The Gibbons have 4 Teenagers in the House!!! AARRGGGGG!

So yes, it is true, I have a 4th teenager in my home. Thank Goodness it is not another girl or we may never get Chris out of the Fetal Position. The hormones race in our home and they are now joined by the male version, however there are days I am not so sure he is male, cause those highs and lows in his emotions are pretty close to that of his sisters. Well, all I can say is, "Now it is time to learn from Chris and the male perspective of teenagers." Seeing as I was a female teenager and not the nicest of those I may add, I do not tend to put up with any CRAP from the other 3 females in my house. So this whole Male teenager thing has me stumped, Seeing as the only thing I have to compare it to, is living with my brother, who I pretty much was just tortured by him and his friends, and the infamous boyfriends - Which really doesn't count, cause they tend put on the good face for girlfriends. So I am now entering uncharted waters - Please everyone pray for me - I actually think boy teenagers might be my saving grace, especially after I live through the Nasty's with the girl teenagers. (They definitely don't mention teenagers when you come home from the hospital with a really cute, yummy baby - Cruel Joke I think!)

Happy 13th "GIBBY" You are my superstar!

Ok, everyone always asks how we came up with the name "Stone". Having 3 girls in 2 1/2 years we knew we wanted to try for a boy, so we also knew we didn't want a huge space between our kids, seeing as he would probably be our last. When I got pregnant with #4 I was hoping, but not completely convinced, we were having a boy! Then comes the Ultrasound, and there was no mistaking he let us know that he had all the right parts! So hence the name game begins. We had lots of names, but none we could agree on, Then it happened... Watching Dateline NBC one night, I saw the Anchor named "Stone Phillips" and that was it, I knew that was the name. Now we went over in our heads all of the teasing and nicknames that would come with his name, but we knew that with 3 older sisters, he needed a strong, masculine name, so hence "Andrew Stone Gibbons" came to be! Why, the Andrew, well I didn't want another Christopher Gibbons, so we used Chris's middle name as Stone's 1st and have always called him "Stone". The name mystery Revealed. Now, since having Stone, we have only met or heard of 2 others named Stone, So it is a unique one and he is every bit of the meaning of his name!

Stone: Strong
