Dear Olivia,

You are such a good helper. You always want to help me with whatever I'm doing. You help with dishes and cooking and picking up toys. I love it! You get so excited when it's time to clean up. It's sorta hilarious! You sing the clean up song and willingly go to work. You always want to help carry Lincoln's car seat. 

I think you're finally starting to get jealous of Lincoln. Not to say you don't love him, because you do. You're actually obsessed with him. I can't set him down anywhere without you laying on him or trying to pick him up. The other day I caught you full on holding him while standing. You had pulled him off the couch. You were proud of yourself and I had a heart attack! 

But like I said with all the love does come some jealousy. I don't blame you newborns require a lot of attention. You get mad whenever I have to feed him and beg me to hold you. You actually beg me to hold you whenever I'm holding Lincoln. It's pretty rough and I have no idea how to handle it. I try holding you as much as possible but you don't want to be held unless I'm holding Lincoln. It's pretty rough to be honest. But we're getting through it!!

Love,

Mom
