Precious babies.....

They ARE precious.
So innocent, helpless and beautiful, all at the same time.
We went to the hospital Friday evening to see our niece
and her husband's new little baby boy. He is just beautiful!
She has two sons now and has a wonderful husband to raise them with.

I can remember the time that I held her in my arms.
Her tiny little self, so cute and sweet.
And now she's a mother herself.

I'm amazed at how the time flies you know.
I speak of it often here because it's something
I want to try to remember.
I want to remember so I can cherish the moment....
because in the blink of an eye it will be gone ~

Something else I found the other day while antiquing
was this antique baby photograph.
I wanted to share it with you!

I hope you have a great weekend dear friends ~
hugs and love,
Dawn

I think that's sweet that your hubby thinks of you and picks things up that he thinks you'll like. Can't wait to see his finds! Thanks for letting us know about the giveaways. It's also a great way to find out about new blogs {or new to me anyway}. I'm going to check them out now.

Thank you sweet Dawn!!! I don't know if there is a sweeter blogger out there, I haven't met them if there is. Of course your hubby might qualify for the sweetest blogger hubby, I mean you have him trained right, girl!!! Can't wait to see what he found.

Aren't newborns just the best thing in the world, honey??? All sweet smelling and soft and their little bums I could kiss all day. Cooing and flicking their little tiny tongues. Aaaaahhhh, I want some great grandkids so badly to smooch and hold......Maybe soon.......

What a sweet photo, Dawn! I can't think of a more exciting family event than that of a new little life coming into the world~

Hi Dawn! Thanks for the heads up on the two giveaways..I'll trot right over there after visiting you!
I was just thinking about Zac (28) and how vividly I remember him as a little guy..and was overcome with emotion..longing for that experience again. And now he's gonna be a daddy! I can't think of Lindy now without crying, my heart is so full. Did you feel that way before Clara was born?
Have a lovely weekend, nesting!!
Hugs,
Myrn

Hi Dawn,
How wonderful that your niece has 2 little boys now! I love what you wrote about cherishing the moment. I remember when my boys were just tiny babies fresh from God. When I would cuddle them while I was rocking them I would be thinking to myself how very much I always wanted to remember how soft their skin and hair felt, how wonderful their little fingers felt wrapped around mine and their sweet baby smell. That time of my life was like no other and to this day I still can remember the sweetness I felt. Truly, one of life’s most precious gifts from God.

Thank you so very much for visiting my blog and leaving your very lovely comment! I am so happy you entered the giveaway and I also want to thank you so much for including a link to it in your beautiful post! You are such a sweetheart!

I will enter your name in the drawing 3 times…Good Luck!! I'm off to visit Angela's blog! :)
Hugs,
Carol Anne

Thank you for sharing the sweet baby photo! Yes, you are so right... they grow up sooooooooo fast! Funny I did a post on Carol Anne's give away too. She has some great goodies & should get a lot of traffic on her blog because there is a lot of folks sharing it. Have a great week.
