Sister Love

I will admit that before Kinley was here I was worried on how Presley was going to react with a new baby around. Presley wasn't a fan of me holding other babies, or even with me playing with other babies. She would literally scream and cry, "THAT"S MY MOMMY!!" anytime I held someone that wasn't her. When we found out we were pregnant with Kinley that was to say the least topic of conversation throughout my whole pregnancy.

When the day finally came and Kinley made her debut into this world, I couldn't wait for Presley to meet her. I wanted to see how she reacted to her. When I was pregnant with Kinley something I tried to do with Presley as much as possible, was to play with her baby dolls and pretend it was the real thing. I would show her how to hold the baby and that the baby was in my tummy. At the time I wasn't sure if she understood any of it, but I figured the results would show when the real test came and Kinley was here. I was nervous when Presley was walking up into the hospital room. Once she came into the room we introduced her to Kinley and Presley just knew this was "the baby" we had been talking about for so many months.

Now that everyone is home and healthy Presley really does love Kinley. She kisses and hugs her constantly and when Kinley cries she's the first to run to the crib and greet her. Don't get me wrong Presley has her days where she asks me "mommy, put baby in swing and lets play!" but that is to be expected. I think they will be very close once they start getting older and I will witness my fair share of fights that these two will have :)
