some new pictures

Toby is officially a little boy. He discovered how to blow milk bubbles with a straw! (documented below) I can't tell you how this thrilled me--let's just say, not at all. I really had hoped that these little tricks wouldn't show up for at least another couple of years. Let the fun begin!

And just look at those little boy legs...this was taken just minutes after one of his biggest falls to date. We had to capture the scraped knees.

visit with the Dillards

Last week the Dillards came in town for a visit, which helped me pass the time while waiting for this baby to arrive. We had a great time and Toby and Caleb were fast friends. Here are some pictures from the Botanical Gardens.

The boys sharing a snack...or should I say, learning to share a snack.

Lance and Heather...I'm pretty sure that is a scarf Caleb is playing with...you guys ok with that?! :)

new rooms

Presenting...

TOBY'S BIG BOY ROOM!we moved him into a new room and a new bed a couple months ago, but I have been really bad about updating the blog. He loves his new room and is totally adjusted to the change.

Toby has also been helping me get the baby's room ready. His favorite thing to do is take all the stuffed animals off the shelf and pile them in the glider, then he climbs in and pulls them all on top of himself. He was a big help as we finished the room and he will be a great big brother!
Update on the baby...I have decided that this baby is going to be our unpredictable child. During this pregnancy the heart rate has been anything from 130-175! (Toby, was in the 150's the entire pregnancy) It was head down for several weeks, then turned breech, and is now head down again. And it's FULL of energy...moving constantly. I would have thought by now it would slow down on the moving due to lack of space, but no! We go to the doctor on Tuesday to see if anything is happening.
