Too Fast

Every mom will tell you that babies grow up too fast, but there really is no way to truly understand that until you have your own.  I was taking some pictures of Henry while husband was giving him his bath last night, and he just looked so much older to me.  He is growing so fast and there's not a thing I can do about it.

Don't get me wrong, I absolutely love that he's healthy and happy, growing like a weed and practically changing daily in front of our eyes.  Some days I'm just a little dumbfounded at how fast time is moving these days.  I swear other people's kids always took longer to grow! ha! ;)

See for yourself:

*Just a disclaimer, with the exception of the first picture, I took all of these photos while my husband was giving Henry a bath.  If you see any hairy legs/arms/hands in these pictures they belong to husband, not to your's truly.  ;)  Oh, and yes, I do bathe Henry as well, we just don't seem to have any photos of it! ha!*

I absolutely adore this picture.

Doesn't he look so much older?

Holding his rubber ducky and using the bill as a teether.
Yes, he has a pink duck.  It was a gift from his Marmee, (my mom), before we knew he was a boy.  It was part of a 3-pack, he also has a yellow and green, but they're in the living room.  He loves them all equally. ;)

Sweet Boy


These next two were the pictures that brought about this whole post.  H has been teething like a wild man this week, (he gets it honestly, his Daddy and I both got teeth early), and was chewing on his fingers all during his bath last night.  It reminded me of a picture I had taken back in May, but I couldn't believe the difference when I compared the two.

Like I said.  Too fast.  

WAY too fast.

  1. Aww, love all these photos! I swear Aurelia is trying to keep up with him. In the past couple of days she's been a lot fussier and chewing on everything! She doesn't have a rubber ducky though, and I bet she'd like one.

    1. It's funny because Henry loves his duckies, but Adelaide has the exact same ones, and Jordan said she doesn't care for them at all! haha Silly babies and their opinions about things. ;)

  2. Henry is absolutely adorable! I agree they grow much too quickly -- slow down, little ones! We have the same little whale tub and your photos reminded me of the "firsts" we celebrated in it with our two wee ones! Soak up these sweet moments, momma! :)
