Our crazy household...

Tonight while I was doing up the dinner dishes, I had the girls in their bouncer seates in the kitchen. They were babbling away, and I would keep turning around from the sink to talk to them. We were having a good time, but they grew tired of it all and I had to quickly finish up so that they could have their baths and get ready for bed. This afternoon Josslyn slept for two hours, while Brielle slept for four! Amazing. I think that the time change may have unsettled them a little. We've been up several times in the night with each of the three children, and we're feeling pretty tired.
I so wanted to get a good picture of the three children together, but alas, it's like nailing Jello to the wall. One would look at me, Jordan would jump up and leave and the other would look away. Finally my wonderful husband stepped in and made Jordan sit down. But it was hard to get the girls to look at the camera at the same time...oh well, their normal kids! Josslyn is wearing the brown onsie with the pink polk-a-dots while Brielle is wearing the pink onsie with the brown polk-a-dots. Brielle has the sweet gold bracelet on her arm.

We went for a long walk today and the girls seemed to enjoy it. Our dog sure did. He hardly ever gets out of the yard these days, so he was very eager the whole time. Jordan is now in day care everyday and seems to be doing very well. It's so much easier for me to handle just the babies during the day. He was very bored being at home, with no other kids to play with and just me to entertain him.
