family snuggle time:
madeleine has had a bit of a rough time adjusting to her new life circumstances. she has been incredibly clingy and pretty fussy over the last week. i am trying my best to be understanding and patient. fortunately, diane doesn't require too much attention right, so i've been able to focus on madeleine as much as possible.
i was taking some pictures of diane while madeleine was sitting there and i didn't want madeleine to feel like diane was getting all of the attention, so i took a few of madeleine. they are indicative of how the week has gone. she looks exhausted because she is. she has not been sleeping well. i'm pretty sure that my newborn is supposed to be the one keeping me up at night, not my two-year old.
she has been doing better today and hopefully we are on the up and up.
fortunately, with as much as she has been having a hard time with diane's arrival, madeleine has not taken it out on diane at all. she is very sweet with her and loves "baby diane." she helps me take care of her as much as possible and loves to dote on her little sister. hopefully that behavior continues.

Cute pictures. :) It's been a rough transition for Isaac as well - so I understand. He was SUPER emotional that first 2 weeks... the last week has been much better though - so hopefully life is normalizing. Good luck! Your girls are beautiful.
At least Madeleine let you do her hair in these pictures.
It is fun to see comparison pictures of the two girls.
B-man woke up too when J came home from the hospital. But after a few weeks he learned to sleep through it, and he does. Through sleep training and all. Your girls sure are beautiful.
Best wishes with that duo. We need to hang out again soon. Diane is almost night and day different in appearance, to me at least... Cute!
