How quick the time goes

Quinn is over 9 months and I find myself being very sentimental. He has been here just a bit longer than he was in my belly. Wow-the time has gone SO quickly in SO many ways (and yes SO slow in many others). I picked up the baby book my Mom made Quinn and was reminded of every week (and more) that I was carrying him (in a much different way). Every week during my pregnancy I sent an email out to those that wanted to hear what I was going through(my folks, John's parents, Aunt Jill & Uncle Pete, Uncle Dave, GAC and GUB). My Mom always wrote back wanting more information. I thought it was just her being her eager self (grand baby-hello!)...but not till Quinn was here did I discover what was really making her so intrigued. Gramma Warren was busy making a memory book with every email exchange over those 9 months. This book holds all the thoughts, feelings, and photos from that time. From the morning sickness, to the first time I felt Quinn move, and every midwife/doctor appointment ...its all in there! She also painted the cover inside and out. Truly special to read, to have, and to share with Quinn someday. Well, Quinn took much interest in it while I was turning the pages today. He loves to see pictures of babies and of himself. He so enjoyed the cover and then seeing some familiar faces on the second page who were there at his birth. It was fun to watch him. Extra kisses on him for being Quinn, and extra kisses to my Mom for all the love YOU put into this book. Thank you, love you, more than you know!
