radiohead here we come! woo hoo!

So for those of you who didn't know it, yesterday was my birthday. I am now the very,very excited owner of a brand new iphone! OMG! I love it, I love it, I love it! This post is actually coming from the phone! We went out last night and here's a pic of me and Heather. Taken with my new favorite present ever! Thanks to everyone who came out! I love you guys!

My friends Andy and Melissa have the cutest, cutest little girl, Ryan. Somehow between all of the busyness we never see them anymore and we really love them! Luckily they were at the BBQ we went to on the 4th. A great surprise, because I didn't know they'd be there. I got to snap some shots of Ryan for the first time ever. Man am I lucky because it sure does it make it so much easier to get great photo's since my friends children all are so photogenic!

I think this might be my favorite

oh, and this is my other favorite :)

I told you there'd be more

Erin Gregory (now Erin Hickey) and I have been friends since we were two years old. When I was young my mom was pretty worried that something was going to happen to me. As a result, I didn't have as much freedom as Erin did. That did not stop us though, if I wasn't allowed to go outside and play, Erin would come sit on my front porch and play Barbies through the screen door with me. And even though I knew that it was impossible for her to differentiate between the ants on Mrs Hill's sidewalk. The ones she called her friends. I didn't say anything. She loved those ants! Now that is true friendship! Being friends for as long as we have really makes us more like sisters. Her and her children and her husband Billy are truly my family. So that is why there have been so many pictures of Braylin and now there will be so many pictures of Tripp also. Good thing her kids are so darn good looking!

Braylin's first look at her baby brother

All she wanted to do at first was feed him and give him a "binky"

To celebrate her becoming a big sister I took Braylin to pick out a present. Guess what she picked? A camera, what a perfect gift from Aunt Shelley to my perfect neice! It's digital and pink and has a flash and everything!

Finally, some of Tripp by himself. This is supposed to be his post isn't it!

He's already winking at us! Slick!

Just a real quick update to let you know that Mama and baby are all fine and well. I just got home from Vivio's and need to get ready cause we are going to a friends house for dinner, but I wanted to give you a quick peek.

This may be my new favorite picture. Look at that look of awe and amazement that this little baby is hers! Her little "fruit"! Do you think that she loves her baby brother?

Many more pics to follow!

I just got a call from Erin, who is supposed to be going to the hospital tonight so that they can induce her labor. They are on their way to the hospital right now because she started bleeding and they may have to do an emergency c-section. Erin can still feel the baby kicking so she thinks everything will be okay, but as you can imagine, we're all a little worried. The plan was for me to stay the night with Braylin and take her to the hospital tomorrow to meet her new little brother or sister. Her new little brother or sister whom she insists is going to be named "Fruit". She love fruit. I'm still going to go and stay with her, the baby just may be arriving a little sooner than expected! So please, say a prayer for Erin and the baby!

Here's some pictures I took of Braylin the other day, in one of her last days as an "only child".
