How Time Flies.

Sawyer James
Birth-Present

Just realizing how fast the time goes. Sawyer is going to be 8 months in 2 weeks. I can’t believe it. My little boy is growing too fast! Sometimes the days seem to drag on as we wait, but we are 5 nights away from the surgery now! Exciting and not at the same time. I had my nice little cry at a friends house yesterday, but I’m all tied up in my shiny strong box with a bow again. But I am just constantly looking at all of Sawyers pictures. Seeing how much he has changed in a short amount of time. So hopefully this week goes by just as fast!

Sawyer and Jack
Birth and 7 Months

Sawyer and his little Buddy Jack. Born one day apart! Sawyer is only older by a couple hours really. I have worked for Jack’s Mommy in the past watching her two older boys! Jack and Sawyer first met at his baby shower and have gotten back together a few times since then. We just had a play date last week and wow have they grown since the first time. {sawyer is in the right, and then left of the two pictures} Jack {‘s Mommy} was the one who was so super thoughtful when Sawyer was diagnosed, and sent cards and the little surgeon bear. Who will accompany us to the hospital on Wednesday. I hope these two continue to grown up together.

Sawyer and Claire
1 Month, 3 Months
5 Months, 7 Months

This is Sawyers girlfriend Claire. I adore that these two have known each other from day one too. I continue to get shots of them together at all our play dates. Which have turned into a mini Mommy’s weekly group. Those little meet ups have given me my sanity back. Good for Mommy and Great for Sawyer.  It was so fun being pregnant with a friend at the same time and now these two get to have a lasting friendship as well!

Bump to Baby
9 Months Pregnant-3 Months Old

The ultimate time flies photo. I can’t believe last year I had just found out our little bump was going to be a little boy. It seems forever ago and still like yesterday. Many of you know I was desperately wishing for a little girl. I had never grown up with boys and I’m as girly as it gets. I was so afraid of not knowing what to do with a boy! Now I really truly can’t imagine life without him. His smile brightens my day, his laughter lights up my world. And even when he wakes up at five am I find myself fighting the smiles when he just gives me his cutest faces, because he is so excited to see mine again. He is the reason I am going to be strong on Wednesday. My little man, the best thing to ever happen to us.
