When I had my daughter Aubree I had a lot of help from my mom and husband plus I knew more about girls then boys well because I'm a girl! I didn't have wild toddler getting into anything while I try to feed a new baby, Brent worked from home with Aubree so I had a lot of help from him when she was born, my mom was just down the hallway if I had any questions about anything and well it was only her I needed to take care of. Needless to say having none of that made having a new baby more challenging. I have the experience of taking care of a new born a learned from raising my daughter. But raising both makes it hard. Aubree is a great helper though. She get Talon diapers and tries to comfort him when he cries. She a great big sister. But she does have her jealous throw a fit moments. We comfort her and understand that she is getting use to the idea of a new baby in the house. But she loves him. Today I put him in his play pin and Aubree didn't know where he went so she went looking for him. It was sweet. She still learning what okay and whats not okay to do around him and well still learning his name as well. She calls him "Honey" which is our dogs name. I think its funny. She will either call out "baby" or "honey" if she is looking or talking to him. She hasn't yet figured out his name is Talon even though we tell her over and over what his name is. But she is doing great and is taking it day by day. She gets her daddy bonding time and her mommy bonding time so she doesn't feel left out. She a happy big sister and I think she is enjoying having him around majority of the time. Just can't wait to see them grow together as sister and brother!
