Brooklynn Update

It has been awhile since I have posted photos of our little Brookie. She has grown so much in the past few months, that I feel guilty for not having posted anything in so long. When I say Brooklynn has an affinity for shoes, it's a massive understatement. She LOVES to put adult shoes on... Grandpa's shoes, Mommy's shoes, Uncle Matt's shoes... and below, she has Aunt Beth's shoes on. These pics are quite humorous.Above: Brookie kept falling over from the boots, so Julie picked up to help out. Above: It's much easier to walk in big-girl shoes when you have something to hold on to. Below: Brooklynn has decided that it is time for her to feed herself now. Of course, chocolate pudding is the best choice! Her chocolate mustache and beard is the best ever! Below: Mommy and Aunt Beth decided to join in on the fun! Chocolate mustaches for everyone! Below: Brooklynn is tall enough to climb onto a chair or the couch all by herself now. Wow! The trick to to convince her to sit on her bottom... so as to not fall out onto the floor. Nothing gets our hearts racing more than the fear of a head-dive onto the floor.

It's a boy!

Matt and I had a bright and early appointment yesterday morning to find out that we are having a baby boy. Here are a couple pics of the ultrasounds. We considered posting the "anatomical" photo, but we didn't want other babies to be self-conscious...just kidding...but seriously.

Updates

Hi All, I know it's been awhile since we've posted anything. Life has been pretty hectic, although we have much to be thankful for. Instead of writing a nice, long post... I'll bullet a few points: 1) Baby Tibbs -I am in my 19th week of pregnancy... and feeling like a champ! -With that in mind, I do have some minor back pain. Ugh. -Matt and I find out the gender of our little one on Friday... needless to say, we're super excited! -My latest cravings are cold milk, graham crackers with peanut butter, fresh grapefruit and smoothies. -I have yet to post a baby-belly photo, because I'm a bit insecure about my thick middle section. I promise I'll post one soon... -I can feel the baby move now... wow... it's pretty amazing to say the least. I can't wait till Matt can feel it too! -I am overwhelmed in trying to decide what is the safest, best, most cost-effective baby 'stuff' out there. How can we really know? I could use some help in this area. 2) Work -Matt is still contracting himself for 'odd jobs' in the theater/sound/film/music field. He's plugging away. -Work for me has been super busy... and I've been trying to pull ten-hour days to try and catch up. -Details spared, Matt has an interview with a University for a full-time faculty position. We're praying God will provide away for our future. And that's it for now...
