Adventures in Babysitting - Sweet on Baby Sloane

We had the privilege to sit for Sloane for a few hours on Friday.  I was excited to have this opportunity and looked at it as good practice for what a day in my life will be like in about 4 months!  Rowan remembered her and was so interested in being near her.  He was super gentle and helped me feed her a bottle, entertain her, and love on her.  When she started to cry he asked "why is she crying?"  I explained that sometimes babies cry if they're hungry or need new diapers and sometimes they just cry and don't have a reason.  He headed upstairs and when I asked where he was going, he said "to get her bear for her."  He'd seen it in a basket on her floor and just knew it would make her feel better!  I only hope he's half as attentive with Reese-although I'm not completely naive.  I know that it is inevitable that jealousy will rear its ugly head once the newness of the baby wears off.  That's when things should get interesting!
