Growing (literally) UP!



Lily is GROWING. Her 2T clothes that fit a few weeks ago have been put in the "too small" bin and I am pulling out her 3T clothes! Thankfully, I had recently purchased a few new things for school and decided to buy them in 3T!

I really realized how much bigger she is getting last night. At 3AM she was crying. Not sure why....But I went in and picked her up to rock her for a minute. Usually her head is on my chest and she wraps her legs around my sides and hugs me from the front while we rock. SHE WAS TOO BIG to do this. Her head was on my shoulders and her legs were hanging awkwardly down off the rocker. I almost had a mini panic attack.....I have enjoyed the growing up process, not wistfully wishing she was still younger. I like that she can walk, talk, eat on her own....Last night was one of the first times I was so sad that she wasn't my "baby" anymore.

Here is a pic of her on her way to school this morning. She LOVES her new backpack!!!

The other pic is of Lily in her big sister dress. We didn't even ask her to pose, but what a wonderful pose!

Got some chicken out of the freezer and need to figure out what I am making tonight. Off to figure that out.
