then and now

We took this photo way back in 2006, just after we had woken up and the reason why our hair is a little messy...well mine anyway.

We decided to recreate the photo in 2011, but us girls mucked it up a little. In our defense it was extremely hard to get ourselves in exact position.

I love looking back at these old photos, seeing how much the kids have changed and grown so big and at the same time wishing that they'd had stayed little forever. We have to do this again in another five years, that is, if we still all fit in the bed :)

would be good if there was one four years before 2006 although the baby would have been too teeny to sit up on her own

katyha said...

thanks Debie, it is! when you hold them in your arms for the first time there are so many things you think. What they will look like, what their voice will sound like, their personality. So to actually get to that stage where you see it all, it is amazing
