I'm a Great-Aunt!

Wait... you're wondering how the cute little 4 yr old twins made me a great aunt. Well, they became "mommies"... & here are their new babies....

Say hello to Madi's baby boy - Tommie (which is named after my dad - her Papaw!)

And hello to Sophia's baby boy - Charlie


They are so tiny... one is just over 3 lbs - the other just over 2 lbs.... but these girls are in LOVE! Madi saw Tommie the first time a couple of weeks ago & she was in tears to leave him. My brother video taped their conversation... I was laughing so hard at it.

Madi couldnt catch her breath as she had puffy eyes & said "He looked me right in the eyes ... & I... Love... him!!!!!" (the .... are code for sobs of breath in between words... it was pitiful!) She told her mom & dad they "just didnt understand because they didnt hold him".... yep - good ole mom & dad gave in & got Tommie for her.



& Sophia couldnt be left out either.... she got her little Puggle



I dont know if these babies have been on their feet for more then 30 minutes a day - the girls are too busy holding them. But they already know where the comfy place to sleep is at.... can we say "Spoiled puppies"? (See them both in each of their laps sleeping?... isnt that adorable!)


The dog count in our immediate family with my 4 & now my brothers 2 .... we've almost got more 4 legged family members then 2!!!!

this is seriously one of the cutest things I have ever seen!! I love that they both got puppies, although what a big adventure for their parents with potty training them & such coming up! haha. But they are ADORABLE!!

They are sooooooo cute! What great pictures! What snuggly puppies!

When my newphew had their baby, I called my only niece (I have 8 nephews) to celebrate: "I'm a great aunt and I don't have to even try!

I'm siding with Puggle--what a cutie pie with an austere look!
