The oldest is moved into a big boy bed!
Seriously, where does the time go?
| He hasn't actually slept in it yet...he just thinks it's for play :) But we're working on it! |
It hit me so close to home.
I try and remember and write down so much of the boys lives but it just goes by so so quickly.
Too quickly.
Why can't we just freeze time?
I realize that Mason will not always crawl into bed with me and want to snuggle and give me kisses.
And he won't always ask for a bedtime story about a dinosaur...
and don't forget to tell the part about the dinosaur egg.
And you might wanna throw in a monster or two.
I love how he immediately says "again" when you finish your story...
and how we have to retell it a minimum of 3 times.
And how he loves to mow, and play with his tools.
How he stands at your feet and begs "Hold me, Hold me"
These sweet moments will not last forever.
Until I watched a family video the other night, I'd forgotten that he used to say "Nuh huh" when he actually meant "Uh huh"
and I can't remember the day that his blue eyes turned to a Brownish Greenish Hazel Color.
Or the exact day that his hemangioma faded away.
Every morning he asks for "Cancakes" for breakfast and every night he freely gives kisses to his Mom, Dad, and Brother...but this will not last forever.
So I sit here and write this and get emotional because how in the world is Vince already a month old...
It makes me cry just to think about it.
Or maybe it's just because I'm emotional in general (with all these post partum hormones raging through my body,) but I'm seriously very upset about these precious moments that just pass us by so quickly.
So I'm going to spend a few extra minutes with the boys at bedtime tonight, and just try to soak in as much as possible.
I suggest you do the same.
| Oh...we also had to make a winter version of the crabby shirt! It doesn't make him quite as happy but it'll have to do :) Handmade by Mammaw and Jaidie!! |
