Soon our daughter will become a big sister. We are looking forward to the interactions between our two children. I have so many memories of my siblings growing up and I hope our daughter makes many memories with her sibling too.
Here are some things I want to write down so I won’t forget this time:
* You ask a lot of questions. Some of them are: What can the baby play with? Can the baby eat that? Is the baby out of your belly yet? Does the baby have legs?
* You are excited to become a big sister. You tell me this little one is my belly is a girl, but we don’t won’t know until the day he or she is born. I know you will love him or her no matter what gender he or she is.
* You like to look at all of your baby toys and baby clothes. You ask questions like: Who did I meet when I wore that? Did I play with that?
* You enjoy kissing my belly and giving the baby hugs.
* You tell people, ”That’s the baby’s bottom.” You say it so seriously too. Very adorable!
* You happily moved into your new room and now call the crib the baby’s bed. You transitioned very well! Thank you!!!
* You say things like, “The baby pooped in your belly,” or “The baby peed in your belly.” Then you will laugh or smile.
I will really miss this precious time with you. I am trying to soak you in before this new family member arrives. I hope we don’t lose each other in all the chaos and I hope you always know and feel how much you are loved! We love you dearly!!!
