Piper Louise Caskey

Piper Louise Caskey was born on September 11th, 2008, at 12:20 in the morning so just after midnight. She weighed in at 8 pounds 1.5 ounces and 20 3/4 inches long. They started the pitocin around 9 pm on the 9th. Luckily I had an epidural. Due to the first epidural stopping working they redid the epidural right before the pushing stage. She was born a perfectly healthy little girl. The Echo she had after birth showed nothing wrong with her heart or at least nothing that won't correct itself in a few days. There was one abnormal thing but they said that was common to find and it nearly always corrected itself in a couple of days. She is a beautiful little girl who has her big sister all excited. Emilee can't understand why she can't pick Piper up and all that, or why she can't climb in bassinet with Piper. LOL. We will be returning to Ketchikan the morning of the 19th. Thank you all for your prayers. Piper's health is such an answer to prayer!!

PS I attached a website to the title of this blog where you can see more pics of Piper.
