I put her down on her tummy,  but by the time I came back with the camera she'd rolled over.

She is growing and growing. And eating and eating! At 3.5 weeks she decided she was going to start rolling from her tummy to her back. At first I thought it was a fluke and that she was just flinging herself off the pillow that comes with her tummy time ma. I took the pillow away and she was still flipping and has been every time I put her down for tummy time since.

Brenden is still enjoying being a big brother. Sometimes he isn’t very patient with me about giving him his play time and I hear “Mama play” over and over. One night this week he really surprised me by being very helpful. Patrick was working late and it was time to put Brenden to bed. Emily was up to eat and I had all the sheets and blankets pulled off Brenden’s bed after washing them. I put Emily down on a blanket on Brenden’s floor so I could make the bed. She didn’t like that and began to cry. Her bottle was right next to her and Brenden walked right over and started feeding her. I didn’t notice at first but then he said “I’m feeding Emily”. He’s tried to help with that a few more times, but he doesn’t like to hold the bottle for her for very long. He’s also really taken to calling her Em for short. “Where’s Em?” “Let’s go check on Em.”

    Your stories are the best … but even better when you include a picture of he little angels. Very sweet story of Brenden helping feed the baby. He has some nice parents to set the example and have the loving sweet hearts. You know I mean that! Thanks for sharing your little family with us.
