Sister-in-Laws Birthdays

So I have two fabulous sister-in-laws that had birthdays this month.

Nicole's Birthday was on the 19th and Kenzie's was on the 22nd


One of Nicole's most endearing qualities is her love of her family. She is such an amazing mother and I love watching her in action. She's a great example of how to treat your spouse and I'm sure Ryan knows how blessed he is to have her. She always makes me feel welcome when I'm with her and doesn't mind if I drop by to have Gage play with her fun kids. Her kids are a tribute to what a great mom she is.
She is also extremely talented. She is way too humble about her gifts, but she has many. She is an excellent cook, runs marathons, very crafty (she makes fabulous diaper cakes), takes beautiful photography, and is a great listener. Nicole also has a silly, hilarious side that totally cracks me up. Nicole, I love you tons and I'm so glad that you are apart of our family. You make any family party so much better when you are there. I can't wait to have you guys back in town.



Now for Cody's little sister Kenzie. I really don't think I deserve someone as sweet as Kenzie to have as a sister-in-law. From the very beginning when Cody and I were first dating she has really meant something special to me. We bonded immediately and we've stayed great friends ever since. I know she helped out with Gage a ton while we were on our trip and I'm so grateful for how good she is with him. I guess she would be a pro considering she has a little girl only 2 days younger than Gage, and now we are both due with baby #2 in Oct. It will be so fun to watch our kids have such fun cousins to play with (we'll just have to see what the genders are for Babies #3 and #4 being born in Oct. 2010 and 2012 :)

I hope you both had fabulous birthdays and I feel so blessed to have you.

For some reason I can't post a comment on the post about your trip...It looks like you had so much fun! I am glad you are back because we missed you. I am gone for another week, but we will have to get together when I get back.

What a sweet tribute to your sisinlaw. She sounds amazing. She looks like she could be Cody's twin. Darling pictures Aubs. There's nothing better than loving your sisinlaws. I lucked out with Brett's sisters. They are the best.
