Mommy and Lauren left on Sunday for NYC. Mommy is there for work and Lauren is hanging out with Grandma and Papa Hawaii (who flew in to play in the Big Apple with her and take in the sites on their own).
That means that we were very far away today when Lauren celebrated her 10 month birthday. Full disclosure, I actually forgot today was the day until Christine reminded me. Perhaps that’s because I can no longer remember the time before Lauren joined our family. She’s certainly growing up fast and it feels like it will be any day now before she is chasing around her big sister in earnest. I love watching the girls together – they are quite the pair. We can already see how Lauren idolizes her big sister, but is also carving out a bit of her own personality – I can’t wait to watch as it all develops.
Lauren at 10 months
We love you Lauren Girl! Can’t wait to see you again in a few days and give you proper birthday hugs and kisses (Maile told me this afternoon that she has “100 kisses” coming her way when she returns and I have no doubt that Maile will deliver them…)
