What's New Around Here?

Not a picture post...just an update!

Kyle: is enjoying his new job at the Federal Pen in Pollock. His schedule is a little different than we are used to, but it is working out for us.

Miranda: is counting down the days until Summer vacation!!! I love my job, love my students, love my work family, but LOVE being home with my three babies :) I plan to go on several "daycations" with the kids, do another "freezer cooking" session for the fall, and continue working out. I've been walking/jogging, and doing a little bit with weights. So far i've lost 8 lbs, which isn't a lot, but is getting me closer to my goal weight. I would like to lose ALL baby weight: meaning the weight that has been added for all 3 pregnancies! LOL

Taylor: is reading up a storm. According to her reader levels, she is reading at a 2-3rd grade already! She will be going to Kindergarten this fall at Pollock Elementary, which is where Kyle and I both went.

Chase: is really loving to play "pretend". His new love is superheroes! Batman, Spiderman, Ironman...he loves em! He also has a new favorite animal, a possum! Ewwww! LOL We found him a Webkinz stuff animal possum at Cracker Barrel, which he takes everywhere we go, and it makes sure it sleeps in his bed with him at night.

Addison: is 4 months now, and is doing baby pushups better than a pro! She has began to get on her knees to rock, and try to crawl. She usually just pushes herself forward, but hey-it gets her to her toys that are across the carpet! LOL I figure she will be crawling in a month or so. More pics of this to come :)

Jones Kids in Yellow!

*Erica took these one day while she was watching them! Chase and Addison were both wearing yellow, and Taylor was upset because she didn't match. After much drama, she changed into a yellow shirt too! LOL
