the big boy chair...and separation anxiety


Finley had a swing that he didn't like at all. This morning though, mom and I took the chair out of it and put Finley in it. It is now his own little rocking chair. I think we are finished with the bouncy seat...kinda sad.
You hear about babies having separation anxiety, but I may have a small case of it myself. Mom and I have been going through my maternity clothes and Finny's baby clothes that he has outgrown. I cried when we went through the maternity clothes and just couldn't stand to part with some of his newborn clothes. Every outfit has a memory. Mom was laughing at me because I even kept his outfits that I had to go out and buy the day I was at church with Finny and he had a blowout. I didn't have an extra outfit so I had to buy some clothes at Target for him. I kept the first outfit that he went to church in, and last night when he had rice cereal for the first time, mom jokingly told me that I would have to keep that outfit now too. She doesn't know that I probably will for that very reason. =) Almost everything for Finny (and me) is a first right now and I want to remember them forever and keep them forever if possible. There were a few baby outfits and a lot of maternity clothes that I felt I could part with for Becky to use. Becky, I hope you will enjoy being pregnant and when you have your baby enjoy all the firsts as much as I have...and keep all the clothes that remind you of them.

Wait a sec! What's this I hear about Becky being pregnant? Is it true? Are there going to be two little Stabley babies now?

Thanks for the stuff Sharon! I hope that some outfits can have multiple meanings for both of us!
