Looking at them side-by-side, you'd never know they're only three and a half months apart in age. Macenzie was born Feb. 16 to my best friend Desiree and her husband, Tim. When we drove down to southern Illinois on April 1, we stopped in Charleston to meet Macenzie and so Desiree could meet Allie.
Here's me holding Macenzie. Look how tiny she is! It didn't even feel like I was holding anything.
Desiree and I have been friends for almost 11 years now. Wow, 11 years! We lived together in college and were in each others' weddings. Being pregnant at the same time made me really wish we lived closer. It would be fun for our babies to have instant playmates. But we do what we can to visit and talk on the phone or facebook, even though thats a lot harder now that we both have infants! It helps that Charleston is on the way to Carbondale. So its easy to stop for a visit on the way.
Even though we don't live very close, I know Allie and Macenzie will become fast friends like their mommies.
Cute pictures! What's crazy is to think that that's how much Allie has grown in the last few months.
