Ellie & Her Brother

Ellie has really stepped it up lately in the big sister department. She's clearly always loved her baby brother but she's never really been overly interested in him. Sometimes she would want to hold him and try to sooth him when he was sad. She'd be interested in where he was and never has asked for him to go away. But mostly they have just co-existed through the first 5 months of his life. Abby has played more the mother role with him.

Just recently they have become very interactive with each other. She gets down next to him and talks his talk, which makes him laugh, and in turn she laughs hysterically.

We've also noticed that both girls' try to get right next to him so he can reach out and grab them. Then they think he is tickling them and they laugh hysterically.

It is so fun to watch all 3 of them laugh together.
