Don't Want To Close My Eyes

The weather this week has been perfect so we are taking every opportunity to be outside, especially playing at parks.  About thirty minutes into playing today, Elyse and Caleb decided to get off the playground and walk back and forth on the sidewalk.  I do not know if it's because we don't have sidewalks or what, but they found it very entertaining.  I was sitting next to Kallen watching them walk back and forth following one another while laughing and singing.  I just sat there in ah of how big they were and how fast time really does go.  I love my children so much and really need to capture every moment of everyday.  I feel like every time I close my eyes they grow two feet taller, weigh five pounds more and become a year older.  I know I am not the only mom that feels this way.  I also know it's a happy thing to see them grow and develop, but watching them today made me not want to close my eyes anymore.


Below are some pictures I took of the kiddos playing

Time really does fly - especially with kids. Liam is finishing up his last week of preschool, and I'm starting to freak out about it a bit! Thanks for sharing all your pictures from the park :0)
