Some of My Favorite Peeps!

By now most of you know my friend, Lindsay. For those of you who don't, here's the abbreviated version of how our friendship started. Just before Mitch turned 1, I was in the toy aisle shopping for Mitch's birthday and started talking to another mom there who had a child about Mitch's age. After talking for a few minutes, we discovered that we have children only a month and a half apart in age (and she has also has an older son, too) and lived in the same neighborhood. We became very quick friends...as did our kids (if you haven't figured it out yet, I'm talking about Sam and Gabe). A little less than a year later, we found ourselves pregnant together, both with more boys (Jake and Luke), who are 10 weeks apart exactly. So...now when we go places together, it's me and Lindsay and FIVE (yes...FIVE) boys (assuming I don't have Jack and Alex...then it's 7)! Crazy, huh?

This summer, we took all of them to zoo, and here was our first attempt at a picture of all 5 of our wonderful boys....

Front Row (L to R): Mitch (4), Gabe (4), Sam (6)

Back Row (L to R): Luke (18 months), Jake (20 months)

Hmmm....maybe next time! :)
