I have some stuff to post coming up but I thought I would start with a few sweet sister pics. Alexis and Ryan are everything I wanted growing up. Don't get me wrong I LOVE my brothers! However, after my baby brother Carter was born I remember repeatedly asking my mom to have another baby so I could have a sister. She finally told me one day I could have my own kids and maybe they would be sisters. After I got married and inhereted 3 fabulous sister-in-laws I was pretty happy, then my brother got married and I got another great sister-in-law Brenda. I was ecstatic to finally have SISTERS!! Then Ryan was born and both my girls got what I always wanted and they are so sweet to each other and so blessed to have each other. I'm so not saying they NEVER fight but, honestly, they mostly don't. Alexis loves teaching Ryan things and Ryan loves when her big sister helps her. The newest one Lexi is working on is teaching Ry to swing by herself and she's actually starting to get it! They both seem slightly lost when the other isn't around especially Ryan now that Lex is at school all day. She lights up when I tell her it's time to go to the bus stop to pick up Alexis! I love finally having so many wonderful sisters in my life!!!

SO CUTE!! Sisters are the best!! I love the pics of Alexis carrying Ryan on her back. Does Ryan ever try to get Alexis to ride on her back? I think that's the funniest because the little ones want so badly to be like their big sisters!

And of course the drinking pic is so adorable too!

So dang cute. I really miss those girls. I am so glad they are such great friends. I know my sister is one of my best friends. I am sure they will cherish each other always.

Monica, those girls are so sweet!! I grew up with boys too and was thrilled when they started getting married because that meant I'd get to finally have sisters!!

It really is a wonderful thing to see our girls benefit from the gift of sisterhood. LOVE the post because I can totally relate!
