They Grow Up So Fast

Posted By: Adam 3 Comments

I was just link-surfing to kill a few minutes and ended up at my Dad's blog and then to his Flickr pictures. One of his most recent photos on Flickr was Dylan getting a bath when he was about 10 days old.

No, that's not George Hamilton, it's Dylan getting a bath, at 10 days old

It's hard to say exactly how many baths the boy has had now, at just shy of 5 months old and a schedule of two baths a week plus "incidentals…" (Gee, why might an infant need extra baths?) … So we're probably talking something in the neighborhood of 50.

It really hasn't been that long, but still, it's hard to look at Dylan and remember him being so small that he needed the sling in the bath tub… he's almost to the point where he's outgrown the tub entirely now, and he has a lot more balance and motor control; and I can't imagine how soon — it will feel, at least — he'll be bathing himself.

  1. ...or til he's riding a bike, driving a car, or eek! getting married and having a boy of his own!

    Yes, time moves way too fast! All the more reason to remember to stop and cherish every moment you possibly can now, because you certainly will never get another "now" later!

    (p.s. what a handsome boy!!)

  2. I'm pretty excited for the time he gets his first motorcycle and gets to ride around with Uncle Justin! I'm planning it out already! T Minus 17 years and 7 months...

  3. Take it from someone who feels like he missed out on everything (even though thats a stretch), time flies very, very quickly.
