Our girls

It is SO fun having twins!!! We feel incredibly fortunate to have TWO precious blessings from God! Today was the first day we were on our own, as my mom headed back to Georgia after staying with us for two weeks. She was a big help and I didn't have to worry about a thing, just focus on taking care of our girls. Thanks Mom, you were a blessing to us!
But we are glad to be a family of four, and I am enjoying having Joel home with me, as this is his slow season with landscaping, so he is able to stick around most of the day to help me. The timing of all this really couldn't have been better, God knew exactly what we would need!
Everything is going pretty well... the girls are both happy babies and don't fuss much at all. Kennedy will let you know when she's unhappy though, and can go from zero to sixty crying when you are changing her diaper or she is hungry. Guess she'll be vocal and opinionated, and a strong woman - I can handle that! Natalie seems pretty content with anything and will wait patiently to eat while her sister is chowing down. Joel & I love the uniqueness of both girls and have fun figuring out their differences. They are both so very special and we love them more and more every day!
