Like Father like Son

Hunter's mom gave me a picture of Hunter in his going home outfit and the outfit, so we put William in it for a few pictures. He was pretty cooperative at first...

But then...

A few of my favorite things...

Bath Time

Reading with Daddy

Vibrating bouncy chair, blankie, paci...what's not to love?

4 Weeks Old

Rocking the blond mohawk

Trying to catch a smile

Hating the snow suit

On Sunday, Elizabeth Wiggs took some pictures of William for us. Check some of them out on her blog.

Prayer for this Child

I think I am finally fairly up to date with the pictures. Sweet William is changing everyday. Here are some pictures when I was trying to get him to look at the camera (in other words, I was trying to move the camera to wherever he was looking). This turned out to be more difficult than I had imagined, but I got some cute shots anyway.

Here is part of a Sara Groves song I have been listening to...Prayer for This Child. In the past 2 weeks, my first taste of motherhood, I have learned that everyday with a baby is a new lesson in faith.

I only have two eyes - be all seeing

I only have two hands - be everywhere

I do not know enough - to be all knowing

I give this baby up into your care

I do not know how, how to pray for this child

I want to guard him from everything wicked and wild

but in the trial, in the trial, I learned to hold on

And in the trial, in the trial, I learned to hold on to the heart of God

Meeting the Family

Last Saturday, William met his great grandparents and some more of his aunts and uncles. He slept through most of it, but we can show him the pictures later. The picture at the top right is of all the William Woodrow Jones'- Senior, Junior, III, and IV. The bottom middle and right pictures are of William with his three aunts and three uncles...don't you like the symmetry?
