Pictures of You-Know-Who!! :-)

Hellooooooooo out there, to whoever might still be coming by here to see if I have posted or not!

I am still alive and well, as is my dear husband and rest of the family! Thankfully!! :-)

We've just been living life and enjoying the blessings of the Lord.

Erin is doing fine with this second pregnancy and the little "peanut" (that is what it looks like at this stage) is progressing right along.

Jaylon is growing by leaps and bounds, is happy as can be and is still holdin' out on the talking for the most part, but he is giving up occasional new words here and there. Daniel said that today it was "shoes", as they were shopping for swim shoes and he told Jaylon to say "shoes" and he did!!! :-)

This past week, he said "cracker" and of course he says his other "normal" words that he has been saying for months, like "Beh-Beh" (that's me!), Papa (that's Ed), Mawmaw and Pawpaw, Mama and Dada, dog, cat, okay. Oh, and he does alot of animal sounds! He does a killer impression of a sheep!! Baaaa-baaaa!! I have it on video and plan to post it here one day when I am at the library!

So, I figure that he says the "names" of those who are the most important/needful to him in his day-to-day life and he makes animal sounds. That's pretty normal male behavior, isn't it? LOL Just kidding....just kidding!!! :-)

The picture below is of the little cutie pie sleeping on the sofa one afternoon tihs past week. I just couldn't resist taking his picture! :-)




The next three are of Daniel, Erin and Jaylon outside of Millstone BBQ, where we met for dinner last Sunday morning after church!



And this last one is of Jaybug playing with his Matchbox and Hot Wheels Tractors and wagons and blocks!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Regarding Summer Inman, the young mother who was murdered on March 22.....the Inmans have all been charged with kidnapping and the two Inman men have been charged with murder. Sandy Inman, Summer's former mother-in-law, has filed a motion saying that she was insane when the crimes were committed and is trying competent to stand trial.

The young man who was the arresting office and also the one who interrogated Sandy, has said she will never get by with this plea. The legal proceedings will just be slowed and delayed further by these legal acrobatics.

Summer's parents and her three little ones are doing amazingly well and we know that it is because of the strength and grace of the Lord working in their behalf.

An autopsy report and recent details of the investigation and charges was in our local paper last week and can be read HERE.

It is still so difficult to comprehend that people are capable of such horrendous acts, but indeed they are.

So many people, myself included, had been praying that the Inman's would agree to a plea-deal, because we were hoping to spare the Cook's a lengthy, detailed trial to contend with, but it is not to be. At least, not at this point.

We covet your continued prayers for Summer's children and parents.

Well, it is getting a bit late this Saturday evening and I must be going to bed.

Thanks so much to those of you who still frequent my blog.

I always have the intention of blogging more but it just never seems to come to fruition.

There's so much I want to blog about and hopefully will manage to do in time.

I hope you are having an awesome spring wherever in this wonderful world you are!! :-)

Photo #3 is my favorite - so good I think you should frame it! . . .Very sad situation regarding Summer; difficult to comprehend such violence.

Joyce said...

Such a sad story....I hope the legal portion moves quickly for the family"s sake.

Love the curled up in a blanket photo! And the photo with the trucks reminded me so much of my boys when they were younger.

Such an awful situation in Summer's case. On;y God's grace can sustain her family.

My favorite is the Hot Wheels! Eva has just started playing cars with her big brother & it is so much fun watching David Riley patiently show her how to make them move.

I've been praying for Summer's family and all of you. This looks like it will be a long hard process.

Of course you still have people checking to see if you blogged lately! :) Jaylon is growing so big. Keeping you all in our prayers. Tammy

Thanks to each of you for your kind thoughts and prayers for Summer's family and children. My heart breaks each time I see them come into church, though they all seem to be happy and doing well. It is truly the grace and strength of the Lord that is seeing them through this difficult time and the prayers of you precious ladies and so many others.

Been thinking about you my friend! Your little guy really is growing. Aren't grandkids wonderful! We got to spend a week with ours last month and will be in Arkansas for a week next month then we are all going to Florida for a week. I am sure we will have a blast!
Still praying for Summer's poor family, I just can't imagine what they must be going thru.
Take care!
until next time... nel

I'm still hanging in there with you! I haven't been posting much either as we prepared for Ashley's wedding. It went well and now I'm looking forward to blogging again.

Love your blog background. Very fun.

Love Jaylon's pics. Such a proud grandma! :)

Have a great weekend.

Jewel said...

Hi Nel and Angie...it is so good to see you two.
We all do have such busy lives, hm?
Yes, grandchildren are awesome, Nel, even if he does wear me out! :-) I wouldn't have it any other way!
Yes, Angie, I saw the post where your daughter got married but I've not had a chance to read it yet but I will!!!
((HUGS)) to you both!

I haven't been here in ages, I'm sorry!! So exciting that Erin is pregnant again, how far along is she? I'm 26 weeks along with my 2nd bub too. :)

Jewel said...

Hi Stace!!! Congratulations to you and Aiden on your new little one!! :-) Erin is just about 4 months along and we are excited, though I can't imagine loving another one as much as I love little Jaylon but I know I will!! I'm coming over to your blog to catch up! I've not been on the computer much because of having dialup and it being so slow but we now have access to highspeed if I can just find the time to get hooked up to it!!! :-) It is so good to hear from you, Stace! ((HUGS))
