He's Here!

Joseph Alan Tooley entered the world on April 3, 2009 at 2:35pm. He weighed in at 9 pounds, 4 ounces, and is 21.5 inches long. We are so excited he's here! We're all doing great, just a little sleep deprived!

tomorrow is "d-day!"

That's right, tomorrow we'll be headed to the hospital very early in the morning to be induced. Please pray that everything goes well (and quick!). We'll keep you posted!

update on baby tooley!

Well, we went to our appointment last week, and our doctor said baby probably wouldn't be coming this week either-- so Friday (april 3), we're going to go ahead and be induced-- please be praying he'll come before then so I don't have to be induced this time! We'll keep you posted =)

We have a name!

That's right-- it only took 38 weeks for us to decide a name this time-- but we finally have one! Baby Tooley #2 will be:

Joseph Alan Tooley

Joseph means "God will increase", and Alan means "handsome"-- which is also Brett's middle name. We can't wait to meet him (hopefully very soon!)

I haven't decorated a cake since Matthew was born....

Well, it's been a while since I've decorated a cake-- but I'm pretty proud of how it turned out! We had a shower for my best friend Amanda last weekend-- below is the cake and the hostesses-- it was a ton of fun!






Isn't the grass fun?!?


Amanda at 28 weeks, and me at 38. Next picture, she'll have the bigger belly! =)

Murder Mystery from the 50's!

A week ago, our ABF class came over for an evening of bbq and playing this fun murder mystery game--we had the best time hanging out and finding the "murderer"!


the guys, looking so cool- Brett, Darron, Scott, Hulen and Jon

The beautiful gals-- Erin, Elaine, Sarah, Tonia and Nancy

where is baby Tooley?

Well, we are at week 37 this Friday-- and I am ready for this baby to make his entrance into the world! I think we're ready-- we have the bassinet all set up, the double stroller is ready to be used, and some sweet friends threw me a shower last weekend, so we've got diapers to get us rolling! (The shower was just wonderful, and I had a great time!). Here are a few pics from it =).



My good friend Amanda and I-- she's at 26 weeks and I'm at 36!
