"He Spit Up"

People often ask how Abbey is doing with her new little brother. When we were at Dylan’s one month appointment (also Abbey’s two year appointment), Abbey told their doctor that, “He cries and spits up a lot.” I like to think that we have come a long way since then. Between the Zantac and getting to know his likes and dislikes, we are finally getting into a groove. Unfortunately, the nighttime groove is taking a little longer, but we are still light years away from those early days of extreme fussiness. She is starting to get a kick out of him, and is even concerned when he cries now. It’s sugary sweet to see her give him a stuffed animal or blanket when he cries, and that makes up for it a little when she tries to push him off his bouncy seat or climb on top of him like a stepstool. As far as he is concerned, she is the most fascinating person on earth; he smiles at her all the time and coos at her when she sits by him.

Of course, some things never change…

Doesn't she have the silliest expressions?
