Thursday Thoughts

Today I've been thinking about how fast my kiddos have been growing. *L* will be 2 in December! She is starting to talk a lot more now. Today I found out that not only can she point to her elbow, but she can also say "elbow"! How did I miss that?!

I also pulled out my flip (video recorder) and looked at some videos from over a year ago, when she first said "papa," which was her 3rd word after "mama" and "dada". She was so tiny! And now she runs and talks and plays pretend cooking...she's just so much fun.

The pumpkin patch is here again. Last year, we waited til the last week to go. She was sick and not in the mood for the pumpkin patch. Daddy had to hold her the entire time, so daddy had to be in my pictures. Look at how little hair she has! Not that she has a lot of hair now, either. She was so little.
This past weekend, she sat in her chair that MiMi and PaPa gave her for Christmas. Her feet were touching the ground. I told Aaron, "Remember how tiny she was when she first sat in it?"

I just can't get over how so many things can change in a year! *S* is already 5 1/2 months old. He's getting big, starting to sit up, grabbing things...he'll be pointing to his elbow and telling me "elbow" soon, too! And before I know it, they'll be waving goodbye as they walk into the front door of their kindergarten class. Oh my!
