Was there ever a sweeter vision than the gentle curve of those soft cheeks, those long lashes that frame those deep blue eyes that have given me insight into myself, and those delicate rosebud lips that find me. Everly has been with us for five months in person, and with each day she shows us more of her soul. When she is herself, she is quiet and at ease. She gives…
Everly Rose at 3 Months
She is almost four months old, our Everly Rose. How swiftly time has taken our days, replacing those warm, sleepy newborn cuddles with an active yet placid baby girl, who is quickly learning how to clutch onto things that she desires. She gazes at me, her mother, with those big beautiful eyes that follow me as I move, her face lighting up as I approach her. I wonder what she…
Life With Everly Rose – 2 Months Old
I wish time would slow down a little. I cannot believe our little girl who I swear was only just born is now almost three months old. I’ve already had to pack away a whole bundle of clothing that she’d outgrown which was an emotional ordeal, and she’s racing through so many milestones. Everly is such a content, happy little thing. She rarely cries, and gives constant smiles. I adore…
Henry at 23 Months
With Henry’s 2nd birthday just one week away, I thought I’d quickly capture his development over the last month before his big day. It is amazing to see him constantly evolving and learning, and it is with awe that I watch him each day, as he learns new things and finds joy in his latest abilities. I love the toddler stage – witnessing our little boy become his own person and discovering…
Henry at 21 Months
Character: Henry is a loving and kind hearted little boy. He loves cuddles and is very caring with both toys and other children. He’s such a well behaved child at playgroup, waiting patiently for his turn and sharing with others. He loves to immerse himself in play and gets lost in a world of imagination with his cars and trains. He truly is a delight to be around and brings…
Henry at 19 Months
Henry has developed so much since we arrived in the US. He is learning so many new things each day that it’s hard to keep up, and his baby days are now long behind him. He is such a loving and patient child – so gentle and caring of those around him, and his bubbling enthusiasm and joy for life is infectious. He is just such a happy little boy,…
Henry At 17 Months
Henry has changed and learned more in the last month than any other time span before. When I read back on his 16 month update I can’t believe it was only a month ago. He seems so much more developed, and I can see him turning into a big boy right before my eyes. I know I keep saying it, but this is the most fun stage so far. I…
Henry at 16 Months
Another month has rolled around. This little boy is growing so fast I can’t keep up. The biggest change we’ve noticed over the past month is Henry’s newfound ability to role play. He loves to put his toys to bed – he covers them with a blanket, kisses them, and then waves goodnight! He likes to play feeding them with his spoon too. He also enjoys picking up the watering…
Henry’s 15 Month Update
Now that Henry is 15 months I can no longer really call him a baby (although I still do) – he is a fully fledged walking, talking, rambunctious little toddler. It was sad to see the last of his baby days, the chubbiness of his cheeks and delicious thigh rolls diminishing with the lengthening of limbs, yet at the same time I can’t help thinking that 15 months has been…
Henry’s 1 Year Update
The months are passing quickly, and Henry is blossoming more and more each day. I’m sure I’ll say this a lot over the years, but 12 months has been my favourite age of his so far. He has become his own little person and it is a delight to witness his quirks and traits come to the forefront. A noticeable difference over the past few months is that he has become a…
Henry’s 10 Month Update
Henry is 11 months old today, how did that happen so quickly?! Before I go off on a tangent about how quickly his first birthday is approaching, I’ll give an update on his 10th month, which has been my absolute favourite age of his so far. His personality is developing in leaps and bounds and due to all the new skills he’s mastering which allow him to engage and interact more than…
Henry’s 9 Month Update
This past month, Henry has been an absolute joy. Whereas I noted in his 8 Month Update that it was a difficult month with him being extremely clingy and having a fair amount of tantrums, his ninth month couldn’t have been more different. He has been so lovely and I feel as though we’re now closer than ever and I cherish the bond we have developed. He is such an affectionate and loving little boy and…
