1/16/07


Well it has been 9 1/2 months since Emilee Elaine Caskey was born into our lives and it has been an awesome 9 1/2 months. It is still quite amazing to me that I have been blessed with such a beautiful well behaved little girl, whom I love to no ends and I know loves me in return.

I remember all throughout my pregnancy I couldn't wait to be a mama, and could hardly stand the suspense of waiting for her to be born. Then when I went in to labor on March 31st 2006 I panicked and told my mom I am not ready for this. Can't she just stay in longer! I had all these what ifs running through my brain. "What if I am a horrible mom?" "What if she has a club foot like I did?" "What if..." "What if..." and so on. My mom went on to assure me that it would all be fine and that all new moms go through this that she certainly did. And you know what she was right, I thank God daily for my little miracle.

Emilee is a good happy baby, who likes to play and make her mom and dad smile. She has this grin that transforms her whole face, it is like not just her mouth smiles but her whole entire face smiles! She loves being the center of attention and will make sure that she has your full attention at all times. She is a little ham!

Parenthood has been good for both Lee and I. Lee is happiest it seems when he is playing with his daughter and loves to hold her on his lap while they listen to music or watch a movie on his computer. His face lights up when she calls him Dada, and when she sees him after he gets home from work she squeels and gets all excited. She gives slobbery kisses and will pull your face to hers and slobber all over you. She currently has 5 teeth and is working on one more.

Well I will update you more later, she just woke up from her morning nap.
