Life has slowly been getting back to normal for the Egbert family.
Molly is settling in, Haley is embracing life as a big sister, Dad is getting used to lack of sleep, Ally is learning how much work a newborn is (and how bad umbilical cords smell), and Mom is enjoying feeling a little more like her old self - love you Molly but Mom was a tad uncomfortable carrying you around the last weeks of pregnancy.
This week has been a lot of hustle and bustle. Doctors appointments, play dates with much missed friends (thank you Tai & Liz), and even a trip to the Children's Museum
made the week a little more exciting for Haley, and hopefully helped to curb some of the natural jealousy that comes with a new baby who consumes much of Mama's time.
Although Haley has had a few tinges of jealousy - "move baby!" - she is generally very excited by Molly - "more baby!" and enjoys holding her, giving her kisses and "cooking" Molly various treats in her play kitchen.
I think she will be a great big sister - she is always very concerned when Molly cries and often suggests that Momma give Molly milk. She also likes to try to share things with Molly like her apple or trying to get Molly to ride on her quad (Mom did not think that Molly was ready quite yet.) At least she wants to love and share with her baby sister :)
