The Connelly's Visit!

Josh, Tomi, Piper and Eden came to visit us last week! We had a great time with them, spending some time with Chad and Ria on the boat, going to the beach, visiting Gumbo Limbo and just hanging out. Our house was filled with the sounds of little girls. Piper and Eden adore Harlow and spent as much time as they could holding her, giving her the paci, picking out her outfits, giving her baths, and playing with her. Harlow slept very soundly each night as she was so stimulated each day. Leyla was equally as stimulated, not knowing what to do with all the people in her house. I think she gained about 5 pounds from stealing food from the girls all week so she was sad to see them go too. Eden has been asking her mom and dad for a dog, but I think she is going to reconsider after her visit ;-)

Josh and I took a ton of pictures and here are a few:

Believe it or not, this was the best one I got of all three of them. Maybe Josh got a better one? We wanted it for Grandma Connelly, all her girls....Eden actually is cooperating and looking perfect (only time all day she would look directly into the camera), Piper has reached her limit of smiling by this time and looks kind of annoyed, and Harlow, well, she is just trying not to get tossed onto the ground.
