Essie and Alexander

When I was looking through pictures trying to organize them into posts, I realized that I didn't have any pictures of Estella with Alexander. I felt bad about it, but then realized that the reason is I have to be right next to her, helping her hold him. I don't have the freedom to run and grab the camera, or even step back very far to snap some pictures. She does love her new little brother and wants to hold him whenever I will let her. She is learning to be gentle and is still experimenting with those limits. She does the same things Thomas and Nicholas did when they were her age...sticking fingers in his eyes and mouth, putting her feet on his head, wanting to jump over him when he is laying on the ground. Someone has to make sure the baby gets toughened up :)
