Blast from the Past

I was chatting with a friend today whose son is now 12 and about to enter middle school. In a few short months, he's transformed from a polite, even cute, 5th grader to a smelly, surly, perpetually bored pre-teen. Where does the time go?

It made me nostalgic for when the kids were little, and I looked back at my iphoto albums from the early days (e.g., when I first got this particular computer).

These two photos made me smile....

Can you believe these are the same people? (Sorry for the random bad iphone photo of an actual photo.)
