Saturday Snapshot (06.02.12)

To participate in the Saturday Snapshot meme post a photo that you (or a friend or family member) have taken then leave a direct link to your post in the Mister Linky at Alyce's blog, At Home With Books.

Today's a big day at our house. It's my daughter's first birthday party (her official birthday is in two days on Monday).  We'll have a ton of family over in our somewhat tiny townhouse, so it is going to be a bit of an adventure. You can guess what next week's snapshot will be about, but today I thought I'd share a couple of pictures from when my daughter made her debut last year...



I can't believe our little Sweet Pea is almost a year old!  How the time does fly!

  3. Such precious photos! She is beautiful!! You always hear people say time flies by but I never realized just how fast it goes until I watched my own children grow. Now I have grandbabies!

    Have a wonderful party and happy birthday to your sweet baby girl!

    1. Thank you so much! Yes, it is amazing how much more quickly time flies when you have a little one. I can't believe she'll be one tomorrow!

  4. Time sure goes by quickly. It's hard to imagine how small the babies are when they are newborns.

    1. That's the truth! I had never held a newborn until holding my daughter -- and while she was small, she still clocked in at 9 lbs 2 oz so she was a little chunk!

  5. She is a sweetie. Unfortunately, the time just goes faster and faster as they grow up and we get older....

    Here's my Snapshot.

  6. She is really such a beautiful baby! And ... you were looking pretty spanky for your first mother-daughter snapshot! Hair AND make-up? Awesome!

    1. Thank you! I didn't let any pictures be taken until I had done my make-up -- after nearly 36 hours of labor (only to have to end in c-section) I was looking pretty rough! So I think that second picture might actually be from the day after she was born, since I'm pretty sure I didn't do my make up before then.

    1. Thank you! I can remember hearing that for years and years but it doesn't hit you how fast they grow until you have one of your own!

  10. Enjoy! I remember my daughters when they were that age - now the younger one has just left home, and the elder one i moving out in a couple of weeks, but they are just as beautiful and wonderful as they were then, and I am very proud of them both.

    1. Thank you! I don't even want to think about Laura moving out yet, haha :-) I am sure you are very proud of your daughters. It's hard for me to imagine what Laura will be like at that point, but I'm sure it will be a fun journey to get there!
