The Greatest Big Brother

I really have to take a moment to brag about how amazing Max is with Lia. I was so worried that he was going to be uber jealous and hard to deal with when it came to her. But he is just the opposite. He is so kind to her, loving, worried about her all the time. The moment he hears her cry he lets me know and runs over and gives her a paci or a blanket or a toy he thinks might make her happy. Sometimes he even shares his own beloved wrappie with her if she's really sad. He hugs her and holds her and is gentle with her. He's protective and proud of her, too. He tells everyone that he "has a baby sister and she's sooo cute!"

Tonight was one of the cutest things ever. I was giving Lia her bath before I put her to bed and Max came in and started playing with her. She took one look at him and just cracked up! I'd never heard her laugh like this before. It made me melt. This video is the end part of it. But she was laughing so hard.





These two are going to be great friends, I can feel it. I see their connection and their bond already forming and it's amazing. Having two kids is hard, really hard. But watching them grow and learn together and grow close with each other makes it worth it. We have great kids!! And Amelia is one lucky girl to have a brother like Max.
