I keep wondering where the time has gone. We had her pictures made yesterday, and oh my goodness how much she has changed. We look at her newborn pictures and compare them to now, and get all teary. I know there are a lot of milestones and firsts she will have, and I'm telling you now I will cry at every one of them. My hubby knows he's just gonna have to put up with the waterworks. Good thing he's so patient and caring.

Each month when I upload the new album, I can't resist going back and looking at some of the earlier ones...they just grow up way too fast. I can't imagine their first day of school, but I know that stock in Kleenex will soar that day.
