I Sound Like a Fogie

We took Noob Baby in for some new photos yesterday at Kiddie Kandids. We can’t believe how much she’s changed! She looks like a totally different Noob compared to the first time we brought her in when she was 3 months – not even able to hold her head up yet.

At the risk of sounding like a total fogie… damn, they grow up so quickly!

On Saturday morning, I sat in the nursery glider looking through her photo album. It was a peaceful, intimate moment to be in there with her while the rest of the world was sleeping in on a drizzly weekend.

Of course, I had another Here’s Lookin At You, Kid moment.

If you have old photos that have been calling out to you from dusty albums or buried boxes…

Or maybe you have photographs that have been itching to get tucked into an album…

Perhaps, you just haven’t had the time to pull those Thanksgiving? Christmas? photos off your camera…

I hope you’ll take some time this week to revisit, smile, and reminisce.

I’m giving you the perfect excuse/challenge to sit down with your photos, put on a hot kettle or have a glass of wine, and just enjoy the subtle changes in our lives we so often forget to notice, appreciate and linger over.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

How has your little one changed recently? Is there a subtle change in your life that you didn’t even notice until you stopped to appreciate it? I would love to know.

First Time For Everything

Last night, we ventured for the first time into the wonderful world of semi-solids! Noob Baby had her first taste of rice cereal, and clearly, it wasn’t crazzzy delicious.

As she sat there gagging on her gruel, I was thinking fondly about this being her first “meal.” She also just recently got her first two teeth. And, she had rolled over and slept on her tummy for the first time a few weeks ago.

In fact, the beautiful and exciting thing about being a noob baby is that everything is going to be a First! Life is fresh and there are so many possibilities and things to be accomplished.

Over the weekend, Noob Daddy’s grandpa commented on how it would be great to be a baby again. While, I’m not so sure about chillin in diapers and wearing a dorky bib…it would be pretty freakin awesome to wear onesies and foot-pajamas all the time. And how about getting pushed around in a stroller while you take a nap between rides at Disneyland?! Her playplace and jumperoo isn’t too bad either…much better than a lame cubicle. Lay down and play with all your gadgets or jump around and play with all your gadgets. Then, when you get tired of playing, throw a BF (b@%!$ fit) and get put down for a nap.

But, despite all those perks, I guess the best part of being a baby is having all those Firsts. And I thought, we need to go out searching for First-Times now that they don’t just fall into our laps anymore. Think about the last time you had a first this or first that? Probably been awhile.

In fact, starting this blog is my most recent first. And, it ain’t too shabby learning something new. So, my goal will be to seek out new skills, new thrills, and new firsts. Care to join me? I would love to hear about any new Firsts you’ve had recently!
