Just for me!

This next post is really just for matt and I. I have several notebooks filled with the girls growth info and the things they have done since they were born, but since my sweet Alyssa loves to get those notebooks and write in them or tear out the pages, I decided I would just post their info on here!

I am going to address both of my sweeties in this one post since they share the day of their birthday. They are 2 1/2 years apart to the day! This age difference has worked out perfect for us!
