So yesterday I took Jenna to get her pictures taken for her first birthday, and I think maybe I am still in shock. This year has just flown by and I think faster than the 2 years before when Jackson was littler. I think the reality that this is the last time that I will hold a a baby that is mine is here. I would love to have another one but things financially will never be there ( unless I hurry up and finish my degree, but as many of you know I want to put my children first and I feel that would take lots of my time from them). Jenna is no longer breastfeeding she self weaned when I started her on the bottle more often. I am having a little withdrawal from breastfeeding. I miss the closeness, I remember this with Jackson, too. She will take her bottle and crawl away not let me hold her.
Then I was watching a program I had on the DVR about a girl's first prom and how it is almost an out of body moment for the parents, who are in disbelief that their baby girl is now 16 which is almost 18 which is almost 21 which is almost 30....."one day the thing that makes them happy is tutus and tiaras and the next thing they are picking out prom dresses". I don't if I am feeling this way because my own birthday is around the corner, or it has just set it that today is almost tommorrow, but I am glad that I get to live every moment of it.

I know what you mean. Tyler takes my breath away some days when he does something grown up. It seems like they were just born.
