I have been inspired by Deb's post of Christmas memories, so I dug into the recesses of the closet to find the baby pictures that are awaiting permanent placement in a fully decked out scrapbook. Clearly
that hasn't happened yet.
I tried to put these three in here in a very specific order and Blogger has very randomly mixed them up. So you know...imagine.

This was my third Christmas. If you scroll down two pictures, you'll see this same baby on the day I initially received her. That day she was clothed and had hair. You can see what a difference a year makes. I carried this doll around for years, naked and hairless. What did I do to the hair? DO YOU SEE NOW WHY THE PREDICTION OF TWO BABY GIRLS IN MY FUTURE SCARES ME???

This was my first Christmas - the year I
was the baby. I've carefully cropped my sister out of the background...I know better than to tick people off with almost 30 year old pictures of themselves. Especially right before Christmas!!
Christmas #2. Such a little Mama. HA. Little did this baby know that one year later, she'd be naked and bald. (That would be the doll, not me.) Is anyone else enjoying the Polaroid camera in the background??

Aww what cute pictures haha!!!
Did you ever go to our Christmas Concerts in HS? Jennifer and I were talking about our Freshmen year the other day, when during the religious part Nicole Smith(remember her?) fainted. Jennifer and her sister Julie were honked because they had to carry her off stage during their favorite song haha!
The only year I ever went to concerts was our senior year, so no, I misssed that. I had forgotten all about Nicole. Wasn't she kind of prone to things like fainting?? Seems familiar. What was the song???
I LOVE the baby pictures! Such a cute little girl you were (and are).
My mom and dad are getting Emily her first baby doll this Christmas. I fully expect it (and Emily) to have undergone some radical haircut by next year. It's inevitable since she's watched me cut daddy's hair...except I use clippers (electric shears?) on him, so you know the outcome won't be pretty. Start praying now...
Hopefully she'll stick to cutting hair and not ripping it out by the roots!!! (On the doll AND herself.)
But just to be safe...maybe you better hide the clippers....
I think I had that baby bed! I loooovvvvveeeeee old pictures, they are the best.
You callin me old there, girlie?? ;)
Too cute! Every little girl should get a doll that's almost as big as she is.
Thanks Skyepuppy! I'll tell you - this one "nephew" of mine is about 7 months old and at the rate he's going, in about two more months, he's going to be as big as I am too! He's such a little chunker!!!! I got sore muscles from holding him so much in the nursery on Sunday. WOW!
