Addison and Benjamin

Once upon a time there were two babies who were born exactly two months apart while their mommies worked at the same school.

A few months later these babies went trick or treating together for the first time

And then they celebrated a pretty little girl’s first birthday!

They even went on a date together for cupcakes!

And now as three year olds they are the best of friends and worst of enemies. 

We are SOOOOOO blessed to have sweet Addison Berkley Harmon in our lives.  Not to mention her amazing momma who is one of the most generous people I know (I could write a book about what her friendship means to me)!  Ben and Addie started going to school together last year and as luck would have it they were in the same class.  Their friendship as grown and they’ve even started referring to one another as Benjamin and Addison (they must have heard their momma’s call them once or twice).  But just as their friendship has grown, they can do a 180 on each other in a split second.  And then just as we are about to split them apart to go home, they’re playing together in perfect harmony Smile  They are both very strong willed, stubborn and hysterical.  I love that Addie doesn’t take any of Ben’s crap.  Between school, being in the same playgroup, doing MOPS (not to mention living just minutes away), we get to spend a lot of time with this precious girl.

One day Connor and Addie will get married and Ben will be Connor’s best man Smile

One of my favorite Addie/Ben stories.  We were over killing time until the daddies came home from work and the kids were playing.  All of the sudden we hear the bath running upstairs.  They were in the bath together.  Then they put on pj’s (yes, Ben’s looking sweet in Addie’s kitty cat pj’s) and curled up in bed for their sleepover.  Soooo funny!
