"I wanna hold 'im!"


The biggest problem we've had so far with Callia adjusting to not being the only child is that she constantly wants to hold "her" baby. If I say "Sweetie, he is not your baby, he is Mommy and Daddy's baby, and you're Mommy and Daddy's little girl, and Thaddeus is your brother", she says "but I want to pretend he is my baby". There have been countless confrontations where she throws a fit and whines and begs because she wants to hold him NOW. It doesn't seem to matter if she has just held him five minutes ago! The main reason this is a problem is that he doesn't seem to like the way she holds him...he normally starts crying within a minute. They are doing pretty good here in this picture, though. And it is cute.
