2 years = a world of difference

Two years for me has been a blur. Everything goes at lightning speed. Hours become days and days become weeks and weeks become months and next thing you know, your kids are graduating college. But everyday, Ryan and I reflect on how fast they are growing (not always intentionally...it's not like we have a specific time we sit down and say, "oh, let's see how much they have changed...but it does hit us). We both remember how tiny they were and how much they have grown...

This is Ronan, exactly two years ago from today:
And here's Riley, exactly two years ago:

We had just left San Diego -- to make our way back to Pittsburgh -- before we moved to Tampa. We were in Yuma, Arizona...in a hotel...and it would be two years later that the kids would look like this:

I took this picture this morning. I can't believe how much they have changed....And no, Ronan's thighs don't really have those creases anymore. I wish they did, though. Then, they'd probably look a lot more like mine.
