DS Is Growing Up Too Fast!!!!

[becka]

Nathan is now a little over 6 months old and I think he is growing up too fast.

When I left for work this morning I looked over at him in his exersauser and it just hit me how much he looks like a little boy now rather than a baby. I know he is still a baby (heck he will always be a baby to me) but for some reason he just looked so much older to me this morning.

He has come a LONG way from that under 5 pound baby we brought home from the hospital.....

Becka,
Children do have that nasty habit of growing up toooooo fast, don't they?
It does seem like just yesterday that we were all "pacing" here on the DIS, waiting for your DH to let us know if it was a boy or a girl!!

All I can say to you is to treasure all those drooling smiles, take a few extra moments each day to snuggle Nathan close to you and take a deep breath of that sweet baby smell in his neck!

My dd had to go to the dr the other day. She's gained exactly 60 pounds in the 9 years since I had her. She'll still be my little butterball 8 pounder though.

They do grow up too fast. Savor all the moments you can with little Nathan.

They do grow up so fast! But when I look into DS(19)'s eyes I still see a very little boy! And they change sooooo much in that first year.

Enjoy every moment and make some memories... even when your tired and frazzled.

Can you tell I am suffering from first one out of the nest syndrome?? DD(15) is NEVER leaving home!

Six months is the age you just want to freeze and snuggle. Ahh I love 6 months to a year.

And when they start school, boy, the years really FLY by!

If you're thinking this now, Becka, oh, man, you are going to be in trouble in a couple of years.

Other mothers--know what I miss most from my son's toddler years? All the cute ways he said things before he learned to speak correctly.

Examples:

Mony = Mommy (couldn't get that second M sound in for a while)
rainbrella = umbrella
Piggie, then Pig-a-lit = Piglet
jackie = jacket
Mick-dy Mouse = Mickey Mouse

I don't know about you guys, but I adored my child's "baby" talk.
