Our Girls

I was fortunate enough to capture a beautiful but rare moment on film last week. My two little girls cuddling on the couch.
Big sister's still doing well adjusting to her big sister status. That's not to say she doesn't have her not-so-excited-about-this-baby moments...she's asked the baby to stop crying, asked me if the baby can go back in my tummy, etc.
I think the baby has developed some colic. She has episodes of crying for seemingly no reason almost daily (okay, nightly--usually between 5 & 10pm). Our oldest was like that, too, when she was a baby. Thankfully, we've been reassured this will only last a couple of months. We can get through this.
I'm learning to be mommy to TWO children. It's tough! I'm thankful for preschool and gymnastics. Without those things to keep our oldest busy I think we'd all be going out of our minds!
I thank God daily for the luxury of living so close to our parents...and for D's new position at work, which allows him to be home more often. Although these last couple of weeks have been a little rough, in the end I know we are so incredibly blessed.
We'd still appreciate prayer about the whole possible colic thing, though...
