Well as a kid I always thought that was such a crap saying. When I was six I thought that I would die before my next birthday ever rolled around. I swear I was 6 and a half for AGES.
But alas, here I am, about to turn 30 next month (What? 40 is the new 30 right?) and it seems that there are birthdays every time I turn around.
So when people told me: "take lots of pictures, they grow up so fast". I couldn't help but role my eyes. What? Clearly I know WAY more about being a parent than all of you who have been through it. And although I didn't really take the advice to heart, I do think I've taken a fair number of photos....more just because I enjoy taking photos. And yes, it's going by too fast. Much too fast. Insert sad face here.
But I think we're creating a pretty decent stockpile of photos to remember all these early months by:
Like this one - how cute is that 'lil belly?!
(Last weekend the Mr. and I did a mini photo shoot - he's an excellent helper! These are C at 5 1/2 months)

And this one!!!

And this one that you can't fully appreciate because I refuse to post baby porn - grown-up Charlotte will thank me:
