I know what you mean about them growing sooooo fast. Caleb just turned 4 a couple weeks ago!!!!

No more babies, it's so sad. Caleb started Pre-school & when I drop him off he won't even let me give him a kiss goodbye. MY BABY DOESN'T NEED ME ANYMORE!!!!!!!!!

Here are a couple from his birthday party yesterday & of the girls with headbands from My Mom. Also attached are a picture of Caleb when we left the hospital after TPR & his birth announcement photo. Time flies TOO FAST!!!

Deb, what a handsome little man you have!

Yuna's first birthday was yesterday and we had her party last night. Lots of fun, but also a little sad. My little BABY is GONE and a little GIRL has replaced her. I don't know where the last year has gone, honestly... so quick.

Enjoy every minute when they're little because they don't stay that way long.

(Although Yuna is still pretty little -- 17 pounds.)

THERE ARE EIGHT DIFFERENT WAYS YOUR CHILD CAN DIE ON A CORDED WINDOW TREATMENT
Read "How Safe Cords Kill" at www.pfwbs.org

THREE CHILDREN HAVE STRANGLED TO DEATH SINCE ANGEL DIED ON 8/11/09.
Brandyn Coppedge died on 9/11/09. Rosie Smith died on 9/30/09 and Thapelo Kwofie died on 11/1/09. The Consumer Product Safety Commission is no longer recommending safety kits. They are now recommending that anywhere children live or visit should be free of corded window products.

I love seeing Caleb's baby pics along with his new pictures. He has grown so much! I love to see how they change.

Love little CJ! It's so exciting to see new baby faces here!

Hanna & Marie-Kate are beautiful girls. Such sweet smiles!

so okay, we wanted to cut elijah's hair. is is 8 months old, and has beautiful curls, however they are very uneven, and grow only on top of his head, almost like a crown. so we went to the barber, and said to even out the sides, and to cut off half of the lengths on the top. so here is what happened...

before and after....

i was so upset, the barber didn't even listen what both, my husband and i said. she just buzzed it all off...his beautiful curls...
even though i think he still looks very cute, just sooo different now....like a little boy, not like a baby...boo-hoo, is is growing up so fast....

he's adorable either way!!!!! From the texture of his hair, I'd say in another 3 weeks those curls will be right back on his darling little head. I have a son that resembles your baby, he's now 7 and the last time daddy took him into the shop they cut more off than I was happy with. It's been about a month and all the curls are right back.
