1 Year Video

I compiled some of the pictures that were taken of Jack over the last year. My baby is turning ONE in less than two weeks. My....Baby...Turning...One...(sniff-sniff)... I think that it is a cruel joke that babies grow so fast and that you are so sleep deprived that you can barely remember how to tie your shoes, much less what they looked like last week. Just today (well, I am blogging early in the morning, so actually yesterday), I was asking Jay if he remembered that when Jack first started sitting up, if he smiled too big, he would loose all concentration and fall over. Sadly, Jay said that he does not remember this. This only makes me wonder, "What have I forgotten?", what cute little things have occurred and is now a moment lost in time?

Jack's birthday party is in just a couple weeks. My sister keeps asking me what theme I have picked and what all do I have done for the party. Truth is, nothing is done. I am not willing to accept that Jack is actually turning one, so there for, I am not dealing with it. I really should just get over it. Really, I should...I am hoping if I keep typing it that I will...not working so far...I know that if I let him turn one, that next year he will just insist on turning two...definitely can't let that happen... The other day, I was reading in one of my parenting books about what your child is up to at this age. The book called my baby "Your Toddler". I am not ready for him to be a toddler. If you watched him race up and down the aisles at Lowe's yesterday afternoon, you would insist that I actually have a Preschooler, but no, in my heart, he is a baby.
