Harper is three weeks old now and has been home for two weeks, and everything is going pretty well. Avery loves Harper. She puts blankets, bibs, burpies, and hats on her. She loves to give her kisses, tries to pick her up, and she likes to point to her body parts for me. Avery especially enjoys pointing out her toes. More alarmingly she tries to pick her up, and she has only flipped Harper over once. (Harper was quickly rescued. Hopefully Avery will understand her baby sister is fragile, but we're not holding our breath.)
The only one having the toughest time transitioning to the new baby is our silly cat Leela. Leela doesn't know you, but she desperately needs your love and affection. I have never had such a needy cat. She has been shut out from the bedroom at night since I didn't want to deal with a newborn and an overly needy cat. Maybe this whole experience will make her love Daryl more. I can only wish!
