Aren't they all? *lol*

May I introduce you to Sofie, about 19 hours old and sleeping like a baby:



Her big sister sat staring wonderingly at her yesterday, and the following conversation took place:

Dad: - Do you like your little sister?
Big sister: - Oh, yes, very much!
Dad: - Imagine, she's been living in mummy's tummy!
Big sister: - But, daddy, mummy's tummy was so very big, and Sofie is so small! What ever happened here, did she shrink in the wash or something?

Oh, she is a beauty...let the spoiling begin!!!!

How old is big sister? Isn't it just a wonder what's going on in their minds. You can almost hear the wheels turning as they process new information and then the questions they come up with.

Thank you! Big sister is six, and I've had many hard laughs at her musings about the world. Our own young ones are getting a bit too big for the spontaneous kid's exclamations. I do miss those.

Oh Sofie is absolutely gorgeous Droopy and she has such long hair!! I have a feeling she is going to wrap everyone around her little finger. One smile from her and I know my heart would simply melt.

Oh lord Droopy.. I laughed so hard that tears came to my eyes...and I almost fell out of my chair at that conversation. What a gem!
You ought to save that.

That Sofie is pretty, isn't she? Not many newborns that young are, in my experience.

But just look at all that hair--enough to tie a bow in. Just amazing.

I know that you are tickled pink.

You are so lucky Droopy. She's very beautiful. I love the conversation with big sis, that's a moment for sure. Sounds like something my 4 year old DD would say. She's a very lucky girl that Sofie to have a wonderful grandma like you!

She's a beautiful baby, droopy. I think my grandchildren forget who we are between visits. They all live so far away. I do enjoy other people's grandchildren though. Post more pictures, please. dooley

Thank you all for rejoicing with me! They will be home tomorrow, and they live only five minutes away by car. I know I'm lucky, and enjoy the feeling.

Lots of grandparents are like you dooley. It's sad, but that's how the world has become.
