We are getting ready to have our third child in May, and I was looking back at the videos from Noah's birth five and a half years ago on May 9, 2005, in Memphis. It's neat to look back and see how small he looked when he was born and how fast they grow up. Grandma Williams made the trip from Idaho to help out.
My favorite part of the videos is the one where Shelby meets Noah for the first time. She had just turned four when he was born, and her interaction with him is really cute.
It's funny how you remember a lot of the difficult times, but forget how adorable kids are at the different stages until you look back on it. I wish it was easy to remember that during the moment. Even now, I look at the kids as being a pain in the butt a lot of the time, but I'll look back on this moment and long to be there again. Time is always moving way too fast and it's easy to focus on the next moment in life rather than slowing down to enjoy what you have in the present.

It's so true, they grow up so fast. I also agree on how in the moment when it's hard it's easy to forget to just love them while they are still young!
