Baby steps

do you ever wonder how they grow so fast?

How do you get from this:



to this:



and from this:



to this:




The top photo features mine in the middle , and brothers Jordan (left) and Tyler (right) at a ballgame this summer.

I've been going through my digital's today and trying to organize them into some semblance of order - so far I've alphabetized from Ballgame's to Zoo. I've been doing this for hours now - I had no intention of anything of the sort when I got up this morning , but here I sit lol. In my jammies. It's now almost time for B. to get home from school and I haven't moved since he left, unless it was to grab another cup of coffee! (I'll get dressed soon and try to fake him out I think).

Anyway - multiple mama moments this morning. He was so tiny when we brought him home , just an itty-bitty baby -



and now he's destroying my home (w/lots of help from his friends) playing Rock Band and refining his cool:





And then there's me. There are very few pictures of me left , and I'll tell you why. Ahem. Here's a photo of me prior to child:



Now it's not a great shot - my eye's are almost always shut due to some fool's idea of that red-eye thing and it makes me blink - but I do have makeup on , and plus it's the only one I can find from pre-baby days right now lol.

All current pictures look like this:



This was taken at the crack of 5AM Christmas morning. Sadly , it's also the BEST one taken at the crack of 5AM Christmas morning. Christmas Eve was a lot of fun , but Christmas morning was a little rough . Brady took another one about an inch and a half from my face - all you could see was one dark circle and my pores. I have many more of me , taken by my husband who just doesn't seem to care what I look like EVER. I liked this one because Brady looks freshly hatched lol. It's the hair.

Uh-oh. Husband and son are both home - and I'm still in the jammies. Gotta go!
