Emma has been dying to give Olive a bottle! She'll run over to the freezer and pull out the milk, begging to do it. Finally, when Grandma Patterson was here, Emma got her chance. First, El's mom offered to watch Olive so we could have some desperately needed one on one time with Emma. So we took Emma to see Happy Feet 2 (she loves her sister but was thrilled to have us to herself!). When we got home Olive still hadn't eaten yet - perfect opportunity for Emma! You can see the proud look and elated smile she has on her face. We are so proud of Emma! She has been so sweet, and often says "I love being a big sister!"
Now, this doesn't mean she doesn't have her moments when she is mad at me!! But, we are getting there and continuing to all work on our new family of four!
We had the first snowfall a couple of weeks ago. The picture is Emma outside at 8am because she just couldn't wait!
Old Tom - he's found a new favorite place to sleep!!!

Emma is so precious--I see so much wonderful growth in her--it was so wonderful to watch her utter joy at feeding her little sis for the first time and what a great job she did. It was a joy to my heart
