Anyone sad about babies turning 1/turned 1?

I am so sad to think that my babies are already 1 years old. Their birthday was on December 26th and they had a wonderful time and ate lots of cake. It's finally hit me how fast Madison and Taylor are growing up and it makes me sad. You dont get that time back with them as babies. Does anyone else feel similar?

Lol! That's what my mother said to me! I saw a 5 month old set of twins at sam's club yesterday. I told her, "oh, I miss them being that little!" and she basically said that no you don't miss the sleeplessness, etc. She's right though! I miss the cuddling (try that now! They turn into a rolling alligator!), and just having them so fresh and brand new...but, I love their baby independence and that they're starting to talk and are turning into little people.


By the way, I hope Ellie had a very happy 1st birthday!

Well Ellie turned 1 year today and now more than ever I miss the baby stage and can't wait to do it all again lol!  Apparently I enjoy sleepless days/nights/weeks/months/years???

Yes! It hit me hard that my sweet babies are now 1 and turning into crazy toddlers! The weird thought of "wow, 1 year ago, they were almost a1 month old".

And although their birthday was just 3 weeks ago, I freak out at the thought that THIS year (even if it's 11 mths from now) they will be 2.

Makes me want babies again, then I question my sanity. ;)

i adore Oscar to bits,
and im so chuffed and proud of every milestones he's reaches,

but im absolutly gutted that that new baby stage has gone forever.

Ellie is turning one year on Friday and I too am bummed. It went by too fast and I miss those baby snuggles. I'm excited for what this second year has in store too though. Ellie turning one really makes me want another baby

I feel the same way!!!!  Althought I am glad because of the constant crying we went through but it is sad because this part of my life has ended and I wish I could just keep having babies but I can't :(

I need to look forward to the next chapter in my life but I am going to miss these baby years :(  Ella turns one on the 28th Feb so I still have a way to go.  I think we are just going to have a small birthday for her because that is what we did with the other two!!!!!
