oh, my girls are growing up

They are growing up so fast. I can't believe how far we've come and where we are today. My computer screensaver is set to slideshow all my pictures so I am frequently reminded of pictures of the girls from the early days. It just blows my mind how much they've changed.

Today, both Lisa and I had different moments where we were wow'd by their progress. The physical therapist that still comes once a week was here today to work with the girls on standing up. She brought a little table for the girls to hold onto and to put things on top that would peak their interest. Lisa was watching as she was demonstrating how to help Alyssa stand up and Lisa said it just hit her...how big our baby girl was and how far they have come.

My moment was a little different. I got home a little late which I hate because it only gives my an hour (or less) to be with the girls before they go to sleep. When I came in and the girls both saw me, they both erupted. They were smiling at me and giggling. They were so excited to see me. I put Alyssa in my lap and we started talking about her day and no matter what I said, she just looked at me and giggled. I've heard her giggle a hundred times but tonight it was a little different, she was hanging on every word I said and would erupt in laughter. This was before Lisa had told me about her experience today. I am just overwhelmed by how my little baby is starting to act like a toddler.

So tonight as Lisa and I are relaxing, catching up on some tv and will be reading a little later, our girls are GROWING!!! It's scary to think we're not too far from toddlers-hood.

Here's some quick pics of the girls enjoying their daddy.
