ELEVEN TIMES TWO!!

This post is about a month late, but having all of these girls overnight wiped me out for 3 weeks :) :) 

Lily, Brooklyn, Paige, Mandi, Anna, Sydney; back- Lexie, Shae


The NIGHT after a sleepover.........cranky, tired, had to wake them up for their official family birthday celebration!!


My favorite thing about the twins' birthday is seeing how they prepare for each other's gifts.  This is something we don't have to tell them to do; they instinctively want to get their twin a special gift, and this year was the best yet.  Paige wants to be a fashion designer and created a long-sleeved sparkly t-shirt with Shae's initials.  Shae knows how much Paige loves sock monkeys, so she made her a "funky monkey" out of brightly-colored socks.  They were so proud to give...and so excited to receive!  This picture just warms my heart as their mom :)
 Happy 11th Birthday, Paige Elizabeth!  You are zany, fiercely devoted to your causes (to the point of aggravation for the rest of us), my wacky waffle-maker,  fun, and sweet.
 Happy Birthday, Shae Isabel!  This picture doesn't show it, but you are my tidy-haired sports girl who loves to read read READ, my super-duper laundry folder, sensitive and loving.
 Can you believe these girlies were in NICU over a decade ago?  and made their return trip to the hospital at age one?  They're growing strong and smart and I can't keep up with them.  Mom and Dad are so proud of you, little ladies!

Love you bunches!!

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and forever! Amen.--2 Peter 3:18
