The big brother thing is precious, but he has definitely been clingy lately. I'm glad to know that isn't unusual. My husband fights fire, and this summer has been very busy so we have been without him for most of the last 2 months. When one kiddo is being a barnacle, the other is crying, and I'm sleep-deprived, I just have to laugh at the madness and mess that is my life and give them a few extra squeezes. Your Janey is precious and beautiful, and I LOVE her name!Amy.Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15294040001838941516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-30359301372382161112012-09-10T15:27:52.584-04:002012-09-10T15:27:52.584-04:00Patrick is just so darling.

That is the purest love--when the older child shares one of their dear little possesions with the baby. As for him following you around the house, well, ALL my children were born clingy, so until they became bookworms (age 7 or so) they would be two steps behind me in the house. I mostly love it, but sometimes I want to runout the door to find a space all to myself.Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12484231863085751994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-5604572496190137172012-09-09T20:44:18.618-04:002012-09-09T20:44:18.618-04:00I am with Christianne!

She yells mom if I'm not right beside her. Hopefully they feel more secure soon : ). I'm sure it's a huge adjustment for them. My daughter has the same little outfit : ). So sweet, she wore it today.

Made me so happy to see the birds chirping right outside, like they were talking to my babies :) I will admit to you though that having a big snake ( or any snake for that matter) freaks me out to no end with a baby in your house.... Not that I know you at all in real life but I never in a million years would of thought you'd be ok with that :) anyhoo, glad things are all rolling along well with you and yours!

He just turned 3 so I thinks it's been hard to have someone steal his thunder. We've had quite a few talks over the last few days :o( He was great with her when she was first born, but now that she's clowning around and doing things to make us laugh, I think he's noticing that he's got a little competition in the cute department. This too shall pass though, lol.<br />Julie F.https://www.blogger.com/profile/03476667100093931875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2331752969086770281.post-83472259697124272492012-09-07T10:22:29.348-04:002012-09-07T10:22:29.348-04:00I still can't get over how much she and Patric...I still can't get over how much she and Patrick look alike.<br />I predict that Janey and Patrick will become best buddies.

"New normal" I've used those words so many times....Sometimes I think that with kids - not sure if it's the number - 2, 4, 6 - that normal is always changing. Yet I crave order and routine....I know I went through an adjustment during those teen years because normal was changing so rapidly. I hope that Patrick's transition to preschool goes smoothly and that you can have a little respite with everyone in school.Maiden Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09714005634771057441noreply@blogger.com
