I am almost always too busy to really pay attention to the "last" time we use certain things because, well, one day, he is in the swing...and the next day it is in my way and I have shoved it upstairs in a closet. But now, I don't even remember the "last" time he swung in it - the last time any of my babies will swing in it.
But today marks a special last for me. Maybe goofy for you. But special to me.
Today N wore one of my very favorite outfits for the very last time. Nearly three years ago, I bought this outfit for D. And it quickly became my favorite.
The colors, the fit, the comfort - I loved it all.
When I found out I was having another boy and I went through all of D's old clothes, I pulled out this outfit with love in my heart. I knew that eventually N would wear it.
And wear it he has!
But today, as I got him dressed, I noticed the onsie was really pretty snug. And the waistband of the pants is pretty snug too.
Today is the last time that my last boy will wear this favorite outfit.
So when N woke up early from his nap and we began paying on the floor of his room, I quickly decided to run downstairs and grab my camera.
To capture this last.
Again, this may be silly to you.
But to me, its was important.
So here they are...
The pictures of a "last."
Oh my gosh, your little guy is soooooo cute. Seriously, you make cute babies :)
ReplyDeleteI know exactly what you're talking about. i read an article in parenting magazine about not just taking photos and documenting moments of the "firsts." but also documenting the "lasts." since then, Ry has had pictures taken the last time sleeping in her bassinet, and the first time sleeping in her crib. this may not be our last child, but I am so very aware of what you are talking about. =) <3
