TYLER WILLIAM HAS ARRIVED!!

Hello Everyone!

It is with great joy, excitement, and relief that Kelly and I announce the arrival of Tyler William Gibson, who made his debut Thursday, October 30th, at 2330EST, weighing in at 8 pounds 4ounces. Mommy, Daddy and baby are very tired, but doing great and we should be home Saturday. We are currently at Reston Hospital and visitors are welcome! Thank y'all for all your thoughts and prayers. Kelly did a great job!

Love,

~ Tim, Kelly and Tyler

39 Week Belly Pictures

Well here are the final belly pictures before Tyler joins us on Thursday... seems so strange to say that. We took the boys for a nice long walk this afternoon. Tim used a tracker on his phone and it registered that we went just over 1.5 miles. It felt great to be outside, but I'm pretty sore now. Oh well, it was worth it. After our walk I changed out of my jeans and threw on a pair of Tim's pajama pants to be more comfortable. Very fashionable don't you think?

39 Week Ultrasound and Baby Update

Today we went for our FINAL doctor appointments! During the ultrasound Tyler was measuring 8lbs 3oz. According to the technician there is a +/- 19oz accuracy; so he may only be 7lbs or (my luck) he could be 9lbs!!! The important thing is everything is still looking great. During the appointment with our OB I was examined and am now 3cm dilated and 70% effaced. As the doctor left the exam room she said "I'll see you Thursday if not sooner!" So that's where we stand. :o)

37 Week Ultrasound and Baby Update

Today was doctor appointment day. We saw the OB first. I am still 1cm dilated, but a "loose" 1cm according to the doctor and my cervix is 60% effaced. Since they don't want me to go past my 11/1 due date, the office is calling the hospital to see about scheduling an inducement the final week of October. At the Specialist they did another Biophysical Profile and they FINALLY gave us a 3D picture!!!!! Everything is looking great and here is our little boy!!!!

36 Week Ultrasound and Baby Update

Today we went for two doctor appointments: one with our OB and the other with the Specialist for an ultrasound. I am still 1cm dilated and Tyler's head is very low. My OB has taken me off the Procardia as of this evening, so I am crossing my fingers and toes that my contractions don't get out of control. Basically our goal is to keep Tyler in for one more week so that I am a full 37 weeks and then he can come if he's ready. At the Specialist they did another Biophysical Profile and they also measured him. Everything is looking great and Tyler currently weighs 6lbs 12oz. They said that they do not want me to go past my 11/1 due date if I make it that far. So if he hasn't come by 11/1, I should have an appointment at the hospital to be induced on that day. So right now it's just a waiting game. His nursery is about 99% complete; there are just a few wall hangings left to hang. All of his clothes, towels, blankets and sheets have been washed, folded and put away. His diaper bag is packed and ready to go and I just need to put my stuff in a bag.
