What A Difference!

My friend, Jennie, posted pictures of Karys on her facebook page that were taken yesterday. She's been taking pictures of her since September at a Bible study we do with some other girls. I ended up looking at all of the old pictures and it was then that I realized how much difference a few months makes. That prompted me to post a couple of comparison pictures for your enjoyment. When Karys was really little, I would sometimes prop her up on the Boppy after eating to help prevent spitting up. Now that she is 5 1/2 months old, she's almost able to sit independently and the Boppy helps her with that task. So this first picture was taken when she was less than 3 weeks old...

...and this picture was taken tonight at age 5 1/2 months. My apologies for my foot being in the picture. :)
See what I'm talking about?? :)

Also, a couple of weeks ago we got together with my aunt and uncle, and cousins, because my cousin, Anna, and her husband, David, were in town from Chicago and it was their first time to meet Karys. So here's a picture of Karys and Anna, especially for Anna's benefit.
Aren't they just so cute? :)

Wow. Such a difference. From a sweet newborn to darling baby girl.

About Me

My photo
I've been a wife for over seven years, a mommy of one for 2 and a half years, and a mommy of two as of 12/28/10! :) I married Ryan on July 26, 2003. We always said we wanted to have kids sometime around our fifth anniversary. The closer that time came, the more we started thinking we still needed another year. However, God held us to our original plan because Karys Elizabeth was born July 30, 2008...4 days after our 5th anniversary. :) I quit my job teaching kindergarten to take on the much more rewarding "career" of stay-at-home mom. There are some days that are hard, but I love it just the same. God surprised us again in May 2010 when we found out we were having baby #2. I went through the entire pregnancy expecting him to go past his January 9, 2011 due date since his sister was overdue. However, Zane Elliott surprised us by making his debut on December 28, 2010, and we wouldn't have it any other way! Now that we have "one of each" we could be "done" with our family, but hopefully that won't be the case. :)
