Brennon a few days old
Brennon, Today I took your bassinet down. It should have happened a while ago (you are so big!) but I just couldn't bring myself to do it. Putting it away is a physical act of saying that you are no longer my tiny little newborn. Obviously. I have shed tears today. I wish I could keep you little for longer, you are so sweet.
When I put away Jayden's 0-3 month clothing I had this moment. When Hadley was too big for the baby swing, I had this moment.
Have you had this moment? What triggered it?

It makes me cry. This time in your life is most precious. No other time in life, will you work so closely with God. I love you.
Oh My gosh! So sweet! I remember when i took Adin's down, I was like oh great now he's gonna be sleeping in the bed with me!! HAHA!
I think my big moment was when I had Kaleb and Kleyn wasn't my baby any more. Changing diapers really showed me how big Kleyn had gotten and how much of a little boy he was instead of my only baby. They definitely grow up too fast. He's sure a cute little guy, though.
He is too cute. I love the video of him eating and laughing. I have to agree with you about having a moment. Cade turned 6 months last week and I cried that day. I pulled out all of his 6-9 month clothes and put away the 3-6month clothing, which he had grown out of a long time prior, but just like you, I couldn't bring myself to do it. Why do they have to grow so fast? I miss Cade's tiny body and newborn face. I love this stage, but it's always bittersweet.
i love this post. i remember when i folded gavin's newborn clothes and placed them in a storage bin as he outgrew them. i shed tears too.
in fact, i bawled.
i bawled for the uncertainly that i would ever have another baby to dress in these clothes.
i have "this moment" with every milestone gavin completes.
for me, it keeps me in the present and helps me appreciate that i have had the honor of being a mother ...twice. what a miracle.
