So many people have asked me how A. is reacting to be a big sister. She is actually doing fantastic. I haven't seen any jealousy, in fact, we use K. as bribery sometimes; if she doesn't get to go up to bed on time, K. can't come up to read a story. She hasn't regressed with toileting, eating, or dressing like I was told would be a good possibility. If anything, she has gotten more independent. For the past 2 days, she has gotten herself dressed for the day and for "nigh,night" time. She won't even let us in the room while she gets dressed because she wants to surprise us. It is a wonderful thing with only 2 downfalls...
1) it takes FOREVER and to rush her is to kill her.
2) she gets so excited when she gets everything on but she looks well, ridiculous. Today, her shirt was on backwards, her pants and shirt were no where close to matching, and her also nonmatching socks had the heels on top. I didn't want to squash her moment so, since we weren't going anywhere, she wore it all day.
Here she is in all her beauty!
yes, the shirt is not only too small, it was on backwards!
Jen (who does have a degree in fashion and makes her living off of it) thinks the outfit looks good. Just so you know... :-)
