Where oh where did the time go??? I can’t believe Gus is 2 already. I went back and reread from his birth to the 1st week of his NICU stay. I can’t even believe we went through all of that. I feels like forever ago.

Due Date
Well today is the day my baby should have been turning one. (Or a few days after with my history 😉 ) Instead my wonderful lil’ guy came to us 6 weeks early! He’s such a sweetie and so very strong. Life with him is amazing ❤
He gets into EVERYTHING!!!!

My Baby Was Barely A Baby!!
I feel really cheated. With Gus being born early it seemed like it took forever for him to be a “baby” Then all of a sudden he’s not a baby anymore. He no longer eats baby food, he doesn’t sit in the bouncy seat, he refuses to use the exersaucer, he’s out of the infant car seat and now rear facing in the convertible car seat and I just packed away the baby bathtub 😥 In 2 weeks my “baby” will be one. Where has th time gone??
(I don’t really feel cheated, I cherish every moment with my children. This was just an observation on how un-baby my baby has been 😆 )
