Munchkin adores her Baby Ruthe! I love to see how much love and concern Munchkin has for Papoose. When Papoose is sleeping, Munchkin will go to her bed and just watch her sleep for a few minutes and say, "Baby Ruthe sleeping. Baby Ruthe pretty sleeping."
When Papoose is on the floor for tummy time, Munchkin will lay down next to her and insist that she have tummy time, too. Munchkin also likes to show Papoose her toys. Sometimes, Munchkin asks me to put Papoose in the stroller so she can take her for a walk, and Munchkin insists on pushing Baby Ruthe. I love that Munchkin wants to play with Papoose!

Munchkin is a bit possessive of the blankets in the house... i've noticed she has started accumulating them in her room. When Papoose is wrapped in a blanket, no matter what blanket, Munchkin tells us that it is her "blanken" and she wants it. Most of the time we tell her that she needs to share that blankets, and everything is ok. But if Munchkin is tired, we've been known to having minor crying fits about who's blanket it is.

At bedtime after saying prayers, we do something like a family huddle cheer-- we all put hands in the middle and shout, "Love ya!" (it's something Brad did growing up, so we do it in our family, too). From day 1, Munchkin has insisted that Baby Ruthe do "love-loves" also. And then she gives Papoose a hug a kiss, even if mommy is trying to feed Papoose at the moment, which makes things awkward. I must admit, that one of the greatest joys I have found as a mommy is seeing how much my girls love each other. It just makes my heart all warm and fuzzy!

| can you say, "awe!" |
 |
| more kisses... |
 |
| sweet-ness! |
And before I mislead anyone into thinking our home is always picture perfect and peaceful... Proof that the Neeley house isn't always full of rainbows, sunshine, and smiles...

| Big sister trying to make little sister be quiet... feel the love? |
 |
| sometimes, Munchkin likes to "ruthe roll in blanken"... Papoose doesn't enjoy this game very much, yet. |
 |
| Looks like typical sisters to me! |
Munchkin and Papoose really are average siblings that argue, fight, tease, annoy, etc... but in the end, they love ever other so much!
 |
| No matter how much they bicker, they really love each other! |
