Maddie loves her baby sister. In fact, we often have to be on smother alert because there is sometimes an excess of sisterly love. Now that Gracie can roll, that's about all she wants to do once we put her on the ground - and she covers a lot of ground using all that tummy momentum. Well, our two girls are often inseparable, as is evidenced by the above video clip. We at least appreciate that Maddie is such a good sport about having clumps of hair yanked from her scalp and having her face thoroughly slobbered and gummed. After all, Gracie is in a stage where she perceives the rest of us to be her giant servants; on-call 24 hours to provide food, transportation, entertainment and food. She doesn't use words yet, but she can get her point across. Screaming works well. Sometimes, though, if we just aren't getting it she will attempt to eat our faces. Maddie thinks it's funny now, but it won't be long before those little gums sprout teeth. Who will be laughing then?
