Meet Caya!

Today and yesterday was fab! I would have posted about my day yesterday, but after reading this post you will know why I didn't update the blog.

I was a roving sub yesterday and went to two different schools. My first class had me a little worried because the teacher told me that her class is totally crazy this year and she had to leave early yesterday because they were so awful. Luckily, the class was amazing for me, so I was totally thrilled.

At the second school, the kids were a little crazy but it was still ok. I probably would have turned mega mean on them if I hadn't checked my phone and noticed that I had two text messages waiting for me. While the students were taking their multiplication test, I checked my phone and noticed it was from Matt's cousin and Matt's aunt. If you don't know, Matt's cousin was expecting a baby. The texts told me that the baby was coming!!! Oh gosh, I'm not even technically related to this kid but I almost peed my pants with excitement right there in the classroom. I got to thinking and thought that Rachel and Jo were playing a trick on me because I kept bugging her and we kept joking back through text message about if the baby was coming. Well, they weren't joking! As soon as the kids were done taking the test, I couldn't hold in my excitement any longer so I told my class that I was going to be an auntie in a couple of hours! The girls all said ooooh and ahhhh and the boys all cheered. In actuality, I doubt they cared and just wanted an excuse to make noise, but I didn't care.I know I am not technically the auntie, but when Rachel first found out that she was pregnant her and Brian said I would be Auntie Cass, and I gladly take on that role. I have always wanted to be an auntie.

Caya didn't come until this morning at 10:59. Matt and I got there right before she was born. I really am truly so in love with this little girl already. She is one of the most beautiful babies I have ever seen. I swear when I held her for the first time and I looked at her puffy little lips, I almost cried. Such an emotional day and it wasn't even my kid! I can't wait to see her again on Monday.

I'm such a lucky auntie!

Beautiful isn't she??
