Tonight its our last night...

With diapers.. Madison will be officially out of diapers as of tomorrow.. day and night. We are starting potty training tomorrow!!!

We told Maddy that her grandma took her diapers with her to give them to another little baby that needs them so its time to be a big girl and no more diapers!

So wish us luck! It will be a long road but Im hoping that she will get it soon.

Goodbye baby years.... hello big girl years!!!

My mommy was here!

So my mommy was here for 2 wonderful and amazing weeks. She did a lot of fun things with the girls and we had a really good time.. Madison loves her grandma. Today when we said goodbye at the airport to my mom it was a horrible and sad goodbye.. Madison held on to my mom and would not let go.. screaming at her Gigi I want Gigi.. it was awful.. a whole line of people waiting to go thru security checkpoint looked at the scene with a lot of sadness. I am so sad that she went home and Maddy has been very upset all day but we are thankful that we had this amazing two weeks with her.. We will be going to Mexico for about a month in September/October so we are looking forward to it!
Gigi... we love you so much and we miss you already!
I love you mommy
Here are some pics of my mommy's visit.

Best Friends Forever!

Ok so you can answer this question for me... what are the chances that 3 families somehow would meet, become friends and the 3 sets of parents would have 3 little princesses... Madison, Allison and Jillian only about a week apart from each other... well the story doesnt end there.. 2 and a half years later the three families would have 2 more little girls first.. Melanie and Emma and a little surprise... another girl.. Ava.. the story did repeat and we beat the odds by having 6 little best friends!!!
Who knows how that happened but sure we are blessed!

Here is the proof!

I got to meet her today!

Ava Juliet Harms

I met little Ava today! We went to see Kimmi at the hospital to meet little Ava... she is one cute little princess! lots of dark hair and she looks just like her big sister Allie!
