Toddlers!

I am lucky to be blessed with some really amazing friends, and that blessing is no more evident then when you see this group of women and kids. 

 I met these ladies a few years ago now.  None of us were moms yet.  We checked in with each other almost daily, expressing our frustrations for wanting children, and not yet being blessed with them.  We struggled through miscarriages and negative pregnancy tests, all the while really only having each other to talk to.  Then, within the span of six months, we all transformed into first-time mommies.  Then there was the late-night feedings, teething, sleep-training.....our bond only grew at the same rate our children did.  

Now, some of us even have had a second child!  We decided to get together and have a little birthday party slumber party to celebrate our "miracle babies" turning 2 years old.  Most of our husbands (okay, all of them) thought we were crazy having 6 ladies and 8 children under the same house.  And to be certain, I think us ladies thought we might even be crazy!  But the whole thing was fantastic!  Our kids had a GREAT time with each other, and of course us women were happy to be amongst our good friends.  

I took my camera along to take some portraits of those big two year olds during our sleepover.

These kids are all so photogenic and gorgeous, right?!  They made the photo-taking a lot easier!

 We definitely will be having another party to celebrate when they turn three years old!
