Then... and, Now...

One year ago... my sweet Sophia was 4 1/2 and had all her baby teeth fully intact.

Now, though, as of last night, she only has 19 baby teeth intact!!! :)

That's right, my 5 1/2 year old "baby" lost her first tooth last night. It's been loose for over a week, and when she came in from playing last night Jamie noticed the tooth was gone. She didn't even know it had fallen out. :) She was upset to have lost her tooth, but we assured her she'd lose more and the Tooth Fairy would still come. Jamie The Tooth Fairy left her four quarters, a ring pop and a note from Daddy. She is growing up so fast.

Hadassah Anne at one month old...

And Haddie, today, at exactly four months old!

Check out that hair! It is so soft, so spiky and quite red!

Haddie has been doing a lot of new things lately. She now rolls both ways, and I will often find her across the room if I lay her on the floor. :) She's also starting to play with toys a bit. She continues to be super smily and giggly and talkative. She is usually asleep around 8p and sleeps till 7a most mornings. We're working on ironing out our daytime nap schedule but she pretty much naps one really good nap and then takes 2 -3 smaller naps. I'm working on getting her on two solid naps and a catnap if she needs it.

Riley, at 11 months old. He was standing great, but not yet walking. And, clearly he was still cutting teeth. :)

Today, Riley is exactly 1 year and 11 months old! I cannot believe my baby boy will be two in one month! He is done cutting teeth (yippee!!!) and pretty much runs everywhere he can.

In the last month his vocabulary is finally exploding! He's starting to say harder words, like truck and juice. He seems to gain new words every day and continues to melt my heart when he says "MOM!" :)

He's actually saying, "Mom" in this picture. :)

Time marches on and these kiddos, they just keep growing. It's so fun to watch. God is good.
