Time Goes Too Fast

Last night I was just laying in bed thinking how fast time goes. I just finished feeding the baby and I realized she was already 3 months. It seems like yesterday that I just had her but then that also seems like a lifetime ago. She has changed so much in that 3 month period. She is more interactive and smiles all the time. I also started thinking how fast my two other girls have grown. I know they are only 3 and 6 but where did the time go. I realized that I need to enjoy the passage of time. I need to stop stressing out about every little thing and enjoy the time with my family. Because before I know it, they will be teenagers. And I can only imagine what that will be like. I already get the eye rolls.



Here is Mckenna at 2 years old. Isn't she so cute!


Here is Karley. She is just a little older than Olivia is right now. I love those big brown eyes.


Here is Olivia. She is just a cutie pie.

This is my life. This is my family. I have a wonderful husband and 3 great girls. I couldn't ask for anything more. So I am committing myself to enjoy my family more. Create more memories for them and me. So when the time comes and they are older, I will know where the time went. Spending it with my family.

I totally get you on this - Time does fly and when you look around they are bigger than you remember...I can't believe that Mason will be receiving the Aaronic Priesthood in a couple months...my second one will be baptized!! I never imagined things could be like this - so yes - we need to sit back and soak it all in...make sure we make moments count!!

Great Post!!

I too, need to stop and soak in each and every moment with my kids. My kids are no longer babies and I miss that time SO much. But it makes me appreciate my future with them even more.

First, I have to ask about the "blog administrator." Should I be worried about my posts? Very authoritative. :) Your girls are very darling! I love the one of Karley. She looks the same! DARLING!!
