Bye, Bye Baby...

Yesterday I was practicing Piano with Madi and Avery was supposed to be sleeping. Although I knew she was not I left her there while we finished. Then Emily says "I think I can hear Avery coming out of her room" and sure enough she was. She climbed out of her crib. She was so proud of herself and did not want anyone to help her out when she woke up this morning. So we all watched her climb out of her crib and she was very cautious. My baby is to big for a crib, What happened???

My girls are growing up tooo fast...

Yesterday we picked up Madi from school and on Fridays we take Madi's friend Landon home. Madi loves to show Landon to our car. She looks like she feels like she is his mom. Then we get in the car and Madi puts her arm around him and says "Mom look at my buddy and I". I respond with "oh yep, nice". Then we get to Landon's house and Madi and Landon decide that he needs help carrying his poster into the house which he did not because he carried it out of school just fine on his own. But I went along with it and told her to come right back. Which she did but while she was gone Emily said "Mom I wish I had a boyfriend". I was so surprised by her comment that I started laughing. Then I jokingly said "maybe when you get in kindergarten". I can not help but notice how fast my girls are growing up. I did not even know she new the term boyfriend. It reminds me of the songs Don't blink by Kenney Chesney and Your Gonna Miss This by Trace Atkins. I do not want to miss out any part of my kids lives. I love hearing about their day and their thoughts. My girls make me Happy!! I love you cuties.

Old Friends...

Tonight we had one of my best friends from Elementary, middle school, and high school come over for dinner with her family. We had so much fun!! Shannon and I were so close and tonight it was just the same as it was before. Shannon has two beautiful little boys whom my girls loved. They did not want them to leave. Emily even asked one of them to marry her. :) Silly girl. We loved being able to spend time with you guys. I hope we can get together again soon.
