bye bye




Just in case you haven't seen it yet, here is a video of Jonas right after he learned to wave bye bye! I am not sure why the video is off centered in the box?!?

Learning to crawl

Hey guys. Here is another video. I just wanted to share with everyone how mobile Jonas is getting & how he is scooting around. The video is a little slow going, as Jonas is distracted by the camera, but his best scooting is at the very end of the video. I tell you everyday he does better & better. By Sunday he could be walking! :o) Just kidding. I just wanted to give you other mothers something to look forward to very soon! Love you all & stay safe & warm this weekend in the wintery weather!

You know the drill, click the link to see the video!

Here is a new video of Jonas playing peek a boo. The quality is not wonderful, but you can get the jest of it. He loves playing peek a boo & has gotten very good at it. If any of you have ideas as to why my camera is skipping while recording video, I would welcome suggestions. Just click on the below link to watch this video!

Everyday is seems Jonas is getting closer to crawling. He is really scooting forward now using his legs and even tippy toes. And he has another tooth coming in next to his first one. So now he has gotten his front two bottom teeth.

Everyone stay safe & warm on these cold days & slippery streets! Jonas sends his love to all!

Just wanted to give everyone a look a the "Jones Place" covered in the recent ice storm. We did survive. Friday was spent without electricity for the majority of the day, and Sunday we with without again for a few hours. But we had fun none the less. Hours of dominos & skip-bo served as great entertainment. We were able to spend a lot of time with family, and that was great! We hope you all stayed safe & warm during the icy weather!

As for Mr. Jonas Kash Dunn, he is quite the talker now. He can say Dada & Bubba most recently. Now, he has no idea what he is saying, but don't tell his dad that!! :o) And he has gotten quite good at the peek a boo game. Hiding his face behind the blankie & pulling it down waiting for you to say, peek a boo! He loves it.

Have a blessed day!

We have a tooth! Our first tooth has started to come in! We first noticed it this Saturday when he was "chewing" on a water bottle & I could hear the bottle hitting something hard. So sure enough, I stuck my finger in his mouth to find a tooth coming in on the bottom. Just barely coming through his gums. Everyday it is coming up a little more. I have to carefully check, because feeling of his tooth & gums yesterday turned out to be a little painful as he bit down on my finger! Poor guy was just trying to chew on my finger!
Jonas is also getting to be pretty mobile these days. If you lay him down & walk out of a room, when you come back he is completely across the room. Leaving me to wonder, how did he get over there?? He is doing a combination of rolling & scooting right now! As he rolls he is bringing his knees under him to scoot forward. He will be going strong in no time.
Well, these are some leftover Christmas pictures I wanted to share! I just wanted to point out the picture of Jonas in his new cowboy boots! How cute are those!! They are his first pair of real boots! Too cute! He doesn't quite fit into them yet, but he does not have far to go. He will be running around in them in no time! He also has a pair of tiny (size 1) wranglers to wear when he is wearing his new cowboy boots. You can bet you will see pictures of that when he is fitting into them!!
God Bless you all! We love you!

We are back. We were gone from internet world for a short while, but we are back again! It is good to be back in touch with everyone via internet, but boy did I enjoy the time at home and off work!!!

We had a wonderful Christmas & New Years! Jonas enjoyed his first Christmas, as did his family! First off I want to say I just realized that I was too absorbed in taking pictures of Jonas & that I did not take any pictures of my family! Really what was I thinking. Pictures of Jonas with his Mamaw, Papa, Great Granny ,Great Grandma & Great Grandpa would've been nice to have. I am still new at this, and I will do better from now on!!! My apologies to all!


We celebrated the birth of our Savior with Brandon's family early Christmas morning, then headed to the Jones' for the second half of the day. And we all received many wonderful presents, thanks to all! Especially Jonas. He did pretty good for his first go round! He even managed to kind of unwrap a few presents! He was just trying to pull off the wrapping paper to put it in his mouth, but it still counts!



Then we rang in the New Year with our wonderful friends at the Sullivans! We are so grateful for knowing that wonderful group and being a part of their lives. Here are some of us on New Year's Eve around the table playing sequence. Deb is trying to explain it to us all! It was a new one for some of us, and took awhile to catch on. AKA: Clint! Just kidding!!! We had a blast. Just spending time with our friends was such a blessing!

We were able to catch up with some old friends and had a wonderful time together at the Green's house. My pictures of that event did not turn out well. I will have to check & see if my mom got some good pictures. But Jonas & I really enjoyed getting to see Stephanie, Emily, & Kara, and of course their beautiful babies & moms!! Thank you guys so much for taking time out of your Holidays to spend with us, it meant a lot! We really missed those of you that were not able to make it. We hope to see you soon!

I just want to take a minute to say how thankful I am for my wonderful family & friends! We are blessed to have so many godly people in our lives that love & care so much for us. We love each and everyone of you. And we thank God for you everyday & the great role you play in each of our lives. We really enjoyed the extra time we were able to spend with everyone over the Holidays. And we are thankful for the time we were able to catch up with old friends! We love you all and God Bless you! You Bless us!!

I just would like to leave everyone with a scripture that God has bringing me back to,

1 Corinthians 1:4-9 I give thanks to God always for you because of the grace of God which was given you in Christ Jesus, that in every way you WERE ENRICHED in him with ALL SPEECH and ALL KNOWLEDGE-even as the testimony to Christ was confirmed among you-so that you are NOT LACKING in ANY spiritual gift, as you wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ; who will sustain you to the end, guiltless in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. God is faithful, by whom you were called into the fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.





We love you and pray that this year is full of God's blessings for you. Just as we know ours to be!
