Just yesterday my first child was born. Today she is 6, and my youngest (#4) just turned 1. I know they are still little, but I think about how they are not little bitty babies anymore... before I know it my children will be getting maried, moving out, and having kids of their own. Cry. Maybee I shouldn't think about that too much!

The following pictures are about 1 year old

My daughter, Joy (was 5 at this picture)

Enjoy every minute of it...even the ones when you want to scream or run away...lol. It goes fast. Mine are now 37 and 35 and were just as cute as yours once upon a time. It is a great feeling to know they are wonderful adults now and we have lots of great memories! Would not have wanted to miss being Mommy for anything in the world.

Aww, there adorable!
I know what you mean, once my 6yr old started 1st grade, all of a sudden she is 6 going on 16!
it breaks my heart, today dora was on and she got mad at me for even suggesting she watch that. lol just yesterday she had dora shoes, backpack, shirts, brushes, exc and now she rolls her eyes when i even mention dora.

All we can do is enjoy the moments and diffrent stages and take alot of pictures to remind us of the good ol days

Enjoy them while you still can because before you know it they become cranky teenagers. LOL!! You have adorable children.

My baby is 17, middled 13 and baby is 5 goes WAY TOO FAST! hug often before they get too old to hug :)

Yes, the kids grow up way too quickly. I could hardly wait for my oldest to start to school. Now she is 52 and has grandchildren. By the way grandchildren grow up even faster than your kids.

they do grow up fast but then come the grands, which is so great. You get to do all the fun stuff and not really worry about the non fun stuff.

Your kids are precious.
