Baby Mama

My baby LOVES her baby...

She takes her along EVERYWHERE we go...to daycare, to Target, to birthday parties, camping, to the horse races...EVERYWHERE. She sleeps with her at nap time and bedtime, she wraps her up in dish towels, encourages her to sing songs along with her, pushes her around in her stroller, rocks her in her cradle and walks through the house kissing her head and cheeks just like I carried and kissed her when she was itty bitty. It is so fun to see this incredible, nurturing side of my sweet little two year old.

You may remember, we adopted this baby almost a year ago. If you were wondering, she still just goes by, Baby. It probably would have been easier if we gave her a name because, if you bring Emilia another baby to bed at night, she asks for "somethin' else's baby..." which means..."I want the other one..." which still only narrows it down a little as she now has 4 babies.

I think we're going to have to plan a little birthday party for her come September 12th :) I better start planning...it's going to need to be pretty special.

Love the quote - one of my all time favorites.
Addie is also obsessed with "baby" it is so adorable to watch - it makes me wonder where they learn the behavior, because they haven't watched us - maybe they just mimic what we do to them.

Maybe the baby could be named Frances - Baby's real name in Dirty Dancing. :)
