Sisterly Love

This adorable, sleepy baby is still causing a lot of excitement around here.  She is a very mellow little girl and doesn't cry much...unless she's wet or hungry.  Typical baby.  But we are loving every minute we spend with her.  Especially Sophie.  


Most of the time, she looks something like this: 
All thanks to Sophie's sticker obsession.  I'm pretty sure she uses stickers much like a dog uses its urine.  She is just marking her territory.  Letting us all know who she belongs too (weird metaphor...sorry).  

If Sophie is not covering her head to toe in stickers, you'll most likely find the two of them like this:  
Sophie insists on reading to Charlotte every chance she gets.  It's pretty cute.  And she wants Charlotte to be as close to her as possible without (or with) squishing her guts out. 


As you can see, this little baby doesn't get much alone time.  Sophie even manages to interrupt her otherwise peaceful 22 hour naps by climbing into her bouncer with her.  I catch her doing this ALL.THE.TIME.

And if Sophie is not bugging cuddling Charlotte, you can probably find her like this:

Or like this: 

What a hip little girl.  Just groovin' to some tunes. 

Sophie is seriously obsessed with Charlotte.  Every single morning, the first word that comes our of her mouth is, "bebe?"  Followed by frantic searching through the upstairs to figure out where said 'bebe' is.  She doesn't like it when Charlotte is out of her sight.  

Charlotte doesn't seem to mind all of the attention.  She gets a little tired of the constant touching and poking and kissing and hugging, but that's why second children are so laid back, right?  I would know. I'm one of them ;)
