We welcome a new member to our family


For those of you who think this blog is dead, you were close to being right, but recent events have caused a resurrection. We have kept fairly quiet about some major things going on, and since Facebook is a little larger of an audience than we prefer, I have resorted to describing some of the important things here.
 As you notice from the picture above Michelle is holding a baby. If you are really astute you may not remember hearing anything about Michelle being pregnant. That is because she wasn't. Joey has a cousin who's 17 year old daughter became pregnant earlier this year. Six weeks before she was due, the other families that she had lined up to adopt her baby backed out. She called us on recommendation of Joeys aunt who's father had informed her we would be interested in adopting.
Fast forward a whirlwind 6 weeks later and here we are with a beautiful healthy baby boy we named Joseph Jayden. He weighed 7 lbs 2 oz. and was 20 inches long. We will try to keep updates coming, but our schedules are understandably going to be thrown off.
