Brotherly Love...

Gage LOVES his sister. Loves her. He wants to hold her every day. He wants to pick out her clothes sometimes. He has preferences about which hair bow she wears. He will feed her a bottle. He will burp her. He has even changed a diaper! (GASP!) Yes....this little boy of mine has become the BEST brother. He's a natural at it.

....and this? THIS melts my heart:

For her first Tummy Time adventure, that's what Gage said... "I'll do it with her so she doesn't have to do it by herself." What a SWEET and kind spirit!

...then another day....I was TRYING to finally do something with my hair. (The mom of a new baby has little time to blowdry and straighten hair!) I came out of the bathroom, and the baby was NOT where I left her! She was with Brother on the couch...

He took her out of the swing, put her in the boppy. Covered her with a blanket...and just took care of her while he watched TV.

He will do whatever it takes to make her smile. Sometimes he's a bit tooooo in her face, meaning he's so close that nobody could focus on his silly faces....but other than that, he's just the best at entertaining his sister. 

He's a great big brother...and he's going to be an amazing father some day...

...all of this from the same little boy in THIS video from 2010... (This is the "I Hate Babies" Video! It's a must-see!!!!)
