Our Niece Jaycee

Scott and I became an Uncle and Aunt in April to our cute little niece Jaycee Michelle Cooley.  Jaycee's due date was July 17 but she decided that she wanted to meet the family earlier than that.  Even though she was almost 3 months early, she was still as cute as ever!  After months spent in two different hospitals and a couple of surgeries Jaycee finally gets to come home next week!!!  This is the first child for my brother and sister-in-law (Jack and Brandi).  Scott and I are so excited to have a niece and have already been spoiling her....and she's not even home yet!  It's still a little early for me to say if she looks like her mom or dad but I'm sure that will change as she gets older. 

The other day I was looking at pictures of Jaycee from the time she was born until now.  I couldn't believe how different she looks.  It's like she's a different baby all together.  Scott and I got to hold her a couple of weeks ago and loved every moment of it.  She slept most of the time and purred when I was holding her.  I had to double check I wasn't holding a cat because that's what she sounded like.  My facebook profile picture was me holding her....NO, it's not my kid (a few people have asked).  We're excited that Jack and Brandi get to bring her home soon and can FINALLY enjoy having a baby.  They're going to be great parents and have waited a long time from this day.
