all grown up.
Doesn't she just seem all grown up?!?
Four going on fourteen it seems.
All the more reason leading to the last post I did - she listens.
Can't believe how much older Quinn seems each day.
Filling out paperwork for just one more year of preschool was the first step to a major breakdown (for me) leading up to Kindergarten. We will push that out of mind until we get there.
We adore the funny, sweet, compassionate girl she is turning into.
To me, this picture looks a lot like her daddy.

she listens.
So Andie has this way of looking at you that just moves you. It is soft, genuine and as though she is staring straight into your soul. It's amazing.
She listens. She listens thoughtfully, so it seems.
When I held her brand new in my arms just home from the hospital and I said "take your time sweet girl, take your sweet time as you grow"... she listened.
Many mamas anxiously await the next big milestone as though it just can't get here soon enough - not this mama, that is for sure.
I am the mama that wants time to stand still, growth to happen thoughtfully and be noticed. Time moves too quickly.
I'm already mapping out every moment I can be a part of these little ones lives and as Todd and I discuss my future work plan we keep pushing it further back and changing it so we are as much a part of their lives as we possibly can be, because time moves too fast.
One of my biggest worries about baby number two was that it would feel especially fast as we would be a little busier. Quinn was full on crawling at 6 months, had 8 full teeth in at 8 months and it all just seemed so quick - I could only imagine how much faster it would seem the second time. I wanted to embrace every single second.
My sweet Andie listened, like the obedient little girl she is. :)
She patiently waited for her first teeth to pop up at 7 months, keeping her little gummy baby smile all the longer.
She has very slowly worked her way through the beginning crawling stages - taking her time.
At just about 9 months she is working her way into a full forward crawl, rocking forward, inching forward and ready to take off at any moment.
Thank you for dragging this all out for your mama, because I know you did this just for me. ;)
Take your time sweet girl.
We so love enjoying and celebrating every little moment, every little milestone with you.
