Brother and sister

A lot of people have been asking how Deven has been handling the transition from only child to having to have Tova around 24/7. I can honestly say, he LOVES Tova.  So much so that we have to remind him that she isn't has old as him and can't walk, eat solid food, or play in the mud with him.  We need to remind him not to squeeze her too tight when he hugs and not to smoosh her face when he gives her kisses.  The transition is going great specifically with Tova.
The challenge seems to be in that Deven has begun a new round of tests to see what we will let him get away with now that baby sister is here.  I'm not sure if this is merely because he is almost three, because there is a new dynamic in the house or more likely a little bit of both!  Regardless we are trying hard to hold strong to our routine at least.  So far so good, just a little bit more tired momma and daddo to make it happen.  Cross your fingers.

Bath time

Expect a lot of 'first' blogs for a while. This one is for Tova's first bath! Her cord fell off last night so we thought it would be fun to give her a bath tonight. Deven is an excellent big brother and was a big help!
