They Grow Up So Fast

It sounds like a cliche to say that but sometimes it just catches you by surprise how grown up your kids have gotten. I have a nightly ritual to look in on my kids before I go to bed. They always look so sweet when they are sleeping and I love watching them sleep for a few moments each night. Last night when I peeked in on Maddie she looked so grown up. I couldn't believe how big our baby was getting. She looked so cute all snuggled up to her pillow so I called Bret in to come and look at her and we decided to snap a picture.


While I am on the subject of Maddie, I want to post a couple pictures I was going to put up last week. A few entries back I showed some pictures of things Max had made with Lego Duplos, one of which was a rhinoceros which has become one of Maddie's favorite animals. Last week Maddie was downstairs playing and she came up with a Lego creation she had built and said, "Look, I made a rhinoceros!" It was so funny, she is always trying to be like her brother and do the things he does. Here are some pictures of her AWESOME rhino made out of Legos.

I can’t believe how big she has gotten, she is growing up and losing her baby look to little girl look. You guys make cute kids!

I LOVE it! She is such a sweetie. She didn’t even hold a grudge against me for the binky incident! ;-) The rhino is fantastic!

Aw! How sweet! I love looking at my kids when they’re sleeping too. It’s pure heaven.

She looks so precious. Kids are so cute when they are sleeping. And I know what you mean when you said they look so grown up, I took Ben’s pictures Monday, and he looked so grown up… The rhino is awesome!!!!

She has such a sweet little face. Don’t you wish you could keep them little forever.
