After we brought Reagan home Kami handled it so well that I didn't bother with getting her a doll. However, she adopted a new baby of her own, and I introduce to you, Baby Monkey. And yeah, Kami chose that name.
When Kameryn wakes up, the first thing she wants to know is where her Baby Monkey is. She carries him around, changes his diaper, lets us know when he's crying, feeds him a bottle and, as weird as it sounds, pretends to breastfeed him. She says, "Look Mommy! Two babies!" And then she will point out that I've got MY baby,
And she has her baby.
I'm actually really proud of her for finding a way to deal with what's going on. And, as a bonus for me, I use Baby Monkey to help me get Kameryn dressed, saying I'll dress her after Kameryn puts her clothes on. So really, everybody wins!

Nice! Kami is as smart as her mom and dad! I look forward to meeting your two little ladies. Could you e-mail me your phone number? I really need to stop by and visit you when I am in Bountiful...in fact, I am coming this weekend! Let me know
Kami rocks. Reagan rocks. You rock. Jay rocks. Baby monkey even rocks. PS--baby monkey totally matches something I got for Kami for Christmas. Weird.
Dude, I can't even begin to describe how much it sucks that you are so far away. I'm glad we have 'the technology' though. Put more pictures of your two babies up!
I love how kids are able to listen and know intuitively what they need. Not to mention, absolutely adorable.
Allie....you have already begun Christmas shopping?!?
So cute! I love your girls, Kjerst. I think that Kami is really handeling it all really well.
Of course she is! I love Baby Monkey and can't wait to see you again. :) And I second Abby, more pictures! Reagan is already getting bigger!
