The most

Two days ago dad had you both on his lap- a ritual at nighttime. He asked L, " who loves you the most?" pause... A then says as clear as day "I do".

You speak in little sentances now and I love that we can communicate.

Yep!

Today I watched you a lot. I wanted to take it all in. All you've Learned, all you say, how you interact- and I want to document the little things I loved. There are millions I'll have you know, And I can't list them all. Know also that I sat aside with a smile and a heart bursting with love.
* A went and got both dollies and took one of them to L, saying " here you go l"
* L says "yep" when I ask her things.
* A came up to baby E and let her face rest next to E's hand so she could feel it hit her face gently. A got so excited and smiled that sweet smile that she only does when she is interacting with baby E
* L and A bring over any blanket in site to put on baby E
* L looks at me and says "bye" as she strolls her dolly into the next room.
* L is patient while I give A a turn at a 1,2,3 flip!
* A says "she's so cute" referring to baby E. something I say all the time

one..two..three!

Lately the girls will get a sudden urge to tackle her sister.  It is hillarious to me, and usually funny to the two of them.  They wrestle around for a while and laugh and giggle.  I love that you are such good little buddies, and have such a special bond. 
We are awaiting your baby sister, and I have a feeling the three of you are going to be best friends.  Hooray for sisters!!!
