Zach is SOOOO through with the swing and the Jumperoo but Mommy is having a hard time with the fact that they are going to a new home today. Tabitha that cuts my hair is having a baby the end of April and we are trading baby stuff for hair services. We gave our infant carseat to Liz's sister-in-law and when I saw a picture of her new baby girl in it, I got a little teary. So, posting some old pictures of my babies in the swing, the Jumperoo and the carseat is my way of coping with the achiness that I feel with these things finding new homes and new babies. The swing is the one item that I'm having the hardest time with. My mom and I bought it on our shopping trip to Portland that we went on the week that we found out Ashley was a girl (yes, when I was only 20 weeks pregnant - almost 5 months before she was due which means we had her swing assembled a good four months before she was even born). We were (and still are) EXCITED to finally be parents to say the least. Now there is no reason for us to keep these bulky baby things around but it is a little sad since Zach is our last baby and it really seems like just yesterday that we were putting them all together for Ashley. We are excited about all of the new things we have to look forward to, though.

sweet pics of your babies!:) Its hard when your babies are growing so fast and you know that there isn't anymore coming. My baby John is going to turn four in July and I still have the swing, the car seat, and the high chair. Just can't seem to give it away even though I know he's our last. Good for you letting go of a few things.
What a great post...those pictures are great! LOVE that last one :)
Great pictures of your babies, Great Memories. I have pictures of Whitney in your swing and jumporoo too.
Great post... print it out for their baby books!! :)
What a thankful heart! It's good to celebrate the memories!
You have some adorable children! Love the baby pictures that can melt a momma's heart!
Oh, what a good post! It is hard to give up that "babiness", isn't it? But they will forever be your babies in your heart!
