Brothers

Despite bouts with jealousy, Kai really does love Finn. He ooohs and aaahs over him and tells me just how cute Finn is.  It is adorable.  But what I find even sweeter is Kai's ability to calm Finn down.  One morning this week, Finn was pretty much inconsolable.  Probably tired and hungry and I was holding off on feeding him and putting him down for a few reasons.  I laid Finn down to tend to something else real quick and before I knew the crying had stopped.  I found Kai laying next to Finn and holding his hand.  How sweet!  And in general, if the hand-holding doesn't work, Kai will start to sing.  And somehow, it almost always works.  Thank goodness for big brothers!



Another thing that Kai LOVES doing is picking out Finn's clothes.  This is how Kai insisted Finn needed to be dressed yesterday.  Can anyone spot the theme?  I thought it was sweet that Kai put the bib on Finn.  It's a bib that Kai considers "his" and so I hadn't even put it in Finn's room.  But Kai ran to his closet, pulled it out, and put it on him.  Once again, so sweet!
