I'm going waaaay back in time with these pictures. These are from October of 2004 and Addison was almost 2. They're a bit fuzzy and grainy and dark, but they make me smile anyway. How different life was 5 years ago! We had been in Raleigh for 10 months, Bryan was out of the Army (or, at least, Active Duty), I was just about to get pregnant with Libby, we were living in this rent house that we really disliked, and I had just 1 child! There are days I cannot believe I'm about to have a 7 year old and would like nothing more than to transport her back 5 years, but most of the time I'm so thankful for the life I have now, even if that means my children are growing up way too quickly.
