Sweet Ella. Only 18 months old and already a big sister. It's a role we weren't anticipating for her so soon, but I must say that she's done WAY better than expected. She hasn't shown any signs of jealousy during the past two weeks. Instead, she's very attentive to Sutton and is always "mothering" him. Because she's been waking up earlier than Grace, Travis brings her into our room each morning. She greets me and Sutton with a huge smile and can't wait to give kisses to both of us. Earlier this week, she even said, "Hi, Sutton!" When he cries, she tells him, "Shhh, Baby! It's okay!" She's constantly offering him her food and drinks. She searches for his paci and tries to put it in his mouth (it's really more of a shove, but she's getting better). She kisses his head at least 100 times a day. It's overwhelmingly cute and touching to see this side of her!
Here she is after dinner one night. She was finished and decided to pull up a stool and watch Sutton in his swing. When he started crying, she looked at us like, "What am I supposed to do now?" Grace even stepped in to try to calm him down. When that didn't work, the girls decided to love on each other. It's quite apparent that our baby boy has three mamas :)
