My girls are so sweet to each other, even though they're not even 8 months. I just have to gush for a minute, and I have too much to say for a facebook status, so I thought I'd share with all of you.
Avery tends to be the clingy one. She is the one always touching, poking, grabbing, scratching, bothering her sister. This week after having left both of them sitting upright, I looked over to find Amber's head in Avery's lap. She was kicking and trying to get up while Avery held her down by her EYES. Poor kid.
This morning I was giving Amber her bottle. Avery was whimpering on her little play quilt, presumably because her playmate was preoccupied. And Amber was giving me the hardest time for someone who loves her bottle so much. She kept pushing it away and leaning out of my lap. Finally in exasperation I put the bottle down and let Amber do what she wanted. She leaned forward against my legs, straining toward her sister. When she got Avery's attention, she gave her an award-winning Amber smile. Avery stopped sniffling and smiled back. Then she went back to her bottle.
This happened three times, until they got the chance to play together. So sweet. They really really love each other! Remind me of this the next time Avery is banging blocks on her Amber's head.
That, is too adorable for expression. Thanks for sharing.
