Dallas-Fort Worth Babies

The final days ...

So, we're T minus 4 days until I have a one year old ... and T minus 5 days until the craziest shindig my little home has ever known  :)

I can't believe it's happening.  I can't believe my BABY is turning one.  I can't believe he's walking ... and down to 2 bottles a day ... and drinking MILK ... and eating REAL food.  I am going to be a royal mess on Friday and Saturday.

Re: The final days ...

  • I went to a friend's daughter's 1st birthday party yesterday and as they sung happy birthday i started bawling (the mom didn't even cry, but then again these crazy mormons have 50 kids, so by the last one, they're over it? lol).  I am not ready for this.  I can't believe Jack is so so close to being 1!  I still remember your Ow Ow Ow post a year ago...it's all too fast; TOO FAST!!! Crying

    LMAO. I love you so much.  More people should have a sense of humor about themselves :)

    It hasn't been bad for me at other bday parties ... but I know Jack's will be different.  DH was just saying this morning 'remember how HUGE you were this time last year' (yes honey, thanks for pointing that out).  I was so swollen, SO uncomfy ... so blissfully unaware, lol  :)

  • Lol. I did better than I thought. I did cry at 5:35 (the moment she was born).

    And I did insist on giving Wes a blow by blow of exactly what was happening at the time a year ago.

    "I was pushing right now." "I'm pretty sure they had cut me open by now." "They had FOR SURE cut me open by now."

    I was really good company on the drive down ;)

  • You ?know I would get emotional thinking about it before it got here, but when the day got here I was just HAPPY so happy and proud of my little girl. It is crazy though, she does seem like a little girl now, and no longer my baby :(

    I felt the same way - I was more excited that she was one and growing so happy and healthy that I didn't cry at all.  I'm completely amazed by her - from so little and helpless to this trying-to-walk, jabbering a mile a minute, curious, smart little girl in a year, it's awesome!  She self-weaned from her bottles this weekend, which was kind of a shock, but makes it easier on everyone, hee.  It's just so exciting, I love watching her little personality blossom!  And the same thing with everyone's LOs - from so tiny at our first GTG to running around at Gymboree, I love watching them grow so big!  And getting hugs from Sophia, Keanan, Jack, etc., that's totally awesome.  :D

  • T self-weaned from her bottles too! About 2 weeks ago, she just started pushing them away. ?So I have one large can of formula, that I guess I will have to throw out!

    And Steph, I might add, I am a VERY emotional person, so I was shocked that I didn't cry. ?I am just so proud of her, and amazed by watching her learn stuff every day! ?I swear I love her more and more everyday when it doesn't even seem possible to love someone this much. ?
