big sister love








oh... the bonds are already forming... i love it. of course it's hard not loving a sweet little newborn baby that comes into your life, especially when your four and a half. whenever this big girl comes home from school she says "mom, i wanna see the baby. i really miss her!" and my heart just melts. then there's lots of wanting to hold ollie and that one little incident where she picked her up when she was just a few days old a carried her out to me (yes, my heart stopped too). the amazing thing was she was carrying her perfectly, supporting her head and everything. of course i still gave her quite the talk... just in case. now it's "but i want to hold her standing up" so i let her hold her standing up... right next to me with my hands underneath for just a little extra support. i think this one will be quite the little helper and is finally getting old enough to actually be helpful. sigh. it really does go fast, dosen't it...
