Time is going by TOO fast...

It is so hard for me to belive that my baby girl is 3! Where on earth did the time go? Everyone says it will happen, but I really didn't want to believe it. Now that I am experiencing it, it makes my heart hurt. Even though Addison can be a challenging 3 year old, I don't want these days to end. thinsg that come out of her mouth are just too funny. I shoud write them down because she makes us laugh all the time. She is working on letter recognition and seems to have all of her colors and shapes down. We celebrated her 3rd birthday with a Mickey Mouse party at the splash pad with family and friends. Addison has so much fun! She ran and played and laughed all day long. It is so sweet to see her with her "friends". She loves being with them and playing with them. On this day she was so excited to give them the "goody bags" we made. All in all is was a huge success!

Miss Alyssa is following the "growing too fast" trend as well. We are already thinking and preparing for her 1 year old birthday party which is just 2 months away!!! Again, where is the time going?!?! Of course she will not remember it, but we are having a bash! :) Mommy and Daddy survived the 1st year, this calls for celebration! She has her 4 bottom teeth and we are watching 3 top ones all come in at the same time! Poor baby girl! No wonder she was so fussy a few weeks ago! She has just started to say "Uh Oh", she waves, claps, crawls everywhere, and smiles- NONSTOP! I didn't think we could have a happier baby after Addison, but then came Alyssa. Her giggles are the sweetest thing you could ever hear and those big blue, turned green, turned hazel, and now looking a bit brown eyes just looking at you makes you smile!

We had a short summer break in July while I was off from work. I attended a week long conference at Disney so Brian and the girls joined me. After my conference day was finished, we swam in the pool and headed to the parks. Despite the HEAT, it was a great time. We also had Noelle, Dave, and Matthew down from NJ. We had a fantatsic time while they were here- more Disney, 4th of July bbq, and lots of quality family time.
Now summer is over, I'm back to work, the teachers came back today, and the kids return Monday. Let the fun begin! I think the girls were happy to send me back to work, not a single tear was shed and the shouts of joy were heard when Jenn returned. We are SO incredibly blessed to have her in our lives. She is the very best thing that has happened to our family.

I'll post some pictures soon. These girls growing faster and faster and in my opinion getting cuter and smarter everyday! :)
