I'm a Big Sister!!!

My baby brother Liam is finally here!  

Isn't he so cute?!

For the last few weeks (ever since my baby cousin James was born), I kept asking my mommy every time we went to the doctor if she was going to help get baby Liam out now.  Mommy just kept saying "Not yet, but soon."  I was starting to think it was never going to happen, but then last Monday, it did!  I went to bed on Sunday night at home with Mommy and Daddy, but when I woke up on Monday morning, they were gone and Papa was here.  I was so excited to see Papa that I didn't even ask him where Mommy and Daddy were.  I guess they had to go to the hospital while I was sleeping because Liam was ready to come out.  Papa took me to school, and while I was there, Baby Liam was born!  Nana picked me up and told me he was here, and we were going to the hospital to meet him.  I was so excited!  I got a special big sister sticker when we checked in, and then we went in to Mommy and Liam's room to meet him.  I got to hold him all by myself, and he was heavier than I thought!  He weighed 8 lbs 8 oz (which is half a pound more than me when I was born!), and was 20 inches long.

Holding him all by myself

He was heavy, so I decided I'd rather have some help from Nana.

Guess what?  He pooped on her!

All of the rest of Mommy's family came to the hospital to meet him, too.  Mommy & Liam had to stay there for a couple of days, and Daddy stayed with them, so I stayed at Nana & Papa's house.  I got to go back to visit every day, though, and now we're all back at home together!

Everybody says these 2 are going to be trouble!

Uncle Chris still needs some practice, but he's getting better!

I just love his little face!

I especially love when he smiles in his sleep

I love being a big sister!

Now that we're all home, I've gotten more practice holding him and playing with him, and I can hold him all by myself now with Mommy & Daddy close by.  I love to read him books and give him his binky.  I can't wait until he and my cousin James get bigger, and I can teach them all kinds of fun stuff!
