Not Too Fast

I’m a gigantic sucker for sentimental imges, especially ones that show change over time. I can say that it got worse when Maggie was born and I started taking the chair pictures for her monthly picture. It was captivating how much changed from month to month, not just with her, but with the lighting and even memories about where I was personally. 

Tonight when Maggie was flinging around a pair of jammies on her head (I’d asked her to take them off because she’s be too hot…I told her she’d melt and she told me, matter of factly, “mama, people don’t melt” with huge eyes. No, Maggie, no, they don’t) an image of 2 month old Maggie popped into my head. At the time that was exactly what she looked like, with the huge eyes, tiny nose and chubby cheeks. 

And today’s picture still has round cheeks, a small nose and huge eyes. Still such a little girl…who likes to hear that, even though she’s growing (“not too fast, Mama”), she’ll always be my first baby. Indeed, she will. 

Because a post these days really woudn’t be a post without Little Sissy popping in, I thought I’d share how they both brush their teeth.
