Let's start with Riley. One word to describe it? Obsessed.
And to finish off... a few of the new little guy all by himself. The ones below are the day he came home from the hospital, so 2 days old!
Everyone asks me what Riley and Jackson think about their new baby brother. Do they like him, are they jealous, do they not care about him, etc... Let's start with Riley. One word to describe it? Obsessed. Girl looooooves her baby brother. She wants to hold him all the time. If he's sleeping she wants to touch his head and check on him, and if he makes any noise she runs to him and shushes him and tells him it's okay. She sings to him in the car and if he starts to cry she talks to him and tries everything she can to calm him down. She calls him buddy boo boo and yells to me to come give him milk when he gets upset :) Riley sharing her "Riley Bear" with her new baby. Same bear she used to share with Jack when he was a newborn. Now Jackson... although he wasn't super excited about his new brother when he came to visit at the hospital, since we've been home he has been very interested in him! He wants to touch him and hold him and see him, and for the most part he's pretty gentle, although he definitely can be rough and needs some reminding to be calm and gentle with the new baby. But he does seem to like his brother and tells people about his baby brother and knows his name is Cole. Definitely don't have nearly as many pictures of Jackson and Cole together, that's for sure! There always has to be someone close by (VERY close by) when Jack is holding Cole because he will just decide he's all done and basically hop up, even if Cole is still on his lap. :) And to finish off... a few of the new little guy all by himself. The ones below are the day he came home from the hospital, so 2 days old! And then three days old... Overall we are adjusting to life with three! A few more tantrums, a bit more whining, but a whole lot more love too!
