E. and my conversation as we “cuddled” in bed tonight, it went something like this:
E: But I’m getting so big now, Mama – I’m a big girl.
M: I know, honey. In a few weeks you are going to be 4! How exciting, huh?
E: And when I am 4, then I’ll be 5, and 6, and 7…
M: How about you just stay 4 for a little while?
E: But Mama, you know I was 1, and then 2, and I’ve already been 3 for a couple minutes!
How true. It feels like merely minutes. I then came out and birthday shopped online, barely able to see my laptop through my teary eyes, for my nearly 4-year old.
(psst…do you like the new header or do you prefer the old one?? I kind of needed to update the photos – although I LOVED the one of Addie, it was taken when she was like 9 months old. May be time for a change. So I thought I’d make it a little more “spring-like” while I was at it. What do you think?)
I like the new header . . . must do something to jazz up my blog.
Even being as far away as I am it seems like just yesterday that Em was born and then Addie. I can’t believe she’s almost 4. Wasn’t her baby shower just a couple months ago??? At least, that’s what it feels like.
I like the new header… and the pictures are always cute! Look on the bright side, its fun to shop for little girls no matter what there age
Love the new header. Totally know how you’re feeling! Seems like Lauren is always talking about what a big girl she is. Though we do have few more months of three.
The new header is great. I wish I had your talets for taking such great pictures…and for designing such cool graphics… I guess I need a good camera first. Then I need to actually take pictures…
Love the header — but you know I’m a sucker for polka dots and cute kids )
I hear you — My Mr. Carter is 5 today and so excited!! The first thing he asked me was if he looked bigger (of course he does, b/c I remember the moment they laid him on my belly ( and got to smell that sweet baby smell and touch that oh so soft baby skin.
Thank you for sharing!
I have to say, I prefered the old one. Although I love all of your work, and this one looks great, the black and white one was so catchy!!
