Sisters

 One of my biggest worries with having a baby was how Adelyn was going to react to the change.  The last few weeks of my pregnancy she was super clingy to me.  She didn't even want to go to Travis.  I was really concerned that she would hate the new baby and get really jealous!

I read all sorts of blogs and articles about introducing toddlers to newborns.  Many of them suggested having the newborn in the nursery when they arrive at the hospital and have the toddler go get them.  I wanted to do this so that I could spend a few minutes with Adelyn first.

Travis, Adelyn and my mom arrived at the hospital while they were doing rounds so the baby was in my room.  As Adelyn walked in, she had a really serious look.  I excitedly said hi and all she kept saying was baby while looking around.  I was sad that she didn't even care about seeing me.  She found Lila and got super excited!

Travis handed her over to me and put Adelyn up on the bed.  She was a little timid at first but was really intrigued.  She would gently touch her and say baby.

I asked if she wanted to hold her and she did, but only for a second.  I love how she is looking at me in this picture!

 She was so proud of herself and loved seeing her baby sister!

 Gigi(my mom) finally got a turn holding Lila.

 Adelyn loves to hug and kiss Lila.  She is the sweetest sister!  She has really proved me wrong in my worries. 

I already know that they are going to be the best of friends!

Welcome to the family Lila!
