what's so special about this picture?

I was looking through our vacation pictures and this one jumped out at me.  It's just a quick picture I snapped of Leah in her pjs enjoying breakfast at the cottage we rented.  But there are a few things about this one which jumped out at me as signs of my little Leah growing up...

* We didn't bring a booster seat with us, in fact we never do anymore.  At home Leah uses this chair which is awesome and I absolutely love, but I don't bother bringing anything with us when we travel, she's perfectly fine in a regular chair now.

* We didn't bring any special plates/cutlery/cups for Leah.  The sippys are gone, and while I do use melamine plates at home (Boon ones are my favourite) and small Leah sized silverware, I don't bother bringing any with us when we travel or go to restaurants as she does just fine with regular stuff.

* The nightgown she is wearing is a hand-me-down from Jillian.  Which isn't a big deal, most of her clothing is (I love being able to finally pass down clothing!).  But what's special about this particular item is this was a big sister gift to Jillian when Leah was born.  And now here's Leah wearing this nightgown, sitting and eating her breakfast like a big girl.

So to me this is a picture which says a lot about how fast this little girl of mine is growing!
