Today I was looking at some photos & videos I got last year with my "point-and-shoot" camera. And I was honestly surprised by how very much Katelyn has changed in just ONE YEAR! I knew she had changed a lot, but my memory of her a year ago is a bit different than what the videos had to show. I remembered her talking and interacting with me so much, but watching them I see that her speech wasn't so clear (not as clear as I remember) and she didn't really say that much. It's odd how I remembered it so differently. And it's just amazing to see how much she has changed. She is such a "big girl" now and nothing like a baby. She still had a good bit of "baby" left in her looks and most certainly in her speech and behavior -even the way she walked.
This first video was actually taken exactly one year ago today. It's a very fun (and funny!) one with her playing with Grandpa Pomeroy & Daddy. She is so blessed to have such a fun Daddy & Grandpa to play with her. They are still favorites on her "Fun to Play With" list. :-) This first video doesn't really demonstrate how much she's changed, but it is too fun! not to post (and the fact that it was exactly a year ago makes it top choice for first video!).
This is of Katelyn and her Auntie Melissa ("Aunt-a-Issa") going down a slide. This was taken on March 22, 2008. Katelyn still loves slides and still won't go down them alone. They scare her if she's alone. I am sure that by this time next year (at age 3 and a half) she will be a dare-devil on them.
This next one is a short one of Katelyn saying, "I Love You." This was taken on March 22, 2008. This is one where I was shocked to see how much she's changed in just a year.
This third one was taken of Katelyn collecting eggs for the first time (LAST Easter). You briefly see her grandma & Alex taking her pictures.
This last one is a fun one of her on a swing at the park. Katelyn used to love the swing & to go fast! But now she doesn't seem to care too much for the swings theses days. (She's afraid of going too high on them.)
Katelyn had a blast watching these (and about 10 others) with me today. I could see she sorta gets that that was her, but not really.

It really is remarkable how big a difference a year has made. I can't imagine what it must be like to be living with a mind that is changing so much, so fast ...
It is, isn't it?!
And I know, I guess we all did at some point live with such a rapidly changing brain- I guess it's sorta good we don't remember. Maybe it's why we don't -it's something we cannot really connect with now? I told you I remember being in the crib (but I am not sure how old I was -probably 2). And that memory is quite different than how I would think about things today - but not extremely different. Hard to describe...
