People often ask me if Olivia is a good big sister and if there are any jealousy issues. The biggest problem we've had (aside from the "stroller incident" when Addie was first born) is when Olivia wants the toy that Addison is playing with. She has learned to either wait her turn or to get another toy to offer Addie so maybe she'll let Liv play with the toy. Both have worked pretty well.
I have to tell you what happened this moring. It explains perfectly how much Olivia loves her little sister........
Today, Billy was holding Addison. She started to squirm and ended up hitting her face on his collar bone. I don't know if she hit her nose or her forehead but what ever it was, she really cried -- tears and all. I took her from Billy hoping to be able to make her feel better (Mommy always makes it better, right??). Olivia went into the other room and got a toy for Addie to play with. She picked a musical flower toy - when you push on one of the pedals, it plays either a note or a part of a song, depending on the setting. It was so sweet!! She was trying to make her sister feel better.....and it worked.
