The fine line from infancy to toddlerhood
Are my eyes playing tricks on me or is that a toddler you see?
Wha….who….HOW….WHEN?!
With just one more month left before she officially turns one, Ellie is looking and acting more and more like a toddler. My little baby who, not too long ago, couldn’t even sit up on her own or crawl is now a cruising/walking little person who can feed herself bread.
It really feels like she just grew up overnight.
There are days I feel like time couldn’t move any slower and I wish she could do more on her own. Then there are days where I’d watch her as she independently plays on the floor and I wish, just for a moment, that she’d stay just the way she is and never grow up.
I’ve been told that the first year of a baby’s life goes by really quickly and that they change and they grow so much in that first year. They cannot be any more right about that. I spent every waking moment with E so the change is very subtle but now, even I can’t deny the fact that she has grown tremendously.
I can’t believe that we survived each other for a whole year. There will be many more years of interesting moments and experiences as she continues to grow up. I’m not quite sure I’m ready for those yet…
I’m going to miss her being a baby…
time for baby #2?
Time just goes by too fast. They go from tiny babies to running in what sees like a blink of an eye.
hehe we have the same onesie.
This post made me cry! I look at P sometimes and I just can’t believe how big he is getting–like I want to slow time down just a little…
