adios, ONE!

Oh, ONE, we are so over you. You and your baby ways. We're moving on to bigger and better things...to number TWO. EEEEEEEEEEEEEEK!!!! Two????? I hadn't given it much thought...until I ran across this photo:

Just look at that little baby! Baby. Not big boy. Not even little boy. Baby. Where did he go? Sadness depart, leave gladness in my heart.

So we're heading into the week stretch before M's birthday! Smooch is coming to town, so excitement is in the air! We've got a superstar guest list for the fiesta, including the M kids, Layne and Baby Mia, and an Elmo pinata (that's right, go ahead and beat the idol of your little heart with a big stick til hoards of sugared candies come crashing down on your head). Good times are a comin'!

M says goodbye to being one:Below are pics I took right before his first birthday. Soon we will retire his "1" shirt, and I will post his "2" photos!

Happy Birthday Matthew! Oh Tish, they grow up all too fast. Each age is so enjoyable but so sad at the same time.

I would love to know where you get your 2 shirt, I would like to get a 3 for Max....it is so adorable but not near as adorable as sweet M!

Enjoy your day of celebration BIG boy!

Blessings!
Kim

We're coming right behind you with G's second bday in early March. I have a hard time with each passing bday with the kids. And, I look at both him and A lately and they are looking like such big kids to me! I can't even imagine how big they'll look when we bring home baby Mallory. I still want my little babies! :) Hope you handle the big day okay with your new little man!

WARNING:
The older they get, the faster time flies.
