Well, she's 4 today!! four days old... And really stealing everyone's heart. Nana & grandpa Doyle are coming with Uncle Andrew and Aunt Gynna (they're 5). We finally got some good Sleep and are taking the day to relax.

Well, here she is Addilyn Kay Doyle! 8.7LBS and 22" long. She came to us on Wednesday at 1:19pm in the hospital in Tulsa. Mommy did Wonderful and really was great. After only about 17 hours of labor and six good pushes Addilyn came right on out with no complications. We had to stay for about 48 hours but all is well.
true story though, see Addilyn was face up instead of face down or vice verse, and kinda tried to come out sideways. When DR.Ross (wonderful DR) pulled her out he says "look a Unicorn"!,poor girl had such a bad lump on the side of the top of her head she really looked like she could star in the movie CONEHEADS. So here are a few of the pictures

Baby Addilyn is here!! Pictures and more info later today stay tuned!

OK so today we went to the "GIRLIE" DR. and at 3:30pm Amanda was Dilated to a 3...yes a three! so exciting. So if Addilyn is not here by Friday then at 6:00am on Friday we will be inducing MOMMA and having a child. Which is good because I Promised my mother that if they came down I would have a baby for them on Labor Day weekend! it is a close call but I WILL be keeping that promise! By the way, this is Amanda's Surprise face.

Well here is another MOMMY shot. check out the bump! this is 39 weeks along!

Well, here we are one week later and yet NO BABY! we have the bag packed, the diaper genie bought and room painted, heck we have the car seat in the car... I now can say that i have had one of life's toughest struggles and won; getting the flippen' car seat base secured in the car! I was sweating and yelling and walking away from it. maybe i am a little retarded but, that goes without saying.
We also started a pool to see who could guess the weight and date the closest. for the near and dear there is a dinner in the running. For everyone else, have fun and please play along!

Well, not much to report this week just a lot of work and stress trying to get Amanda's classroom ready for her not to be there. The remodel at the store is entering week 16 and so close to being done. Although both Amanda's Classroom and the store are making great progress we are truly sitting and waiting for the arrival of this little angel. it seems that the number one phrase everyone has to tell us is "get as much sleep now as you can..." trust us we are trying! we got the house repainted and looking like something you could live in rather than a badly painted dorm room. Just a reminder we are due the 28th of August but AMANDA'S DR. is saying the week of the 18 is overly likely, while some others are closely watching the cycle of the moon...However it is raining now in Pryor...Just kidding (for all you superstitious people)

OK we have had a few requests for Nursery Pictures here are some

Just when you think you have a good idea, Life teaches you funny things. we thought that we had found the perfect paint for the dining room. See we wanted something bold and with a reddish tint to it and so we found this discount paint ... Yeah we did, we bought it. we painted and well WHAMMO! here is what we came out with. I know you must be hoping that we don't leave it. We already bought the cover-up/right color/more expensive paint. When we get that done Saturday morning i will post the finished project. I promise. Don't you love the streaks?

Well, we thought we could take a picture of the mother to be and show possibly just how big this girl of ours is going to be. This is Amanda at 36 weeks and still going! man are we anxiously awaiting her arrival. We went to the Doctor on the 28th and she said that after Amanda has, OH about ONE WEEK OF SCHOOL! we will be ready to have her. so we are looking now at the week of August 18-22(ish) Sorry Robert, NO 8th,8/08/08. If that were the case she would be the 8th grand baby born on the 8thday of the 8th month. Dad, sorry it is not looking bright for the 5th either. We tried.
