Sisters!

Amelia and Ingrid are sure to have many sisterly adventures in the months and years to come - we were tickled that Amelia seems to have taken to the idea of a 'sister' very quickly. So quickly, in fact, that while visiting Nicole & Ingrid at the hospital, Amelia broke down in fat crocodile tears when the nurse came in to take Baby Ingrid to the nursery for a routine blood test. Issac and Nicole hope that she will continue to look out for her sister with such empathy and adoration. Below are a few photos from their initial introduction:


































Since we have been home, Amelia's interest in her sister has done nothing but grow. "Baby Inn-Gid?" is the first thing she asks for when waking up in the morning or getting up from a nap. When baby cries, Amelia delivers a command to Nicole -- "baby eat" or "change" or "hat on." Added to her list of frequent toddler requests is "Hold too?" (her request to hold her sister).

We will leave you with an early favorite of ours. The photo below is precious -- unprompted, Amelia decides that Ingrid needed a bedtime story:

Much love,
Issac, Nicole, Amelia & Ingrid
