Big Kids Meet Little Brother

Leah was very excited to meet Otis. She is sweet and loves to give him kisses and is constantly saying "oh, he is sooo cuuute!" She will be a big help so long as she listens to what I need help with.

Mylo was so cute to watch when he walked in the room to meet HIS baby brother Otis. He wasn't sure how to act around him. He said that Oti is mom's, dad's and his and nobody else's. He is so soft as he holds him that he hardly puts his arms around him :) I think these two look a little alike. Mylo loves that his little brother and him have things in common already.

Milli was very happy to meet Otis and very excited to hold him. She gave him kisses on his cheek with out being asked to do it. She was soft and gentle and a little rambunctious at the same time. She had to be bribed to get her picture taken. She is already acting like she is not happy about the attention being taken a way from her.

It is always interesting to see how the other siblings react to the new one. What must they be thinking? Even if they are old enough, like Leah, to understand that from this point on he will always be there, it still must be exciting and confusing. I saw Mylo yesterday and today and he was so proud to say he had a little brother.

I love those pictures! It is so fun when the older kids meet their new sibling. I miss having a baby in the house. (not that I will do anything about that) :) I will just have to come hold him.

Those pictures are so cute! I love hearing about how each child reacted differently to meeting baby brother. I can't wait to see how my little men react to a baby girl in the family. It's going to be interesting. I'm glad all is well and you are starting the process of adjusting to life with a newborn. Otis really is a precious, darling little baby!

All the pictures are so cute, thanks for sharing about how each of them reacted to meeting baby Otis. I am so happy for you guys. I think he looks more like Mylo, he is a sweet mellow little boy. I am sure Leah and Milli are going to make great big sisters. What a great little adventure.

They all look so cute with their baby brother. He is so cute and sweet and tiny. Congratulations! I just read your labor story. You are a brave woman. I am all about the drugs.
