Hi friend!
When CO2 gas is bubbled through lime water :-
i)In small amount then the lime water turns milky due to formation of calcium carbonate. 
Reaction: 
Ca(OH)2(aq) + CO2(g) → CaCO3(s) + H2O(l) 
The insoluble CaCO3 is the reason that the solution turns milky
 ii)in excess amount then the milkiness of the lime water disappears due to formation of Calcium bicarbonate.
