O Baby!

Rachel, who writes about she and her husband's much anticipated upcoming adoption on her blog "In His Hands Our Adoption Journey", invited other bloggers to join her in posting their baby pictures today. My linking is not working today (will.not.throw.out.window) So, I'll do it the old fashioned way. Visit Rachel's baby picture blog post here http://inhishands-ouradoptionjourney.blogspot.com/2009/04/o-baby.html
I've mentioned Rachel before in a post I wrote about the big giveaway she was hosting to raise money for their adoption. Incidentally, I won the prize package #2 and will be posting more about that in the near future. It was amazing!
Rachel and Josh excitedly await their baby from South Korea. The waiting is not easy, and as she waits, Rachel wants to surround herself with baby pictures. :)
Here is my walk down memory lane... (This was fun!!)
My very first Easter. I was around 2 months old. And apparently not too happy about it. My mom is holding me and my two grandmothers are with us. I think I was probably around a year old in this one...
This picture had some wrinkles and was not kept up the best, so it didn't make for the greatest scan - but here I am at age 4. :)
And six. Yes, my hair was so long I could sit on it.

And high school graduation.

Such fun going through old pictures and all of the memories they hold!

Okay, ready for some super cuteness?? I found these of Dave:

Oh my!! I think he might have been 2 here? Not sure, maybe Mom Mc can help me with his ages.

Check out the chubby cheeks!! I just want to squish them and kiss them. :)

Maybe 4? So, so cute. And some pretty familiar looks...

You were such a dolly baby, I love your wispy hair in your one year pic! My daughter's is exactly the same right now.

Your hubby's cheeks are seriously cute. Isn't it funny how they make the same looks now that they did when they were little? Especially when they're in trouble:)

I can't wait to hear about the prize package. I was so sad I didn't win, but I'm so glad you did!

You were (and are) so cute! Such pretty little dresses! I hope there are more frilly little dresses in your future!

Enjoyed so much seeing you the other night. We must do it again!

Look at that adorable little girlie!!!! You seriously had (still do) the sweetest smile.

And that hubby of yours was quite the little man! Those cheeks are too much.

Thanks for the smiles! And for joining in. :-)

Isn't there something so wonderful about looking back at old pictures? I feel like I know you a tiny bit better now just from looking at these. You were a gorgeous child, it's no wonder you turned into the beauty you are today!

And Dave - oh, I do love those baby cheeks - I definitely see some resemblence in your boys today.

You guys are precious! I wish I could have done this; all my old baby pics are at my mom's and it's too far to drive to get them. :(

My husband was a chunk cheek, too. Aren't those old photos of them the best? (I could do without my own, however. LOL.)
