The Big Sister

Kimbri is such a good big sister to Garrett! I mentioned this a little bit in my previous post but I finally uploaded some pictures of Kimbri with Garrett and wanted to post them. She loves to hold baby Garrett and always pats him on his head. She even will give him kisses and hugs. Often times she finds his binky that I try to hide under his blanket and tries to put it in his mouth, even when he is sleeping. 

Kimbri and dad came home from church and the first thing she wanted
to do was hold the "ba-ba" - baby. 

She always runs over to his bassinet to look in at Garrett.

Our two precious little kiddos.

She loves touching his head...

...and patting him on his tummy. 

Now I have to share a funny story about what happened at tummy time yesterday. Although Kimbri has adjusted pretty well to having another little person in the house, sometimes she gets a little bit jealous. I have no idea why tummy time made her jealous but it did. Garrett had been in his rocking bassinet next to where Kimbri and I had been playing together. I decided that it was time for Garrett to have tummy time since he was kind of starting to stir and it would be time for him to eat soon. So I took one of the blankets out of his bassinet and lay it on the floor and turned around to get Garrett when all of the sudden Kimbri burst into tears! She literally had alligator tears running down her face. Sometimes we have a little drama queen on our hands :) I quickly tried to make things better by laying one of her blankets down next to Garrett's so that she could also do tummy time. It took quite a few minutes before she calmed down and was alright with the idea of me giving Garrett some tummy time attention. 

This picture is from a different day when she was okay with Garrett having tummy time. She just walked right over to where he was and lay down next to him. 

Kimbri also likes to use Garrett's things... like his hat they gave him in the hospital. I was nursing Garrett on the bed and she found his hat and had put it on her own head before I even realized she had it. I of course thought it was pretty funny and had to take a quick picture before taking it off of her (the camera happened to be sitting right next to the bed on my night stand). It is now pretty stretched out. Oh well. 

And Kimbri also loves to get into Garrett's car seat and sit in it just for fun. Technically she still under the weight limit for this car seat, but now we refer to it as the baby car seat. However, I think she still even thinks of herself as a baby. Haha :)
