Don’t Blink

You know that song (not sure who sings it?) Don’t Blink? I heard it once and had it stuck in my head for the next solid week and a half. And now everyone reading this probably has it stuck in their head. Sorry!

But my point is, it’s true. Three months ago, my baby girl was born. She looked like this. Note the teeny, tiny little scrunched up newborn face, the wee little curled up fist, the brand-newness of her:

And then . . . then I made the mistake of blinking. And all of a sudden she looks like this: (we call this photo Jedi Vivi)

And that is, by the way a six month size suit my three month old baby is wearing because she is already so tall. I keep telling her she’s not allowed to be growing up so fast, but . . .

I just don’t think I’m getting through to her.

    Anna, she’s beautiful!! I know what you mean about blinking – mine just turned 18 a few weeks ago and I can’t figure out how in the world it’s been 18 years since she was born. Happy Holidays!

    AWW so cute!! Love seeing adorable baby pics! You are so right about the blinking part. One second I was buying a house just for me and hubby; (delusions of space to myself)..& boom all of a sudden two kids came and took over. So now I wait till they have delusions of space to themselves so I get to take over the house again.

    Shie is adorable! I think they make newborn clothes too small anyway, so don’t be concerned. You are right about the blinking. Before you know it she will walking and getting into things and playing with dolls…the whole nine yards!

    Have a wonderful holiday season and Great Baby’s First Christmas :)
