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

Photos I may or may not have already posted

I saw these photos tonight and thought they were cute, even though most are a week or two old. I may have already posted them; oh well!

Dad is doing awesome! I am so proud of him as he walks so well and does so much on his own already. I took the quints over to my parents' neighborhood for an evening walk. Will and David were not happy to sit in the stroller; they wanted to invite themselves to the lovely houses we were passing. It was a bit crazy but lots of fun, especially to get to hang out with Grandpadad again as one big group!

I need to get to bed and try to beat this annoying cough. No longer laryngitis, just itching throat. 

Love,
Carrie

David. The kids love fuzzy blankets and pacifiers - with or without attached stuffed animals (These are called Wubanubs, and they include the little stuffed animal to help kids keep track of their pacifiers in bed.) We are happy for the kids to remain addicted to pacifiers until our trans-Pacific flight is accomplished - the difference in sound and contentedness is huge! It's funny, because I was pretty staunchly against pacifiers until we had preemies and quints. Turns out they are a "must" for development of sucking and eating ability in the NICU!

Marcie is a HAPPY girl with a big grin for most folks when she's rested

David with Will in background. Two happy boys!

Sweet little Gracie
This is from today, the only photo I have readily accessible of Seth for all you Seth fans. :) He's the one facing the camera, David and Will are to his right and left, respectively, and the girls have their backs to the camera. This is lunch time immediately after church, hence my nicer outfit and the naked babies - we didn't want their church clothes ruined, but also didn't want their play clothes dirtied right before their naps.

  1. As always, thank you for posting pics of the angels! And I must admit, I'm one of those "Seth Fans"! While each and every one of your 6 children are beautiful in their own ways that little Seth just wiggled his way into my heart. Maybe it was because of those "extra prayers" and extended "knee time" I put in for Seth! LOL.....I also have to admit it makes me smile when I see Isaac with any one of the babies. You can just see in his face/eyes that he is truly in love with them all and has grown into his "big brother" position well! Hoping you feel better very soon....and so happy to hear your Dad is doing so well! Prayers answered and all honor be given to the Father!
