Ready for baby?
January 03, 2008
If you're asking me then it is yes and no. Physically, I was ready for this kid to be born yesterday. On the other hand, we haven't actually done a whole lot in terms of preparing the house, buying baby gear and clothes, etc... So in that sense, not really.
Mia, on the other hand, has got the big sister role down pat. She loves her new baby doll that she got for Christmas. She wants to feed it and rock it to sleep and carries it around the house in it's bassinette all day. She has a pack of travel kleenex that she carries with her as wipes and a few washcloths that she will use to change her diaper. She keeps the bottle in her kitchen sink between feedings.
Yesterday we visited a friend with a 2 month old infant and Mia was fascinated. She was quite gentle with her and wanted to kiss her and pat her and when she coughed a little Mia was very worried and asked, "Are you ok? Are you sick? Oh it's ok." She excitedly related her adventures to Daddy later that evening. When asked if she liked the baby, Mia replied, "That baby made a lot of noise!"
