Ainsley has been amazing with Allie since she was born. Having been the center of attention for so long, I was a bit worried about how she was going to react to Allie taking some of that from her. Well, she has done so well! She loves to help with her and her favorite thing is hugs and kisses. I hear over and over all day "can I hug her?" It is very sweet. Don't get me wrong, she does get jealous every now and again, and will sometimes follow you around when you are carrying Allie, but she does not complain.
We have tried to make "special Mommy or Daddy time" for her where she is just with one of us and no sister. Every three weeks or so, we go and get a pedicure together, on Fridays she rides home in Daddy's car with just him, today Mommy gets to come to her class Thanksgiving party and Allie will stay with Daddy... all of these things really seem to help her feel like number one to us.
Here you can see her watching over her little sister. :)
