timeline: 1975 – 1982

Inspired by Aimee’s recent trip down memory lane, I’ve decided it’s been quite some time since I’ve posted any childhood photos.

I’ve decided to break it down into smaller pieces, though. Ideally, I will post an update each week. Though, I’m a bit shy about sharing my “awkward years” photos. I’ll see if I can find something I’m willing to share with the Internet. Otherwise, there may be some holes!

I’ve posted this one before. Taken shortly after my birth, two months premature and weighing only three pounds nine ounces.
11 months old. I created a game called “P.U.” where I would pull an item from my hamper, declare it smelly, and toss it on the floor. This went for clean and dirty clothes. It didn’t matter. Hmm … look familiar?

First birthday. Similar age to the photo above, but I couldn’t resist my dad and grandfather’s shirts, or my parents’ orange and olive green couch.
Two years old, in my parents’ backyard.
Four and a half years old, with my new baby brother.
I’m guessing this is somewhere around kindergarten-age, since I still have two front teeth here! My cousin is in the background.
1981, six years old. My mother made that skirt with suspenders.
I’m probably about six here too. (My husband and I laugh at this one since I look like Stephanie Tanner here. I remember at one point she had missing teeth, too. Granted, she probably wasn’t born yet when this photo was taken …)
One of my favorite costumes, Halloween 1982. I am proud to say I have never worn a store-bought costume.
So, there you have it for this week! Stay tuned for more …
