BIG is an Understatement!

To say that the last 7 days have been BIG is really quite the understatement of the century. After MONTHS (that seemed like YEARS) of talking about a baby sister, one finally showed up!!! MY baby sister finally showed up. And I cannot tell you a lie, there have been some pretty big changes in the Douglas house!! They really haven't been bad, but we have been super busy.
I don't really think I fully understood what being a big sister was going to mean. I have been helping get diapers and wipes for my mommy and daddy. I've been singing songs to Myla when she is upset that my parents aren't getting her fed fast enough. I've been picking out what outfits she is going to wear for the day. I've been checking on her when she is sleeping in the living room and she makes a noise. I've been trying to get her to play with toys I pick out for her. I've been putting teething rings in the fridge to make them cold (I know she doesn't need them yet, but I'm getting them ready). I've been holding her. I've been just VERY BUSY!!!
Now on top of all of that, I've also just had my last day of school today AND I've been playing at the park and seeing baby chicks with my cousins (Levi and Evan), and spending time with lots of family!!!
I really love, love, love being a big sister and I really love, love, love Myla. This whole sister thing is just AMAZING and I can't wait to tell you even more about it! It has only been 7 days and I am already thinking long term about all the fun stuff I'm gonna show Myla when she gets a little older!!
