2 months old

I can't believe it but Ashlyn is already two months old.

Hair cuts

Due to the financial situation that everyone is in we are trying our hardest to save money. One of the ways we are doing this is by cutting the boys' hair ourselves. They both had mohawks before cutting it all off.

Ashlyn's blessing

My best friend Brandi's husband Ryan blessed Ashlyn for us on September 7th. The little boy in the above picture is Preston there son. It looked like they were getting married. (she's in her white dress and he's in a suite)

She's finally here!!!

After a long nine months our newest addition has finally arrived. I had a scheduled induction for August 1, 2008 and had to be at the hospital at 6:30 that morning. I could hardly sleep the night before because i was so nervous and excited for our baby to finally be here. We got checked in and settled into my room and Dr. Kaan induced me at about 9:00. The nurses wanted me to get up and walk around but I didn't want to do anything that might make her come faster until my mom got there. So when my mom got there I agreed to walk around. It didn't take much time before I was started to really feel the contractions. They wanted me to walk around for an hour, but we headed back to the room after only half an hour because i needed to go to the bathroom. When I came out of the bathroom my mom asked me if I was ok. I told her I felt like I was going to throw up. She said I was really white. I didn't walk anymore after that. The next little while is kinda a blurr. The next thing I remember is breathing through some really painful contractions. I got to the point where I couldn't take it any more so I told Joe I want the epidural. I got the epidural but it pretty much just took the edge off the pain. I was good for a little while but then I started having really bad back pain. The nurse came in to check me and said it's time. As they were wheeling me to the delivery room I started throwing up. The nurses were excited because they said it helps the baby come. I wasn't too excited about it though. After a few good pushes Ashlyn Marie Tolar was born at 4:02 pm.

Wyoming Big Show 2008

We took Caden to the carnival for family night. It was only a dollar to ride the rides. AWESOME HUH!!! He had so much fun. His favorite was the BIG slide. He took dad on it twice.

So I was going to try to go through all the pics that I have on my computer and put them on here to give an update on our family, but I have too many!! I don't think I would ever get completly caught up. I'm just gonna put up somethings from the last couple months to be up to date. So If anyone is wondering what happened to a couple of the months that why...
