Baby Tyler





On November 1, 2011, we welcomed Tyler Daniel Doane to our family. He was born at 7:07pm and was 8 lbs 11oz, 21 inches long. His birth was so much faster and less complicated than Isaac's, for which I am so grateful. I had to be induced, 5 days after my due date, but after starting labor, it only took about 4 hours for him to arrive. It was so wonderful meeting Tyler and getting to hold him and to finally get him out of me! Ben's mom, Grandma Lulu (or as Isaac sometimes calls her, Boo boo!) was here to take care of Isaac and my mom came for a day to see Tyler on his birth day. We are home now and everyone is doing well. Isaac is still trying to measure what is going on and how he fits in to everything, but I am sure he'll settle down once we are return to our regular schedule. It is a lot of energy trying to tend to two little boys right now, and I am grateful for all the help we have received.
