This is harder than I thought!

This is the most recent picture of the girls. We had just gotten done eating dinner and Joy, of course, got green beans on her clothes. Jade loves Joy so much and, as much as she can, Joy loves Jade. Jade sings to Joy when she is sad or crying and Joy usually calms down sometimes even laughs. Joy is constantly watching her big sister. Anyway, I am not going to guarantee that I will keep up with this again, I just felt like doing it tonight. Having Joy so quickly after getting Jade is a lot harder than I imagined it would be. They both need so much attention and I still have to take care of some of the office management stuff for Matt's practice. I am so thankful for them, but I just had nothing left at the end of the day for the longest time. Now that Joy is sleeping through most of the night and Jade is getting back to normal (kind of ) in regards to her sleep, Matt and I are beginning to feel a little more rested.


This is Jade with a ladybug painted on her cheek. We went to the Arts Festival this weekend and I actually talked her into doing this! She was afraid at first, but once she let the girl do it and saw it on herself, she was so excited to show everyone! I think I may have to buy some face paint and do this everyday now!
