High waters

I know my girls have grown this year, I mean they are kids, right. Kids grow. But when you see them everyday like parents do, it is easy to miss the small changes. That is until it is no longer a small change.

My middle daughter... Her many new inches were undeniable when I noticed how SHORT her pants were! WOW! I mean they pants are more like capri pants now. These are her school pants that were hemmed for her in August and now she could ford a river in them. This growth definitely needed to be documented. For this page I used my May 2012 Jenni Bowlin kit that is one I purchased during my subscription.


This is like 3+ inches! And I am pretty confident that there is not really much shrinkage from washing. They are uniform pants. No cotton involved. LOL.




So once, I noticed just HOW short her pants were, I looked at the other girls, and they are the same. My oldest is almost as tall as me (YIKES!) and the youngest went from 37.5 inches the first week of school to 39.5 inches the last week of school. It is making me wonder if making them wear a brick on their head will slow the growth. I am not ready for this!! Time is going too fast!!!

Breathe. Breathe.

Well, happy Wednesday everyone. I hope you are having a fabulous day. Thanks for stopping by!

  2. I had that with Nate and his Angry Birds sleep pants he just got at Christmas time. Already too small. He cried ro I told him I'd try to make them into a pillow for him. Yet to try that project, but I feel ya about them growing. Seems like their pants fit one day and not the next.

    Your page is lovely! Great way to use the paint to mat the center focal point.
