The uniform

I can’t believe we are already at the school uniform stage.

School uniforms today, cap and gown tomorrow?

Because, seriously, that’s how I feel.

I can barely pick up my baby, my numero uno, anymore.

She really isn’t my baby anymore.

Just look at her. She’s wearing a school uniform.

I can’t stand it. I’m so not ready for this.

Can we please go back to the infant room?

Really, I think I’m sort of okay with her growing up. She sang “Jesus Loves You” in the car on the way home and my heart melted.

But, I still love my sweet cuddles and kisses from my numero uno.

    She looks pretty stinkin cute in that uniform, but I know what you mean. I tried to pick up Libby the other day and not only did I almost drop her she looked at me and said, "Mommy, what are you doing?" Where did the babies go???

    Those pictures even make me sad. Her legs look sooooo long. But, you will grow to love those easy uniforms!

    OMG! I can't believe she is big enough for that! Thank goodness we don't do school uniforms. It makes it so much more "official" than wearing regular clothes. Or maybe I am delusional like that!

    Uniforms. Life is so much easier with uniforms.

    *I like how you could do these side by side. That's that other software right?

    She is SO cute!

    My mom always said she loved uniforms, because she didn't have to buy us as much clothing ;)

    Such a big girl now! :)

    I wish we had uniforms at our school. It would make things much easier, imo.

    Gosh, dealing with your kids growing up must be so hard! One minute they are infants, the next they are feeding themselves, and then soon they're off to school!

    Oh my gosh - she is growing up fast! I feel the same way with Miss K. I wish they'd stop it already!

    I'm right there with you, minus the uniform. So proud of him yet sooo missing his baby days.

    I KNOW how you feel! OOO HOW I KNOW!

  12. Stephanie said...

    No way!!! She's getting so big!!! And I understand about the not being able to pick them up anymore. Punky is 40 pounds now and I don't pick her up anymore. I have to sit down and let her sit in my lap!!!

    I know you don't want to hear this but she looks so grown up in that uniform. And yes, it does go by in a blink.

  14. Andrea said...

    Yikes...time does go by fast! She's super cute in that uniform though!! I love how comfy it looks!

  15. Stephanie said...

    Oh the uniform days begin...get ready girl! She is so stinking cute though!
    I still pick up my numero uno and he is almost 7! I guess they will always be our babies!!

  16. Chelle said...

    No! Uniforms?! Already?

    I'm not ready for the "growing up" stage. Not yet...

    But if she has to wear one? She's seriously the cutest little girl ever!

  17. blueviolet said...

    What the heck?!! Your numero uno is adorable!

  18. Mrs. Misadventure said...

    I went to private school from K-8th grade... and I HATED uniforms. I got to high school and I desperately wanted them back!! Ironic isn't it?

    p.s. your numero uno is adorable... and that hair- to die for :)

  25. Loukia said...

    That is a cute school uniform! I like it. She's adorable. I too can't handle how fast my children are growing up... I wish we had a pause button, I really, really do. While each stage is wonderful, it's sad to see the stage before go away, you know? Sigh...

  26. Cheffie-Mom said...
