My Babies Turn 2!!!!

My friend Lindsey (Who also took the girls Tutu pictures) took these of the girls when I visited Michigan!

Ella turns 2

Ava Turns 2~

My little girls!


The girls turned 2 and they have really started to talk alot now, expressing all of their wants and needs...I am loving this age!  We had an Elmo themed bday party if you can't tell and my friend Lindsey took these photos of the girls because I told her I had no photos of them together except for the tutu pictures she took of them Last May!  Luckily I caught her before she left for Africa for 2 years :( Although she will be doing amazing things, I will miss my friend!

Stompin In the Rain!

Ava and Ella stomping in the rain in their "bw-ooooots"

The girls had a wonderful time playing in the rain. Their boots were too big, I had to stuff plastic bags in them just to get them to fit! They cried when we had to go inside.... oh 2 year olds!
