Announcing Elijah Franklin Jones!

He's here...thank you Lord God for your grace and provision. Baby son and mother both doing extremely well. He was born at 12:15 am on Saturday, Jan. 29th, at home.
We got the boys up to come and see their new baby brother.

Here he is just minutes after birth.


He has lots of dark, curly hair as you can see. He was being weighed by the midwife in this photo, and weighed in at 8 lbs, 9 oz. 19 1/2 inches long.


Eli with his very happy Grammy. We are so excited that we got to meet him just hours before flying home. Crazy day went well and was lots of fun, and then the birth. God is good.
