Those little fingers

Emma and Daddy

First Smile

Pretty in Pink

Emma and I

First steps

This Sunday, I went to my friend’s baby shower and as she was opening her gifts, I thought back to the days when my almost 5-year-old was a baby. When I got home, the first thing I wanted to do was to go through her baby pictures. As I was looking through them, it brought me back to that first year, I am not talking about the sleepless nights or the constant worrying that you are doing something wrong, but instead I remembered those sweet moments. Here are a few of my favorite memories the very first year.

Her first smile

Her little hands and feet that I could not stop kissing

The first time she looked at me with so much love and I got my very first kiss from her

The first time she laughed

When I heard her say mama

The first time she crawled

When she took her first step

Life is a series of moments and it is pictures that help us capture and remember the precious times that make up our life.

    So sweet!!! I get so nostalgic looking through their baby photos. Sometimes I wish they could be babies for just 1 day so I could relive it :)

    Beautiful little girl. I am smiling because my little girl is now 17 and even age 5 seems so long ago. Time flies by so fast. Cherish each and every moment. I try to with both of my children.
