On May 29, 2010 our daughter Makaila “Cookie Dough” Imani McManus arrived. I don’t have words to describe how excited, nervous, and happy we are. My Mom was able to visit right away, and stay long enough for me to stop being scared to be left alone with the baby. Thanks Mom!
I could write forever about how I feel as a new dad, and how I wish my Dad were here, and Kacey and Grandma and Grandpa; but mostly folks want to see pictures. So, I present our daughter Makaila.

Makaila on her first day.

Kecia, the proud mama.

Mom, the proud grandma – Makaila is the first grand-daughter.

Makaila, deep in thought.
There are plenty more pictures. Some are available on my FB page. Makaila looks forward to meeting all of her family and friends. Thank you to everyone that has been so helpful already!
