My baby is growing up



Here is our sweet boy at 4 days old and tomorrow when we wake up he will have laughed, loved, played, ate, and enjoyed his first year of life. I'm not ready to give up the idea of this 4 day old boy that I held so sweetly in my arms as he slept most of the day away. His sweet baby breath and how he melted into me when I held him. I have no choice though and while I miss those days we have delighted in each new skill, the fun new age and his little personality growing up along with him.

We love you baby shark. Sleep well as in the morning you'll be starting the next year of your life, one that I am sure we will enjoy even more than the first.

Everyone warned me how fast everything would go with #2, but I still wasn't prepared. Amazing, isn't it?!?

HAPPY FIRST BIRTHDAY REED! We're singing for you here in MN!

You write the sweetest posts. Happy Birthday Reed. You are quite a boy and it's been so fun to share playdates with you and watch you grow.

Happy birthday baby Reed, though you are not so much "baby" as you are "toddler". You are a light in our lives - a sweet, smiley, lovey light.
