Sami-Then & Now

My first-born is in SECOND grade! She is sporting a bob haircut this year to better manage the wildness we call her hair. We flat ironed her hair for pics this year, but that doesn't happen every day. Or week. Or month. It takes a lot to tame that mane. 

Sami turns more and more into a sassy, talk-backy pre-teen every day. But she is still my super sweet, big hearted girl. 

This is her then at almost 7 and now at almost 8. Her birthday is in a week and a half and I CANNOT BELIEVE IT! Two more years until the double digits, three more years of elementary and only ten more years until she's 18. 

Stella-Then & Now

Stella has come so far over the past year. She has become a bit more independent (but she does still call us into her room at night when she is cold to cover her up), finally completely potty trained, done with naps (for the most part), and her personality just gets funnier with each new day. 

Here she is at age 3 last year and 4 this year.

Haddie-Then & Now

Haddie has changed quite a bit over the last year. Her hair has grown a bunch, she's a few inches taller, improved speech, a little bit sassier, a little bit funnier and a whole lot sillier. 

The comparison here is from 1.5 years to 2.5 years.  Haddie will be turning THREE in January; I cannot believe it!
