Emerson's Arrival











Welcome to the world Emerson May! February 17, 2009 is a day I will always remember! After 15 hours of labor that ended in a c-section our little girl finally made her debut. At 6 lbs 9 oz and 19 in. long she is pretty tiny, but absolutely perfect! I can't believe I carried her around for 9 months, what a miracle! So far, we think she looks like Jarrett, but she does have my blonde hair and stubborn personality :) We had quite the cheerleaders at the hospital for the duration. My mom and dad and Jarrett's mom and dad were there for the entire thing, their love and support was so helpful as the hours drug on and on. We brought her home from the hospital on the 19th and have been trying to adjust to life with a newborn and lack of sleep. She is amazing though and worth every second of it! Jarrett and I are so blessed and excited to have her in our lives! I cannot wait to watch her grow and see the person she will become, but for now I love my little, tiny baby girl!

  2. Mandy, your dad and I are so proud of you for being the intelligent, beautiful and sensitive woman you have become. You and Jarrett are going to be wonderful parents. Both of you were destined to find each other and that will reflect strongly in your parenting skills. God has blessed you with Emerson and she is a perfect and precious little girl. We love you both very much. Emerson's Nana and Grandy.
