MY BABY SISTER IS HERE!

Hi, everyone!

Guess what! I'M A BIG SISTER! My baby sister, Emma Claire, arrived on Sunday, November 7, at 1:18 p.m. She weighed 7 lbs. 10 oz. and was 20 1/2 inches long. She was just a little bit bigger than me when I was born (I weighed 7 lbs. 8 oz and I was 19 1/2 inches long). But I'm -still- the big sister!

Things are very busy these days with Emma, so it is not always easy to post new photos on the blog. But my mommy and daddy will try! Here are a few photos from the past few weeks.

Below is me meeting my baby sister for the first time at the hospital, on the day she was born:

Here I am showing her the toy that I picked out just for her:

Guess what?! Emma got ME a gift, too! It was a big sister/little sister doll set!

Giving Emma a kiss:
Holding Emma:
Say "cheese"!
She's so little!:
A few days later, mommy and Emma came home. And a few days after that, we decided to let Emma have a test run in the play yard. She liked it!

Shh! Emma's sleeping!! She sure does sleep a lot! Either that, or she's eating...or crying!:

I am a helpful big sister. One thing I love to help with is diaper changes. It's my job to give mommy or daddy a clean diaper for Emma. Here I am helping with this chore, wearing my Sushi Superhero costume (it's actually just a sushi bib):

(Oh, guess what--this weekend we put up Christmas decorations! I am wearing our Santa hat here...while Emma is very important in our household these days, so is Christmas!):

Here's myself and Emma at our friends' house on Thanksgiving:

I am proud to be a big sister!

  1. Congratulations, Madeleine! You look like you've got the big sister job down pat already. Tell your Mom and Dad that we are thrilled for them. Two girls is twice the fun. We should know!
