quote of the day

I am beginning to learn that it is the sweet, simple things of life which are the real ones after all. 

-Laura Ingalls Wilder

This was Jude playing in the dirt on Thanksgiving day when he was Lennon's age. 

Today I got out all of Jude's 18-24 month clothes and put them in the closet for Lennon. The shirt he's wearing in these pictures was always one of my favorites. It's so weird to pull out all of Jude's old clothes for Lennon because it seems like it was just yesterday he was wearing them. As I put each shirt and pair of pants on a hanger, I remembered the times Jude wore them. It was a bittersweet trip down memory lane. My first baby is growing up. I am thankful though that I have another beautiful little boy to make memories in the same clothes.
