Yeah, I don't want to underestimate the dad thing, or how little prep time we had (aka none.) I was just telling a friend IRL how I still can't believe I have a baby.
I do already forget she's adoptive. She's got our son's nose, my husband's asymmetrical nose. Our son's toes. I'm constantly comparing the two little ones because they are so alike. She does look like we made her.
She's totally bonded to us. When a friend was holding her, she was too busy looking at our son to give the friend any attention. She makes really great eye contact.
She is just as easy, if not easier, than our son was (once again, yeah for attachment parenting.) Having 2 is no big deal. Our son easily adjusted to this whole thing. He's even accepted me limiting him to one "milkie" so she has access to a side he hasn't drained.
I want to share a way cute story. I was holding her and he and I were sharing a bowl of oatmeal. He wanted to feed me. He put his hand under the spoon so none would fall on the baby. What a great kid!
