For the past 6 months my girls have been spoiled to have my sister as their babysitter twice a week. I've already posted about Jennifer and how much she watches my girls, but this time I'm talking about my sister Michelle. When I knew I was going to have to go back to work, I was in total denial over what I would do with the girls. I didn't want to impose on my family but both my sisters were adamant that these little girls would not go to a strangers house or daycare. So they took it upon themselves to work out a schedule that would work for them and us.
Right before I went back to work, Michelle announced she was pregnant. The funny thing was she was dreading telling me because she would only be able to watch my girls until she had the baby. I was thrilled for her and didn't care. Well those 6 months have come and gone and now my sister is getting ready to welcome a new little girl into their family in the next month.
Monday was the last official day Michelle watched my girls for me. They have LOVED it over at Michelle's. They don't even flinch when I put them down and walk out the door and that gives me such a peace of mind as I leave them each day. They love their dog Ally and Ally is so patient with them. The girls have trained her well for when a new baby arrives. And Collin is always so good and patient to share his mom with the girls twice a week. Often when I come to pick them up, friends are over playing with her kids and they are always playing with the girls and helping out.
Michelle has been so good to keep them on our crazy strict schedule and calls me multiple times a day to update me on what they're doing. Michelle has been a lifesaver and answer to prayer for me.
THANK YOU Michelle, We Love You!

I can't believe you posted a whole post just about me!!! I'm glad you didn't post this on Friday. I was so sad it was my last official day with them. I can read this post without shedding a tear. I'm glad I could watch them, I sure love those precious faces. The pictures turned out great. I'll be stealing them for sure.
That picture with the girls and Michelle is perfect. I love how they each have their own smile. It is so funny!
I wish I lived closer. Emmy would love to have these girls over. Can you transfer to California?
