A Book of Memories

Over the last few days, I have created a photo book of Caleb's first year that I am now waiting on to be delivered. I haven't had that much fun working on a project in a long time! It was great to look back on all of these pictures from Caleb's first year. It's hard to believe he was ever that small. And Chris and I thought he was extremely cute then, but now we think he is even cuter now!

It feels good to have this project done. I no longer feel as crummy as a mom as I did before. Isn't it awful how we compare ourselves to other mothers/friends around us? I look at my friends and others and see everything they are doing and feel so inadequate sometimes. But hey, I now feel really good about myself that I will actually have a photo album of my kid on my book shelf. Yes, it took me two years to do it, but Caleb doesn't have to know that when he's older. :) Now I just need to get started on his second year book!
