Saint Nicholas and Big Sister

Two years ago, Aunt Cindy and Uncle Toan gave Sophia an audio book. On each page, it recorded their voices as they read "Twas the Night Before Christmas."

She has a drawer full of books which she loves to cycle through each day.

This evening, during bed time she said to me and Simon ... I want Saint Nicholas!!!

Wow! It's cool she remembers the books.

As we flipped through the pages, she looked at each of us and smiled while Cindy and Toan read to us.

Then.. "Dr Suess!"

She likes to tell us which page to start on as well. Very particular these days!

It will be hard for me two juggle two kids. I'm really enjoying all the time I can have with Simon and our baby girl.

On a daily basis she makes us laugh, smile, and hearts melt. It makes everything else in life so secondary and not such a high priority or big deal to worry about.

My due date for minicoop2 is early December. I am most anxious about how my baby girl will handle an introduction of another baby. Part of it is guilt, since I won't be able to give her the undivided attention that she's been receiving. Part of it is me.. my fear and doubts ... How can I even love another baby as much as I love Sophia?

I know change will be hard for all of us, but we are excited and feel very very fortunate to be giving Sophia a baby brother.
