A day with the Jones': It is going too fast

I am going to cry because my sweet little baby is growing too fast. I need time to stand still...So I can cherish every moment of my 3 little boys lives. Time is taking it all too quickly from me.
1 whole month has passed since little Grayson was born, I can't believe it. He is so sweet and really knows his mommy. He puts up with a lot from his loving brothers, kisses, pats, holding and tickles.
There is something very special about this little angel. I love his preious little squeaks and grunts and how he calms a soon as I am near. I love to hold him all day and just look at him and wonder where this life wiil take him and what I will learn from him. I hope I can be the mom he needs me to be and provide the foundation for him to be a fine, upstanding , righteous gentleman.
He is my son and I feel so blessed and eternally grateful to my father in heaven for sending me this beautiful gift. I am amazed at how much love you have as parent. A child will never know truly how much love their parents have for them until they become a parent themselves.

Cute things my kids say

EASTON: woke up in middle of night saying his legs hurt. 10 minutes later he said "Mom my legs don't hurt they are better, they stopped beeping". I think they were asleep and he called it "beeping"
We went to great grandma Cloteels whom Easton ADORES! He was following her around the house and as they went downstairs he said to her " come on grandma, you can do it, be careful-don't fall, you can come all by yourself!" Once they made it to the bottom he proclaimed "Good Job grandma Clo you did all by yourself!!."
Garet is in Ohio at a show and Easton really wanted him. He came up to me and said in a sweet sad/whining voice "Mom I want daddy. I need him soo much." I said I know he will be home on Monday. Easton said "Monday? I need him. I need to hug him and hold him, kiss him and love him, mom. I neeeeed my dadddy." It was soo precious. He misses him soo much.
BARBAQUE EASTON SAYS "BARBACUTE"
Came home from feeding and working with Garet and said 'Mommy the elk tripped on me." Meaning: an elk ran him into the ground, no injuries just a few small scrapes and a face full of dirt.
I told Easton I had a delicious treat for him he said "REALLY! Oh thanks, thanks so much sweet heart" He continued to call me sweet heart the entire morning. 5/27/08

MASON: "DADADADADADADA" and shakes his little noggin back and forth in a no no no motion.
Pushes his little lips together like a pucker or kissy lips, eyes closed tightly and blows. It is soo cute.
He also screams at the top of his lungs if he thinks Easton is too close and invading his personal space. He loves him from a distance.
Bursts instantly into a screaming cry, with tears streaming down his tight little cheeks, the minute he looses sight of me. The moment I return it STOPS, all at once, and he flashes a HUGE smile and giggle. Priceless!
STICKS HIS CUTE LITTLE TOUNGUE OUT LIKE A SPEAR AND BITES ON IT. HE IS WORKING ON GETTING HIS TOP TEETH IN.
Loves to laugh! He will laugh at you if you laugh, or just laugh at you to get your attention. It is soo cute.
