Abbie's New Baby and Stroller

Yesterday afternoon, Abbie and I went to Toys R Us to get her a present for her half birthday and for being so good at the doctor. Actually, I have just been wanting to get her a little baby and stroller for a while and those sounded like good reasons to tell Daddy! We found a little Cabbage Patch Newborn baby boy doll so that she can practice before her real little brother arrives. I figured she would love the stroller because she is always wanting to push hers when we are out. She LOVES them both! She has been pushing the stroller around non-stop for the past two days. Yesterday afternoon she walked around the whole house pushing the stroller and collecting things to put in it as she went. It ended up having all sorts of toys, her milk, her hair bows, a receipt, etc. in it! She has been kissing and hugging the baby. Unfortunately, she has also been picking it up by the hair and throwing it at Bailey and hitting her on the back! We still have a lot of work to do on how to care for a baby! Here are some pictures of her with her new toys. You can really tell how excited she is about them. It is so cute!

Good thinking about what to tell Stephen! I'm sure she'll love her little brother but will sometimes be tempted to pull his hair, also. Ahh, siblings. love, Nana
