Not on purpose....

[Deleted]

But dh has snapped a pic of me in this exact spot with charlotte sleeping on me at least once a month since she was born. I think I'm going to keep going and put the pics from each month in her baby book. I would love to have those from my mom.

The older I get and the more of a "mother type" I become, the more I realize all the precious memories I have of my mom. I dug out old pictures of my mom and me a few weeks ago and framed them throughout the house.

My baby is 4 months old. How did this happen?

Oh, and to continue my nostalgia, I let my 4 year old ds climb in my lap tonight too. And he fell asleep right next to dd. I had happy tears.

I must be about to start my damn period.

So cute and you look gorgeous!

You're so pretty, and that is such a sweet idea. I'm sure she will cherish those pictures.

I know what you mean about becoming "mom-ish". My grandma is about to pass away, and I have cried multiple times today about it, b/c I just think about my mom, losing her mom, and how sad I would be if I was in her shoes, and how much I never want to die, and leave grant. even if we are both old.... i've become an emotional wreck since having a baby.

Complete with breast pump, bottle and popped cheddar cheese rice cakes in the background.

I'm nothing if not real, people.

Thanks for the compliments I've started to wear make up again. I am seeing that it was a good decision.

I didn't even notice that stuff. I was distracted by your beautiful baby girl and your amazing eyes.

Oh, and re your DS. My mom used to hold me and tell me I would.always be her baby, "no matter how big and long-legged" I got. It was something her dad had told her, and I've already said it at least once it J.

That is so sweet. And I get it. It isn't corny. Cause both my kids will always be my babies. I am shocked by how big my 4 year old is, but I look at him and just remember his sweet little milky breath as an infant. And the funny way he crawled.

They will always be our babies.

And when I tell dh that, he tells me to stop being weird. Lol.

And to take my emotions up a notch, I look exactly like my mom in this pic. Like, identical. Except she has blue eyes and mine are green.

Gah. My period better get here soon.

That is SUCH a sweet picture. You are both gorgeous!

I just reread this thread and saw this. I'm so sorry your grandma is passing. I would not deal well with that either and I get all the different ways that makes you sad.

This is a beautiful picture!
