Big Sister

Many people ask how Lizzie likes being an older sister. Well, let me just say that I feel blessed that she has taken it so well. I really think that she loves it. She is such a helper and such a good 'little mommy'. She is always loving on him and seems to know what 'be gentle' means. She plays with him and so far has not hurt him in any way. I am sure that there will be a day when she sits on him or throws something at him...but so far, so good. Every chance that she gets she wants to hold him. On a daily basis I try to let her sit with him or lay with him so that they can bond! She is all smiles and she has even learned that when she talks to him that he smiles at her. They are truely cute together.

Lizzie now carries a baby doll around with her everywhere. Sometimes it is Abby and sometimes Pooh, or even Barbie. She puts them in strollers, highchairs, swings and even in their baby beds. It is precious to watch her mimic what I do with Wesley. She has even started nursing her baby dolls which is the funniest thing ever. First she started by just laying the dolls in her lap, but it only took a few days before she was raising up her shirt! Haha.

I really think that Lizzie loves having a little brother. We will see what she thinks of him in a few months when he is chasing her around.
