Baking

We spent the day at Tina's house making homemade cinnamon rolls and chicken pot pie! I didn't get a pic of the pot pie (which was to die for) but I did get one of the cinnamon rolls.
While we were making these....


Emeline was busy doing this!

(sorry about the sound, I tried to upload it twice and it won't fix itself)

Jones family update

Hmmm... where to start. Little Eme is getting to be that little Aries baby girl I always worried she would turn out to be. haha.. don't get me wrong, she is the love of my life and sometimes when she is being naughty, it is VERY hard not to laugh at her. BUT, I guess it is my fault for having her in April, and on top of that, naming her after my dear sweet grandmother Emeline. She lives that name to a T!! She is the sassiest, most defiant, independent little girl I have ever met. She is scared of the most random things, and LOVES the most scarriest things. She will not ride on the merry go round because she doesn't like fake horses, zebras, cartoon characters, santas, taget dogs, chick fil a cows, or anything of that sort. BUT, she will be the first to climb on your back on put her hands up in the air like a gymnist. Or, become best friends with a bull mastif that is 4 times the size of her! She lets her dad throw her all over the place, swing her above his head, make her do flips on the bed, you name it and she is having the time of her life! I just don't understand!

She is in her hitting stage and I could just break her little hand off! It makes me so crazy, I can hardly stand it. She loves to point her finger at you and tell you no. She loves to pretend you have hurt her feelings more than 100 times a day! She runs around and talks to everything she sees. She loves to say "what's that?" "NO!" "please" "uh huh" (that one's my favorite) and hundreds of other words and new ones every day. She is saying EVERYTHING you say, to the best of her ability, it makes me laugh. I know I should have cleaned up my mouth a LONG time ago! oops... She LOVES to be home and watch shows every chance she gets. We are still "playing" with the potty, but I have come to the realization that I will have 2 in diapers for a while. BOOOO! That's the update on little Em's.
Brady is enjoying his new job. I say new, but he has been working for the CAP Weatherization program for almost a year now. He is out in the community fixing homes and loving it. (other than the normal annoying things you will always deal with any job) He has been so busy working full time, and them coming home to find his wife having yet another small project for him to do. (mainly kitchen stuff) He is so willing to work at home when he gets home from work. He is such a good daddy to his daughter, and husband to his wife. We are so thankful to have him in our lives.
I of course am still working at the emergency food pantry and loving the easyness of the job. There isn't a lot of stress working where I am, and I am very comfortable there. I have put in for a new job, but just found out some politics about it and might stay put until after the baby comes in March. I am the second counselor in the Primary Presidency right now and that keeps me pretty busy, but I really enjoy this presidency. I work with some awesome ladies!
I am about 7 months pregnant now and doing pretty awesome. Other than the extra baggage which I let get me down at times, I couldn't have asked for a better pregnancy. I have only puked once and had about a month of not wanting to eat. Other than that, this little boy has just been baking in the oven quite well. I hope to have him in March and be as mellow as my other two brothers that were born in March. We'll just have to wait and see!
