The past six months have been a blur. Heck, the past year
has been a blur. And what I really can’t believe even more than the fact the boys are
one, is how much they have grown!
And I know every parent says that. But maybe
I’m just a little extra blown away because they started out so extra tiny.

Or maybe what's really blowing my mind the most is how not-so-tiny they are now!

Crazy, right?! That's what has really been blowing my mind lately is to look at
pictures we took from one year ago today (or on that given day), and compare them to where we are now. The boys
were still in the NICU last year around this time. In fact they wouldn’t come
home for two more weeks. Boggles my mind!
Time moves differently once you have
children. It becomes much more measured. I have always had an idea of what
happened in a past year…but never something so measurable or memorable to compare it
to.
For example, last year at this time...
Everett had just been moved to his own
open crib. And that was a BIG deal!
See how tiny he was?! |

Fast forward a year!

And this week the boys are:
Walking all over creation! And reading books, making animal sounds! Talking like crazy!
I have videos, but they won't upload. Of course. But here are a couple of pictures at least to get you by until the videos will work.

And plenty more pictures to come!
I just don’t know where the time has gone. I do know that we
love these two more than life.
DOUBLE LOVE!
