A New Mother In The Making!

(Yes, she put her baby in the cradle and changing table all by herself)
Abbey loves her babies. She now has three that she takes care of. Each is important to her, and often she can't sleep unless one of her babies is in her crib with her. It is fun to see how this little two year old girl already has that natural mothering instinct. Not only does she love her baby dolls, but she loves real babies too. Her cousin Luke is one of them. She love to give him his bottles and cover him with blankets. She knows that mommy has a baby in her tummy too. And she recognizes that the blanket I made for Michael is the "baby's." She loves to go into the semi set up baby room and point out all the baby things. It will be interesting to see how she deals with a little brother very shortly!! I have a feeling she will be overly helpful and possibly bossy to the little guy!

She will be a great big sister... a little bossy, but great : )

I am excited for your new little boy to be around! Abbey is too cute, she and Parker could probably play babies all day. :)

How do they figure that stuff out so fast? I don't think Bode has even ever had interest in a baby. Trucks on the other hand...
I bet she will love having a real baby in the house.
