the trip home

Here’s another flashback for ya…

These pictures are from when we were packing up at the hospital and heading home as a family of three for the first time.  I had brought one of my favorite outfits (the roots outfit that my Grandma and Auntie Deb gave us) for Jay to go home from the hospital in; however there wasn’t even a prayers chance that he would have fit into it!  As it is, the blue monkey outfit that he wore home was swallowing him whole and it was a newborn onesie!  I love his little squishy faces in some of these pictures- so cute.  I can still hear the little noises that he used to make, man he didn’t make those for long…

so tiny…

Recently I have had to go through our photo library and cleaning it out.  We apparently take a whole lot of pictures (who knew) and we have been running out of space on our drives for new ones.  This is a terribly long process and I am not even 1/4 of the way through- yuck.  However, seeing all of the “old” pictures has been really fun.  I have come across so many pictures of Jay when he was first born,  it’s hard to believe that he was so tiny once… where did my itty- bitty baby go?
