Baby!!!

No… unfortunately not ours.  But last night we got to babysit baby Adelyn, our friend's 6-month old daughter.  The boys woke up yesterday and said, "Today's the baby day!!!"  They were beyond excited to have her here and so very gentle with her.

Adelyn didn't spend one second alone the entire time she was here...

How sweet.  Hard not to imagine them all
with a baby sister of their own to protect!

Could they get ANY closer to her???

Apparently so.  

Biggest brother James, trying to
remember the days when Pete was this tiny!

Henry wanted to do everything for Adeyln--
carry her, feed her, change her, give her toys.
He was just amazing!

Henry and Peter hardly let the other have a turn holding her.

It looks like Peter is about to take Adelyn back.

And now you see Henry creeping in on Pete's turn...

A protective Peter and an encroaching Henry... 

Oh!  Here's Henry.

Poor baby, the boys wouldn't let her play for a second without a protective hand…

Or hug...

Awwww….

The good news is that Henry and Peter finally fell asleep.  And so did she…

I think we wore her OUT and imagine she slept through the night for Christina last night!
