Siblings & Huck's First Month ...

 A long overdue snapshot of Huck's first month as a little brother ...

Welcoming Huck home ...  














 

 Della sharing her toys and reading to Huck ... 

Sleeping babies ... 

 Della had no interest in pacifiers until we tried offering them to Huck ... 

You'd think she was looking lovingly upon her brother ... 
Nope ... it's her favorite TV show. 

Della fit on my lap for several months ... I don't think Huck will make it to 3 months.

  Tired mama

Belly time ... 
He's been able to lift his head since birth!
What our life bed looks like on a daily basis.

 Huck found his thumb!
Della wondering what all the fuss in about.
 
 Cheeze!

Multi-tasking daddy

 Sharing her birthday toys!

Sisterly Love ... 

Della has adjusted amazingly well to the sudden appearance of Huck. She asks to see him upon waking in the morning and asks if Huck's OK when she hears him cry. She say's "goodbye Huck" when leaving and kisses him goodnight. Often she'll unexpectedly attempt to share some toy or snack with him.  So far, we've been able to deter her interest in carrying Huck by offering to let her hold him (from a sitting position). With lots of love, patience, and distraction, we can hopefully ward off any sibling jealousy and these two will become fast friends for life. 

I'm a mommy through and through but there are moments when it still catches me by surprise ... 
I'm a mother of two perfect babe's!
 Life really does sneak up on you ...
