My two best friends and I met in college. Kelli and I lived next door to each other freshman year and chose to room together sophomore year (people referred to us as just Kelli and Meg and I don't think they really knew which one of us was which). Sophomore year we met Sara who lived downstairs in the dorm. By Junior year the three of us decided to move off campus together, and we lived together our Senior year too (until Gabe and I got married that March).
I loved living with my best friends! We really didn't have any issue's and got along great. After graduation we all went our separate ways...Gabe and I headed to Scotland, Kelli went to NC, and Sara went to VA. It was very hard being so far apart from my favorite ladies. We were in each others' weddings and have kept in touch very well- trying to see each other at least once a year. They now both live in the DC area (I AM SO JEALOUS!)....but the reason I tell this story is that we have all been pregnant together, all having baby girls, AT THE SAME TIME! This wasn't some foolish pact that we made but of course now we talk about living in the same neighborhood and raising our kids together and opening our own daycare- didn't you guys have these talks with your bests buds growing up?
It has been really cool going through this experience together. Our stories are all very different and our pregnancies didn't look alike at all....But we will all have baby girls to swoon over by the end of Sept!
Sara had Cate on June 29th! A perfect little bundle of joy! I can't wait to meet her. NEED PICS OF HER.
Kelli will be having baby girl Carter around Sept. 7th and I will be having Finnegan Marie around Sept. 22nd....CRAZY- RIGHT! What are the chances, and the fact that we are all having girls. Can't wait for our next get-together.
Kelli and Joel came down for Finn's shower and we got to take some great belly shots...be warned, we do show bare bumps!

What a neat experience for you girls! I know you guys did not plan your pregnancies like this---as a matter of fact I don't think you could have planned it to work out as closely as it has. Congrats to all of you! Now, Meg, I want to see some pics of your bump every week till you deliver since your Mom and I aren't there in person!
