Addie will be one. I’m not ready. I’m not ready for all the firsts to be old, and seconds and thirds to become routine. I’m not ready for her sweet breath’s transition into morning breath. I’m not ready for her to take the spoon from me to feed herself. I’m not ready for her to let go of my fingers and take her first steps. I’m not ready to admit that those 9 months it was going to take me to lose all the weight is now teetering on 13 months. Mostly, I’m not ready for my baby to be a toddler…
There are still some firsts coming, I know that. Lucky for me, we got to have a first with some of our best friends at Roger Williams Park Zoo and it was amazing!
No matter what these next few years bring, I will cherish this first year and all the firsts still left to come!

I remember feeling like this when my first turned one… Here is the good news, they really are more or less babies until they are 3 or so… Sure we call them toddlers, but really… :-))))

Oh, such BEAUTIFUL photos! I still look back at my babies’ FIRST things and marvel that they’ve grown into such amazing adults. Time is an astounding thing, an astounding reality that brings such incredible gifts… but holding onto these precious moments is what you’re supposed to do. You need to do. You WILL do, because you’re a Mama! Cherish each moment as much as you do now. It makes all the difference. xo!
