Pete & Repeat

My sweet Caitlyn absolutely ADORES her big sister! I know I've said this before, but she wants to be JUST like Madisen. And she does EVERYTHING Madisen does! If Madisen runs & jumps, so does Caitlyn. If Madisen dances to music, so does Caitlyn. If Madisen asks for a snack, so does Caitlyn. If Madisen puts on a dress-up, so does Caitlyn. If Madisen has a stroller, Caitlyn needs one, too.

Madisen is sweet enough to let Caitlyn be her shadow, most of the time. I only hope this will continue as they grow up. Of course we have our moments of tattle telling and disagreements over toys, but that's to be expected. It does my heart good to see them having fun & loving each other!

Some of Caitlyn's newest phrases- learned from Big Sister, of course:
*Mommy, monsters coming
*Watch this!
*No wike it- this is said as she's spitting out food that she doesn't want
*Buggy, gwoss
*M'on mommy- said while she takes my hand & drags me somewhere
*My turn
*Me too
*Not sharing
**If Madisen isn't in the room, Caitlyn asks, "Madisen go?"

Sisters are so cute! I'm a little jealous. I always wanted Meg to have a sister. I love that Caitlyn is talking so much. She is such a cutie, and getting so big!

I think it's fun too to see your kids show so much love for each other and play together so well. I only have seen a taste of it though. It's fun to hear the cute phrases that Caitlyn is saying, what a big girl she's becoming!

Oh, how fun. That's so precious. It makes me really excited for Ella to get older. Your girls are so precious!
