My little man is growing up fast. It seems like it was only yesterday that I was in hospital with contractions and asking for my epidural. We were all excited about the new addition to the family. It wasn’t long until we couldn’t imagine life without our new mini man in the house.
How time flies. The baby boy that I once cuddled in my arms without straining is not quite so easy to lift now.
Yesterday saw the dawn of a new stage in my little man’s life, his first day of nursery. The two hours we were there were full of fun, tears, lego, water, rice and beans (dried) and I will admit I did get rather emotional at the thought of losing my last baby to nursery. It’s quite a hard thing to come to terms with. The children that were once devoted and totally dependent on us eventually no longer need us as much over the years until eventually we see them just a few times a month. Thankfully I haven’t gotten to the final stage yet although I know I will have plenty to fill my time, maybe I will open a cake making business or an online natural remedy company. Whatever I choose I am happy that it isn’t just yet as I still get to enjoy my children that bit longer.
Do you have little ones at home still?
How do you feel / did you feel at the prospect of them going to nursery / school.

Oh wow Mel he is growing so quickly isn’t is, wow x
It’s a little upsetting as I’m loosing my baby.
These photos are so cute and made me smile big time X
Glad you liked them, he is a really sweet child and although I am biased I think he is super cute!
No, my six year old went back to school as a year 2. And you are so right, they grow up way too fast which reminds us all to enjoy our kids every single moment. Lovely photos 🙂
It feels like yesterday I first brought him home.
Very cute photos, I love his face paint. xx
It does look cute doesn’t it lol.
They grow up so fast don’t they? Hope he settles in nicely at nursery.
Thanks JO, I am hoping next visit we don’t have any tears at all.
My eldest has just gone up to secondary school and I must admit I got a bit teary when he went. My other two have just gone up to year 1 and 2. It only seems two minutes since they were crawling around
It is a strange experience isn’t it They seem to grow so quickly. As we get older time seems to fly by so much faster.
I still have little ones at home, they start school next year. Enjoy every moment. You wee guy is so handsome 🙂 xx
Aaaahhhh thanks, he is a sweet little boy. Have fun with your little ones too 😉
We’ve got a while yet before nursery – although I can’t believe how quickly time has flown already! Those photos are so cute; the one with the face paint is just adorable. 🙂
It will come along sooner than you think Jess it did with all 3 of mine. Make the most of having the little one at home.
My child is growing fast too and it’s so cute but we also miss the younger versions of our kids. Your boy is adorable.
Thanks Angela. I know they are so adorable when they are small but then the grown up versions mean you can do more together.
Your little one is absolutely adorable! I hope he settles in well.
Thanks, me too. Fingers crossed.
Bless him he is growing up so fast I remember when u first announced his birth.
Blake won’t be going to preschool til he is 3 the idea makes me realky nervous
Mine is one soon but is so in need to something like nursery. He is only going for a few hours a week but I know it will do him good and give me a brief rest. I bet Blake enjoys it. I know how you feel our second visit we are planning on settling him and going.
Awh, he’s such an adorable little boy! I hope everything went well for him at nursery! xo
Yes thanks, he had a great time.
I have 2 in school and 2 at home. lovely pics. hes a cutie
Aaahhhh thanks he is a little star. It must be very hard with 4 children I barely manage with 3.
My youngest has just started nursery, time has gone so quickly 🙂
It does go very fast.
Sebastian has just started nursery and I had a lump in my throat the first day. I am looking forward to shopping in peace though lol
Lol, I don’t blame you. It’s nice to shop without a little one to take too.
Oh how adorable I hope nursery goes well. My youngest has just gone to junior school and my oldest moved away last year for Uni. He came back every month last year as had work here but doesn’t now so wont see him as much. It isn’t as hard as I thought because I am confident he is doing well there without me.
Wow Uni is a big step, I hope it all goes well.
My daughter is growing up to fast to, it’s scary! Your little boy is so cute.
It is a bit scary, which is why we need to make the most of our time together. Thanks he is my little cutie 😉
Aww such lovely pictures. They do grew so quickly. I can’t believe one of my babies is now 22 ..
LOl, it is shocking how fast time flies.
I keep watching my friend son growing and is unreal! I dont have my own children but is so cute to see them growing fast!
It’s interesting to see the different stages although I am worried about the teenage years.
Aw, bless, they never stay little for long do they! How’s he getting on with nursery? x
No they seem to grow up over night. He’s having a wonderful time. I’m so pleased for him.
It only seems like yesterday the twins were tiny they are nearly 3 time flies you have to treasure every minute x
What a touching post. Your photos are beautiful.
Thanks for your comment. My little man is growing up very fast.
