The little mother
Bridget is loving having a new baby in the house. She is so willing to help with Eigen. She is a sweet little mother figure, always wanting to hold her brother.
She loves to rock-a-bye with Eigen, she tried playing “crazy 8’s” with him, and dressing him up. She thinks it is funny and “tickles” when he tries to eat her arm. One day she said in a soft and sincere voice, “I wanted a baby sister, but it’s ok, I love Eigen.” Too precious.
Funny Bridget saying:
She loves kiwi’s, but she usually can’t remember what they are called, so she calls them “kili” or “bikini” 
“mom, can you peal this bikini?” Hahahaha
Love my helpers, they are great kids.
Do I look bigger to you?
Does Eigen look bigger? Is he growing? I have been wondering if he is getting enough to eat…no need to worry or even wonder…Eigen is growing. 2 week doctor visit: weight 8 lbs 7 oz (that is over 1/2 lb more than his birth weight) and height: 21 inches long.
Eigen is a mellow baby most of the time, but when he decides he is hungry he wants to eat NOW! He really was not pleased with the doctor checking him, he wanted to eat.
Most nights he is sleeping a 5 hour stretch, I hope he keeps up the trend. We are all healthy again. So thankful Eigen stayed healthy through everyone’s fevers, dry throats and other random illness over the last few weeks. We are blessed.
