Little mommy

A two year old will copy everything you do and say, and Lily Grace is no exception. She's been observing mommy feeding baby sister Emily for these past weeks, and this morning she announced that she was going to feed one of her baby dolls. She sat in mommy's chair, strapped on mommy's nursing pillow, and assumed a perfect feeding position with the doll. After we snapped the picture, Lily put the doll over her shoulder, patted her on the back to burp her, and switched her to the other side. Lily is going to make a good mommy some day...

Emily smiling

The "experts" say that newborns can start smiling at about 6 or 7 weeks or so, but Emily got a bit of a jump on that. Check out this lovely smile at 5 weeks and 5 days...
