Brotherly Love

For the past 5 months we have talked about how much Bryleigh has changed or how much Brenden has grown, but we've sort of neglected to tell you about how much they have grown and changed together. The other night it was time to feed Bryleigh and Brenden asked if he could feed her by himself. The moment was so cute that of course we wanted to take a picture. It wasn't until we downloaded the pictures that we realized the progression that has been captured in the pictures below...we've posted them in the order they were taken.

The first meeting...notice, he's not really touching herBrenden "holds" Bryleigh for the first time...still not really touching her
Brenden holds Bryleigh for the first time by himselfFirst time feeding Bryleigh Now...he's like a pro! Holding her in his lap, feeding her the bottle when needed, and even gently touching her head as he concentrates to make sure she's eating right! Amazing!
We have loved witnessing this progress each day and are thankful that we have these pictures to help us remember how far we've come in such a short period of time. We are so excited with how well Brenden is doing with Bryleigh and love seeing him grow fonder of her daily! It is such a blessing to be a parent and one day Bryleigh will see that it's also a blessing to have a brother!
