Jonesy my love,
How are you one-year-old already? Time sure does fly when you are the third baby. It doesn't seem like it's been a full year since you made your sweet debut in the early morning hours of St. Patrick's Day. Like your brother just a year earlier, you too had a rough little start and an 8 day stay in the nursery.
You were kind of an ornery little thing until you reached your 4th month, then it was smooth sailing. You have been the best baby since then, never testing our patience. You have been a little late on most milestones, instead of sitting up at 6 months it was more like 7 or 8. You didn't crawl for a while either and you still don't really crawl on all four's, you still look like a wounded soldier :). That's okay though, all on your own time.
You are easily frustrated by your big sister, but I would be too if she were constantly in my face. Scout is sometimes mean to you but there are sweet little moments when you two play next to each other and it makes me yearn for the future when the two of you will be best buddies (I hope). Oh how I love your big beautiful eyes and lips (and your chin that you got from me). I can't wait to watch you grow.
Happy Birthday, sweet baby Jones.
Love you to pieces,
Mama
