As of yesterday, Beatrice is officially a week old! She has been home for 5 full days now and we are all adjusting to our new life as a family of 4 well. Elliot has been such a wonderful big brother and is very curious about his little sister. He was so excited when he came home last Thursday. The first thing he did when he saw that Beatrice was with me was run into his room and get one of his old pacifiers. He was beaming with pride when he came back into the room with the pacifier. He promptly threw it at me and said, "this is for baby sister!" He also gave her a pair of pink slippers that he picked out for her (without any prompting or assistance) while shopping with Mimsey. Elliot is getting more used to Beatrice's presence every day and has taken on the role of Mommy's diaper changing helper with great enthusiasm.
Mimsey left on Sunday night. Having her here was such a help. Elliot asks me every day when Mimsey and Gramps are going to visit again. Elliot's Grammy and Papa arrive tomorrow and we are very excited to have them visit.
