Lily Ryan Davis

Now that today is almost over it's really hit me that my sweet baby is one. I've been dreading this day for weeks now. It just doesn't seem possible that a year could go by so fast, I swear it was just yesterday that I got to see her for the first time. Lily is such an amazing baby and she's truely been a blessing to have. She's the happiest baby and very rarely cries. Which after having Emilee Lily seemed like a breeze.

December 17, 2007

Casey and I woke up to go to the hospital for my scheduled c-section at 5 am. My surgery was scheduled for 7. Everything went well except for the waiting. I'm not a very patient person to begin with so when my start time kept being pushed back I got really anxious. Finally they wheeled me back to the operating room to get started. It took the dang anesthesiologist 35 minutes to give me my spinal. It was the most uncomfortable and painful thing I've ever been through, nothing like when I had Emilee. Once all that was in place they let Casey in and the doctor did his work. Lily Ryan Davis was born at 9:06 am and was 7 lbs. 6 oz and 19 1/2 inches long.

While I was pregnant with Lily I always worried that I wouldn't think she was as cute as Emilee and was scared that I would love her as much as I did Emilee. That was far from the case. It was love at first sight and she was just as beautiful as her sister. At first they really didn't look much alike but it didn't take long for that to change. I love the saying "Children fill a whole in your heart you never knew existed". That sums it all up.

Here are some pictures of Lily over the past year. I still can't believe my sweet Lily is one.

Happy birthday sweet baby girl you've been such a blessing to us. I look forward to watching you grow more and more every year. I love you Lily!

Neglected

Well I've been neglecting my blog for the past 6 weeks. I just never can find the time to sit down and write what's been going on. I'm finished with school until Jan. 20th so I'll have much more time on my hands. That is if I could stop reading the Twilight books. I'm officially hooked. I finish one and I run to the store to buy the next. It's really pathetic actually. I've even got Casey addicted now. So my house work has been pushed to the back burner along with wrapping presents. Two more to go and I'll be back to the land of the living.
Lots has happend since I last wrote, I'm not even sure where to start. We had a great Halloween. We had all of our neighbors over before hand then we all went trick-or-treating together. It was a little crazy but the kids had fun. I of course didn't take any pictures so I'll have to get some from my neighbors.
Thanksgiving we went up to DFW for the weekend. We had Thanksgiving day at my sister's in Carrollton, it was so nice. I can't remember the last time that we went out to their house. Lily was very clingy to me but other than that we had a good time. The next day we had Lily's 1st birthday party. Like the day before Lily was extremely clingy but I think she was a better birthday girl than Emilee was at that age.
I promise I'll post some pictures tomorrow afterall it is Lily's 1st birthday. :( I can't believe a year as gone by that fast. I almost cried last night and I can probably guarantee that tomorrow at 9:06 am I'll cry. It's just not right that my baby is already a year.
