From Baby to Toddler

Tonight I will rock my baby to sleep. In the morning I will be greeted by a toddler. A sweet, funny, mischievous one year old toddler. I will begin the process of weaning from our morning nursing sessions (the only one we have left) to milk. Part of me is overjoyed to leave this part behind while the other part of me so deeply mourns.

I will replace all the bottles with sippy cups, all the body suits with t-shirts and pack away more outgrown clothing.  We did it. We made it! A year went by with little sleep and hearts so full they could burst. In awe how a year can be so hard but at the same time so wonderful. You are our silver lining.

Even though technically you're a toddler tomorrow. You will always be my baby, now and for always.
I made this infographic by downloading a 30 day free trial of photoshop and then edited it in PicMonkey. I had it printed at a local Kinko's and I glued it onto a foam board! Super easy and inexpensive!

      Hey Liz! I downloaded a free trial of Photoshop, watched some YouTube videos on how to remove images from photos. Then I went into PicMonkey and made a collage from them! Pretty simple and lots of fun!
