The Proud Big Brother!

This last week Daniel has warmed up quite a bit to Brielle, when we first brought her home he wanted nothing to do with her, he would just push her away, and everytime she cried he would start crying or make faces, like get her out of here. But these last few days he has been a totally different little boy to her, he now loves to give her hugs and kisses and he's constantly trying to hold her hand, plus he has become the little helper in helping me feed her, he loves to help me hold her bottle. I don't think he still fully understands what is going on, but we talk to him about it everyday, and as each day goes by, he gets better and better with her. Plus I think some of his frustration comes from me being different with him, because of the c-section I haven't been able to lift him up, put him in his high chair, or even play with him the same way, due to me still being a little sore, and trying to heal. Its actually been really hard on me as well, I miss doing all those things for him, and can't wait till I can be myself again and be able to play and hang out with my little guy like we are use to. My recovery has been going well, its been a lot easier this time around compared to my first c-section, but I still find myself at the end of the day sore and tired, but then again it hasn't even been 2 weeks, but each day gets better for me. I just can't wait until I can lift and hold my little guy again!

He is such a cute big brother. Brielle is so cute I just want to snuggle her. When I see babies that small it makes me want another one.
