Hectic is the word of the month!

Here is a quick picture update of what the St. Pete Tompkins have been up to! August was pretty much Vanessa's senior recital and graduation party. She looked and sounded absolutely beautiful! As always!

We were sitting behind Dad & Mom and thought this would be a sweet picture of them adoring their daughter!

Tummy time!

She rolled over and was so scared! We couldn't help but laugh because her eyes were squeezed shut - it was too cute!

Talking to her Godmother

Cousin time! They love each other!

Love this picture

Daddy will give her anything she wants with this kind of look!

Daddy has to do the mohawk :)

Yes Sofia was eating Isabella's head - beware Cecilia!!

I could stare at her sleeping all day/night...

September has been pretty hectic. We had a closing date set for 9/30. Our mortgage broker was confident that we could close a couple weeks early. We needed to be out of our condo on the 18th, so closing earlier would be perfect. Unfortunately, it didn't work out that smoothly. Basically from 9/11 to 9/25 we were told we should be closing the next day, every day. Then we'd hear "we can't today but most likely tomorrow". It was so frustrating!! Finally we closed on the 25th! We have been staying with family since the 18th. We haven't moved into our home yet because we had to replace all the floors in our home. The new floors are almost down - so we'll move in this weekend!

This is what our condo looked like for a week. Packing isn't easy with a baby!

Here's Andrew ripping up the carpet. There was wall to wall carpet... literally. Including the kitchen and bathrooms! One bathroom had pink shag carpet. I'm so mad we didn't take before pictures. We meant to but, well you know how it goes...

Our house is really coming along! It's amazing how painting and replacing floors can drastically change a home.

Can't have enough sleeping baby pictures!

That's all folks! I'll post a blog with pictures of our home as soon as we're settled in. We hope everyone is doing well. We can't wait to see you! Ryan & Mary, you're in our prayers... such an exciting time! Love you all!
