The first year of the last baby...

 After the birth of your last baby.
The feelings you get!
Yay! This is my last!
I can survive the sleepless nights one.last.time.
Get rid of all maternity Clothes!!!! ( that is one exciting one right there!)
Lose the baby weight and not gain it all back with next pregnancy.
Enjoy the freedom that is coming soon!( no bottles, diapers, naps, you name it. )

And then there are the ..
Oh my word, this is my last! Shock and sadness times....
And you---
Rock her more.
Let the world pass you on by and enjoy each moment.
Not be so freaked out about schedule... just kinda go with the flow.
Spoil her a little more than the others, maybe? Hmmm.. we will work on that.

True quote from our house in this past year:

Brooklyn :"Mom, before Violet was born who was you favorite (Child) then?" :) :)

I love babies.
Always have always will.
The baby days have come to a close around here ( as far as ones i grow in my tummy)...
I survived the one year old birthday.
Not sure how that year went so fast.
But i enjoyed each moment, i really did.

One year later....
All grown up.
Well, looking all grown up.
