This is the only time Myles has held Camellia. It won't be happening again anytime soon, don't want him to get any ideas. Little cute Myles with big cheeks, long eye lashes, and endless whinnying. Now 6 weeks after Camellia's arrival, Myles has learned how to be soft. Before he would give her a snot kiss then a love bite and maybe a smack on the head and run away immediately taking her pacifier with him smiling all the way. It is when I would say "no, no, no," with frustration that he would end with the hit and run. Now when he gets near her, we both stay calm and he will give her a kiss on the head and usually point out her nose. So glad his runny nose is currently gone.
Rhett was all about holding Camellia at the hospital and when she first came home. Now he doesn't hold her too much. If he does I stay right next to him to help put her back in her seat or wherever she is going. He is a great helper when it comes to rocking her chair when she starts to cry. Rhett is a super sweet boy and will say how cute Camellia looks.
At the hospital Caramel was too interested in the doctor and the whole process of how this baby magically appeared to sit and actually hold her new sister.
Later at home I showed Caramel pictures of herself wearing the same clothes Camellia was wearing. Caramel enjoys Camellia and is looking forward to sharing a room with her (which is the current plan but things always change). When Caramel had spring break off school, it was wonderful having her around to hold Camellia. Caramel does claim that Camellia's nickname is Sally. Caramel even wrote Sally on the driveway in chalk when listing members of the family.
Outside when I was trying to do some yard work, Caramel picked a flower. I asked her what kind of flower she thought it was. "A rose." No, it was a camellia. Later when I came inside the camellia flower was next to Camellia's head in her rocking chair. So cute.
