I shot this yesterday afternoon shortly after Will arrived home. After the chaos of feeding them, the quiet of four sleeping babies couldn't be any louder.

This is the blog for Gavin and Carrie Jones and family. We live in Papua New Guinea and are working to see lives transformed by the living Word of God through Bible translation. Gavin is a helicopter pilot. Carrie, who has her degree in Public Health, works in the lab at our busy rural clinic. Our son, Isaac, was born in 2004 and our quintuplets, Will, David, Marcie, Seth, and Grace, were born in 2012.
Let love and faithfulness never leave you; bind them around your neck, write them on the tablet of your heart. The you will win favor and a good name in the sight of God and man. Trust in the Lord with all you heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight. -Proverbs 3:3-6

ReplyDeleteAbsolutely precious-shouts of Thanksgiving from Florida :)
ReplyDeleteI just love it!!!! Awesome!
ReplyDeleteMay you have many hours of them all sleeping at the same time. Wouldn't it be wonderful if they all got on the same schedule - or is it better to have it staggered a bit? Whatever - just thank God they are home and appear to be doing well.
ReplyDeleteBlessings,
Gail Boemker
Love it!!! Ahhh so precious. Keep up the great work!!!
ReplyDeleteThat is just adorable-From Canada
ReplyDeleteOh how adorable! I hope you all enjoyed it ... we're all curious how long it lasted. ;) Love to all! sharon b.
ReplyDeleteThey are beautiful! SO glad you got them all to sleep at once and can have empty arms for a couple minutes! :) Praying that Seth will join the ranks soon!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing them with us Gavin boy!
ReplyDeleteDarling little snoozers!
ReplyDeleteAbsolutely precious!!
ReplyDeleteNKL
Miracles, each and every one of them! Beautiful sleeping angels....you are SO blessed!
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine what it must be like when they are all crying! Precious little ones!
ReplyDeleteJulie abell
Oh my goodness! How beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOn another note, what are those thing they are sleeping in? They look like a cross between a bassinet and a bouncy chair. I must know because I must have one for my next baby ;)
Thinking of you and your beautiful babies every day.

They are Fisher Price "Newborn Rock 'n Play Sleepers" They fold up compactly, rock, and are very comfortable. All the kids love them and sleep great in them. They are rated for up to 25 lb babies.
DeleteThe video worked well - what a great, peaceful time! So happy for you. This is truly a great day for thanksgiving. God is so amazing.
DeleteWorked for me , pretty good they are all sleeping at the same time, but you should use that time to rest!
ReplyDeleteThanks Gavin for making and posting this video. It is so precious to see all four home and together. Praying that Seth will be home for Christmas. However, we are all your prayer team. As precious as this is, you need to show us reality! How about the feeding time with all of them fussing or crying! Then we would be much more driven to pray. Of course, I realize that there aren't any free hands at that time.
ReplyDeletePraying for you all. God's blessings abound.

IT WORKED FANTASTIC FOR ME....I LOVED IT !!!!!! So happy Will finally made it home...I liked the other pictures of them all home too. Iv'e got the pictures printed and on my refrigerator !!!...Well now it's just "running" to see Seth, and maybe with all of them home You two can relax somewhat...Praying for all, to be more relaxed, have the help you need, to get your rest...everyone stays healthy, and all the Babies, get on a schedule grow and are enjoyed by all....Happy Thanksgiving to everyone You, We, all are very thankful how far the babies have come....I know they get lots of kisses but maybe you can give them one from me... And the "Little Fighter" Seth Too......Praise God !!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI loved the video!!! Thanks so much for sharing. They are all beautiful. Congratulations on all the homecomings!!! So happy to hear Seth is doing so much better. He will be home before you know it. I pray for you all every day and always especially for Seth. Gavin, I have also prayed for your patience. I was so touched that you chose to share that and ask for prayer. I think everyone knows how much you love your babies, but that doesn't mean it hasn't turned your world upsde down and that adjustments have to be made. It is an honor to say a special prayer for you. Happy Thanksgiving to you all and God bless each of you, you are all true blessings.
ReplyDeletePrecious!
ReplyDeleteSo awesome to see four of them at home! Praying for your whole family.
ReplyDeleteOh wow. What a beautiful sight and a wonderful answer to the prayers of so many around the world. I tear up every time I see them - the photo's and video are lovely. Praying Seth will be home soon too. We know the days ahead will be busier than you could have ever imagined and pray that God will give you enough patience when yours is worn thin, enough rest when your heads are weary, enough faith when days are dark, and joy abundant as you gaze on these precious babes.
ReplyDeleteSending love and prayers from Australia,
Sandra.
How very wonderful to see the four of them sleeping in their own room. Thanks for sharing this with us. It almost gave me the urge to help in the nursary. Have a wonderful thanksgiving.
ReplyDeleteJudith
almost the best thanksgiving blessing, now just to get Seth home and all will be complete!
ReplyDeleteSo cute and precious little ones! So much to be thankful for this day!
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving. What a precious family. Soon Seth will be home with you all, too. I continue to pray for all of you. I pray for Isaac, that he, too, will rejoice rather than feel slighted. I'm sure that he can be a big help with his brothers and sisters, also. May God continue to bless you all as you begin a ne phase of family life. One day you will be back in PNG flying people like us around. I don't know if you were the one who flew us in or out of Ukarumpa when we visited Dave and Anne Smith last March. Barbara Hudson
ReplyDeleteThat is so wonderful, praying for all you little ones. Thank you for sharing your journey with all your beautiful children, all 6. Bless you

Hi Gavin and Carrie and Isaac. We are so thankful that God has blessed your journey with the quintuplets in amazing ways. We pray often and it is encouraging to hear that many of these prayers are answered. This doesn't take away however from the enormity of your situation and learning to deal with a very fast growing family. May God continue to supply you with additional loads of energy and strength in the coming months as you feel your world has shrunk to the needs of 5 little ones. We wish we could be there to give you physical support however as that is not possible we will continue to pray for you daily. Love to you all. xxxx
