Baby Baby Baby Baby

Over the last week, I've been obsessed over Elle's pictures from the first 2 months of her life.  I cannot believe how much she's changed.  It's incredible and sad all at the same time.  I'm not sure why I've been so emotional lately, but I just want to push a pause button. 

Nine months of pregnancy felt like a lifetime, but after I had Elle all I could think to myself was, "it only took 9 months to create this perfect baby?".  Now I'm watching her grow in front of my eyes.  I remember going into the store a few weeks after she was born and I saw a rack full of backpacks.  I could barely keep it together because someday I would have to send her away to school. Crazy, right?  Maybe, but it comes with the territory I guess. 
My Mom would always say, "just wait until you have kids, then maybe you'll understand!".  OK OK MOM.......... you were right.  I'm becoming the overprotective crazy lady I once thought she was!  LOVE YOU MOM!

Here's one of my absolute favorite pictures of Elle.  She is 4 days old and sleeping like an angel.
