Crybaby
Yeah, I’m talking about myself. I’m just sad now every time I lay eyes on Shepherd. He’s our fourth child and will be a year old in a few weeks. He is…. way…. too… big! I’m trying everything to keep him as tiny as I can! I know I’m spoiling him that way. He’s still drinking out of a bottle and eating all of my baby purees! Goodness.
I do feel like just shedding the tears, though, when I think of him getting so big. I was online today reading some funny baby quotes. I’ve shared some of these on my blog in the past, but if you don’t mind humoring a crybaby, here you go!
Spread the diaper in the position of the diamond with you at bat. Then fold second base down to home and set the baby on the pitcher’s mound. Put first base and third together, bring up home plate and pin the three together. Of course, in case of rain, you gotta call the game and start all over again. ~Jimmy Piersal, on how to diaper a baby, 1968
Funny? I think it is. I’ve certainly experienced a rain delay (well, without the pins, of course)!
And then, I’m sure you’ve seen these image files floating around online from the book Safe Baby Handling Tips by Scott and Kelly Sopp:
(“Introducing Baby to Pets” is my favorite.)
I told my sister a few weeks ago that this phase of babytalk is so short-lived, and I’m trying to cherish every minute of it before it’s “poof” and gone. He’s really talking up a storm now. Apparently, though, not as much as this girly (maybe his future wife?) –
I think we should put her and Shepherd in the back seat of my van and see what happens, don’t you?

Aw, I hear you! My youngest is almost 15 months old now, and both my husband and I are sad as the months keep rolling by- where does the time go?!
If it makes you feel any better, I cry every time I put H to bed the night before his birthday. Granted he’s only had 2 but I still get very emotional. There’s something about that last one!
