I want to start traditions for our family so our young kids can one day look back on unique fun things that make us a family, not just the trials and travails of having us as parents. for instance, a few months back we started friday movie nights...grocery store pizza on the living room floor and a kids movie. we had to stop for awhile when harry got too busy to be a passive participant in our film fest. but we hope to begin again soon.
today is a special day in our house that i hope we can mark with another miller family tradition...the birthday birth time photo. our oldest jude is now a big four year old. we've succeeded in getting the picture three of the last four years. here's a look.
5:04pm Jude at four years
Jude at age one 2009
Jude at two 2010
notice we got the time wrong in year two! oops
in year three i was seven months pregnant with harry and just happy to make it through the day. too bad we missed the photo op on the stairs. but here's a picture from the party that day in 2011.
Jude age 3 2011
jude's fourth birthday also means the oak park baby blog is celebrating four years also. what began as greg's ambitious record of jude's hospital experience has become a treasured and hopefully honest and encouraging record of parenting, our family and baby products and tips. thanks for reading along all these years.
Awesome, thanks for sharing this with all of us!
