We were sure we were having another boy, so I ordered these beautifully embroidered shirts from an etsy shop. They say Big and Middle Brother with the boys initial in blue. I need to order a baby sister onsie now!
The boys were so excited to get a gift from their baby sister. Everest wore his the first two days after she was born. We had to get it off of him to wash it, because he wants to wear it his first day of school on Wednesday.
Everest meeting Aurora for the first time.
He is a very proud big brother. He was quite protective of her, even from Leaf.
Leaf wasn't sure what to think of her at first.
Leaf loved that she was moving her legs around. He was tickling her toes.
Everest held Aurora for a while, he didn't want to give her up.
Everest can't wait to play with his sister and show her around. He wanted to take her to our room and show her where she would sleep and be changed. He also wanted to show her his room and all his toys.
Leaf really wanted to hold Aurora, but he still wasn't sure about her, when she would move around. As soon as he held her, he would say done, but as soon as someone picked her up, he would yell, "baby, I hold!".
Nonnie finally got her time with Aurora. Everest had to keep an eye on her to make sure she knew what to do.
Nonnie lovin up her first granddaughter. It has been good for all of us that my parents have the boys in the motor home at a campground. One of the first things my mom said was "I need to go shopping." She hasn't been able to do that yet. I am sure Aurora will be spoiled. Nathan and I are fine with her wearing the clothing we have (which was the boys), I don't think Aurora will care either.
There is a great article in Mothering Magazine about color. Did you know until 1940's pink was more for boys and blue was for girls. It has something to do with the Virgin Mary being depicted in blue and pink was a variation of red which was considered a masculine color.
