Caution long post and lots of photos!! (I’m postponing Tone It Up Tuesday for tomorrow to dedicate the day to my amazing son)
Today is a momentous day. Today my first born, my baby turns 13, a teenager! I still can not believe he is that old. I can still remember the days when every 15 minutes I was cranking that darn swing (yes we had the old crank style swing no battery operated one for us). That swing went every where with us, because with out it he was not a happy camper.


I still remember the thrill of each milestone. Learning to sit up, pulling himself up to stand, and crawling.
His first head stand. Wait What did I just say?
Of course we all remember when our child learned to walk right? The beginning of the end!
Who doesn’t often think about their child’s first birthday?
Who would have thought their child’s first car would be at the age of 2?
He was so excited to finally meet his baby brother, not a jealous bone in his body even to this day.


Oh my gosh he is moving from preschool into kindergarten where did the time go?

Wow, it's always fun traveling down memory lane. What a handsome young man he's grown into be.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today, I appreciate you letting me know how your dieting is going. Keep up the good work, be strong this week.
So far, yesterday was a great day for counting calories, but I was left feeling a bit hungry by bedtime.

That was awesome Colleen! They grow up, but their smiles never change! Thanks for taking us down memory lane, and I'm surprised to see that exer-saucers haven't really changed that much throughout the years 🙂
