My Baby is getting BIG!!!


WOW! That's my baby!

It's exciting, silly, and sad all wrapped in one....my baby is getting so BIG!!! She is getting so big, learning new things, copying her sisters every move, and becoming a little person with the most hilarious, spunky personality. She is so sweet and so tough all in the same moment. haha. We definitely laugh when Paige is around. We love you (even with those 2 1/2 year old moments)!
This is sorta old news...but we are so proud of Paige! She gave "Santa" her binky a month ago and hasn't looked back since. She loves her baby that was left just for her....It makes me sad, but so excited that we have had no diapers/pullups for 6 months and no soother now. My girls are getting big and becoming little ladies! I. Love. Them!
