Grace adjusting....day four.

One of the biggest worries I've had is how my baby would react to the new baby.  Well...here are some notables....

At hospital:

"My sister came out to see me!"   Before we even told her it was a girl. 

"Mommy belly all gone. My belly all gone too!"

"Hold her!"

First week at home:

"I sit in stroller. Not Evie"

Wants to witness every diaper change and feeding. 

Wants to put her "in bowl."

Refuses to let grAndma take her home. "Evie stay here with me."

Wants to rock her. 

Is actually NOT possessive over me.  We will see if this changes as grandma is gone, etc....

As for me....having two kids is much harder than I thought.  Getting ten minutes away is like heaven. I've been feeding a baby while eating dinner, getting Grace dressed, and putting away dishes. I've also, however, savored the night feelings a bit more and hate putting her down if I don't have to.
