Little mommy in practice

 I realize that with Elizabeth's pregnancy we spent so much time dreaming about what she would be like, what we would be like as parents, how our lives would change, and preparing ourselves for taking care of a new little person.  Not to mention actually actively changing our lives to prepare for her (crib, childbirth classes, new baby room, new jobs to support child, etc).
This pregnancy is vastly different because we view it now through her eyes.  How is she going to change with a sibling, is she excited and are we preparing her well enough for this new little person.  Well she is EXCITED.  She loves breast feeding her babies and you can often find a doll shoved under her shirt.  "My belly is getting biiiggg"  she will say.
She will grab my belly and tell the baby what ever might be happening at the moment "I'm all wet from the shower, can you smell my hair?"... "Can you see my new pretty dress!!".  She drags this breast feeding pillow throughout the house just in case her baby gets hungry.  She is fun!
