Welcome to Adorecherishlove

Hello and thanks for stopping by! I'm Casey, a first-time mum to a lovely little girl called Lilly-anne. This blog is my way of recording the ups and downs of becoming a mum for the first time, and I hope you enjoy following along.

My Story

Before Lilly arrived I worked as a primary school teacher, mostly with Prep and Kindergarten children. In the months just before she was born I took on relief teaching, which was great fun. I've also run my own photography business, photographing newborns, expectant mums, babies and families, and I hope to return to it one day.

In August 2012 I married my high school sweetheart, Kurtis. We started dating in Grade 12 and have been together ever since. I fell pregnant with Lilly in October 2013, and she arrived in May 2014, a full six weeks early. She spent her first four and a half weeks in Special Care, but she is doing really well now.

I began this blog to document my journey as a first-time mum. I hope you enjoy reading my posts!
