I like best, and this trip was no exception. Nikson got to come along and we had a blast with him, even if he is only 4 months. He wasn't too sure about the ocean, but if he is anything like us, he will adjust just fine. The weekend was filled with good friends, a great drive, one of the most darling weddings I have been to, and watching Blake skim board. BUT I only have this video to prove it!




At least it's pretty cute, right? I will try to round up some more pictures of the event. I decided that one day Blake and I will end up in Cali. We are just not sure when.

Good news I figured out how to follow! Well I predict a little nugget in the somewhat near future so I would choose the "Oh Baby" book.

Called to Serve...

(We were watching via FaceTime when they opened the letter saying where they are going. Thanks to Alisa for capturing the moment for us!)

FINALLY!


Mom and Dad finally get their turn to serve a full-time mission for our church! It has been a huge blessing to watch them prepare for this moment. My mom went through her cancer experience and is healthy enough to go and my dad finally gets the Elder Jones name tag. They are going to Fresno California and they report 4th of July. I am so excited for them. I love my parents. They are the most incredible people and have taught me amazing principles. I love their examples of loving the Lord and putting their trust in Him. To learn more about why they are going go here.
