Pics of the house and landscaping (so far)

Now that things have greened up a little with the most recent rain, I thought I would post a couple of pics of the house and landscaping that we have worked so hard on.

This first couple of pics are from the street. The big trees in the front were from the previous owner as well as most of the hedges in front of the house. Most of our work has been in the back yard. We really like the black mulch as it provides more of a contrast to the colors.

Here is view from the back porch. The smaller trees in the yard are some of the 14 we planted last year. The back yard used to have the same big trees as are outside the fence, but the previous owner wanted a big yard so he cut them down. Coming from West Texas, I cant get enough trees.

Here are some more misc pics of the landscaping and stuff we have done to fix up the house so far.... Enjoy.

Well, Here are some new pictures of baby Jones!


We had our ultra-sound this morning and everything looked great.

There were fingers, toes, legs, arms, a head, and a great heart beat, all of which we were very thankfull for. Baby weighed 10 oz and is on track growth-wise, and all organs/ systems look good right now. Which of certianly made me excited.

I think that the most exciting thing for Brian was the "little boy parts" that were front and center! It looks like we will be adding a little boy to the Jones clan... so start praying for me now! And any advise is aprreciated!!! Enjoy the pictures.

Hello from South Carolina! Stephanie convinced me that having a blog site is the way to go with keeping everyone up on the Jones' "Baby Story". So, here we are.

There is not too much going on right now, I am feeling great most of the time now that I am well into the second trimester. According to Brian, my hormonal mood swings are killing him, but I think that he just wants a reason to whine.

We went to the doc a couple of weeks ago and Brian had to have some blood drawn for a test, and you would have thought that he had just endured the most excruciating procedure known to man, the big baby. Good thing that I am the one who will be giving birth!

We have an ultra-sound coming up on Tues, May 8th, and we should find out gender at that point, so we will post those pictures and news next week. Till then, take care!
