It's a .....!!!!

BOY!

Brooks Frederick Tonagel was born Wednesday night at 7:23pm. Brooks was born into the water and is doing well. He was 7 lbs 2 oz and 20.5 inches long.
We came home at 1:45 this morning and are hoping to rest. (I have been up for 23 hours now!) Insomnia obviously hasn't gone away!

We will give pics and details later.
much love,
a,b,c, s and b! :)

Amanda and Ben,

Congratulations!!! We are so happy you both have a healthy baby boy! I guess I can stop checking your blog every couple of hours now! :) Amanda, I hope you get some much needed sleep. We can't wait to see pictures of the newest little one!

Ben and Amanda,
Congratulations on the healthy birth of little Brooks! We are so happy for you!!! It is so fun to see your family unfold!

And to the big brothers,
How exciting that you have a new baby brother! I know you guys will be good examples to him and help your Mom out whenever she needs it :) Brooks is very lucky to have you two as his big brothers!

Brooks,
Can't wait to meet you little guy (and hug you, kiss you, and hold you!) You have a great family!

We love all 5 of you and are thinking about you today!!!

Congrats Tonagel fam! Welcome to the world little Brooks!

Amanda- funny story- I had a dream last night that you'd had your baby and named him Clinton and I thought it was funny you named him after a Democrat :)
