DA DA

Hey everyone! Well our Memorial Day was okay. We had to stay inside which was not fun, but we made it work. Kara (tracy's sister) had her little boy a couple weeks ago so we have just been hanging out there with his side of the family. Its been really good because it has kindof reminded me about how glad I am that my baby sleeps through the night. HEHE j/k. I have enjoyed watching him grow and remebering the stepping stones that Italia has made and looking back at those times. His name is Austin J. Cunningham and he was 8 pounds 2 ounces, 21 inches long. They ended up taking him C-section so that was good. Kara is recovering well and she is doing good learning the life of being a mom. So is their any of MY sisters that have anything to tell me? HEHE. Michelle I am just so excited to hear that you are having a girl! I am so excited for you! I hope you are doing well and still feeling great!
Well our family is doing good. Tracy just started with another company. The bad thing is that it is a little past Toole and it takes about 1 and 1/2 hours to get there but that just means that I am going to be the driver of a hot truck for about 1 to 2 years. lol! But he seems like he is going to like it. He is getting $4 more an hour because of the distance which is nice. My work is doing okay. We are still waiting to hire another secretary, and me and the other ones are just getting burned out. We are anticipating the day where we can finally get all caught up. I can't wait.
Italia is doing really well. She is growing and growing. The last time I went into the doctors she measured 2 feet 2 inches. So almost half of my height! The doctor looked at me and was like how tall is your husband do you have anyone that is tall in your family. I said well my 1 brother is over 6 ft. but the rest is about 5 feet 7 inches and under. And he was like well either she is going to be tall or she is going to shrink. Then he was checking her motor skills and well if you have ever talked to me on the phone for more than 5 seconds you all know she is doing well with that part. But I told him yeah she is sitting up to. So he sat her up and wrapped his arms around her to protect her and kindof paused and slowly pulled them away, and looked at me like wow. Then he tells me she is not supposed to sit up by herself until about 9 months, and I was like well she has been since she was about 5 months. So to brag about my girl she is doing amazing. 94% for weight, and 99% for height who would have guessed. She is so close to crawling too. She even scoots backwards a little bit. And man does she roll! Everywhere it doesn't matter if she is on her tummy she is rolling. She is also getting to the point where if she has something that she shouldn't and you take it away, the crying begins. She is also started to put sounds together I think. Tracy and I swear she says DA DA sometimes. She is doing a few new things. She is starting to stick out her bottom two teeth and moving the mouth up and down saying AH YA AH YA and sometimes DA DA. I know you can't see but you better believe I am imitating her right now trying to describe it as I am doing it lol! Also she is starting to scream so high that she like loses her voice in the middle and then it comes in and out! She is such a bright little girl. Its kindof hard for me to say wow she is doing that already when I don't really know what average is. So I tell everyone that if my next kid doesn't do what she does I am going to think that something is wrong.
Well I love you all! Sorry my posts are so long! Just lots to say hehe. or brag lol! its true!
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend and I hope to see you all soon!
Love ya
THE JONES FAMILY

Rollin' Rollin' Rollin'

Hello everyone! Sorry I have not written in a while! I am have been really busy at work and home. We are down a secretary so other than sitting at the front I am just trying to get things done! Well our family is doing well. Tracy was on a job for about 1 month and now he is layed off for about 2 weeks until they get another job going! He is kindof excited and not to have a break. He has been able to tend the girl during the day so its been good for him to have daddy daughter time. Italia is doing wonderful as always! She seems to like the new house. Tracy leaves the sliding door open every once in a while to let the cool breeze comes in and she just thinks that air on her face is a great time. She is starting to roll from her back to her belly and when she is on her belly her legs are kicking kicking and her but is about 3 inches off the ground! If she could figure out what to do with those annoying arms that hold her back she could probably win a marathon. She is sitting up really well. And obviously she is eating well too! Every once in a while I let her grab her spoon and well it never ends up in the place it needs to! She has also decided that if she is going to hold her bottle she is going to tease herself with it. In and out and In and out! Tracy's mom and dad got a little rainforest jumperoo! WOW! Does she love that! I put her down in front of the mirror last night so she could watch herself jump! She just thought that other baby was the funniest thing! She will be 6 months old tomorrow and weight about 25 pounds I swear lol! She is starting to form michelin tire rolls on her legs! Its the best! Well I love you all and hope everyone is doing well! I miss you guys! Happy Mothers Day!

So I was just wondering if we could get some answers from you guys! I was wondering if you think that Italia looks more like Tracy or more like me! I just think it would be interesting to see some of your comments!
