Introducing Avery

Wow has life changed! Our kids are half grown, Ally is 10 and Dylan is 8 now and we decide, what the hell, lets start over and have a baby! It is much easier this time around. I don't think the baby is any different than her older siblings, but I think I am 10 years older and used to not sleeping, and more mellow in my old age.
I also have one perk I didn't have a decade ago, a live in nanny! Ally has decided that Avery is her baby too. She loves to change her diapers, hold her, change her clothes, bring diapers and coo at her. Dylan, well, he is a wild boy, so he provides for more entertainment for the baby than anything. But Ally, she should be on the payroll. If only I weren't breastfeeding, i am pretty sure Ally would raise her herself. I hope these two sisters have a lifelong bond. If only Avery knew how much Ally adores her. In time I am sure she will.
