Okay. So, not they aren’t REALLY MY girls but they are my “my” girls. Alison and Brittany are 14 today. They are my nieces. They were born 33 1/2 minutes apart. They won’t REALLY be 14 until later this evening. :D.
I remember the night before VERY clearly. We knew my sister was going to go in labor ANY day so Mom and I were staying with her. She woke up and was telling us something about not feeling good and her back hurting (your back would hurt too if you were carring almost 14 pounds of baby)!! SHe was about to step over me to go back to her room and just as her leg went over it shot right back down and she told us her water just broke. (almost ON me).
We headed to the hospital and many hours later Brittany was born at 7lbs 8 oz and Alison at 6 lbs 1 and 1/2 oz.
Here they are around 9 months
and here they are now.
I just can’t believe they are young ladies and not babies. I was around them SO SO much when they were little it was like they were MINE. They were there when I woke up (Sis dropped them off when she went to work) and when I came home from school. We even did some co-sleeping (at times sister had to work more than one job).
People sometime thought that one was mine and one was my sisters. Aaaah… And now how fast our MY boys going to grow???!

Hi Priscilla! Love that name … don’t see it much anymore.
I’m popping over from SITS roll call to say hello.
Your nieces are gorgeous gals! It’s bizarre when you realize how fast those years go by isn’t it?

time really does fly.

Where are they at now? I’m pretty sure they were in school with my little brother, Jaace, who is also 14.
