Baby Miles is wearing one of our old onesies in this picture and when I saw it I just started to bawl! It brought back memories of my newborns who are no longer babies and never will be again. It also brought the realization that there will probably be no more baby Tates on the East coast. But being on this side of parenthood (post diapers)has it's shares of blessings as well. We are now approaching a time where we can discuss scripture, literature and life in general with our older girls. I feel as though we are walking through life with our kids now instead of making sure they survive it (Obie being the exception). It's parenthood on a whole new level but just like bringing a newborn home it's still exciting and scary all at the same time.

Josh says that this is the last Tate baby from our side, too.
I made this "coming home" outfit for all my kids but Bowden, but they all wore it. I keep it separately, special because it was your kids first. Maybe one day I can pass it on to Job! Or Elisabeth...first come, first serve.
