My little Sophie is loving being a big sister, and one of her favorite activities since Jonah’s been born has been supervising his diaper changes. When we go to the changing table, she selects the diaper for me and gets two, count ’em two, wipes out of the wipes container for me. She always prophesies that there will be poop in the diaper and if there’s not, she immediately loses interest and leave the room! If there is indeed poop, she provides color commentary while I clean the boy up. She, like her mom, enjoys a good poop story.
Sophie has never been much for her baby dolls (she loves her doll house, and doll play sets, but she’s never lovingly carried a baby doll around), but yesterday she found a diaper that goes with her Baby Alive doll and I could see the light in her eyes as she realized, “OMG BFF I can change my baby doll’s DIAPER!” She then proceeded to take the diaper off and on, off and on of Baby Alive like, 4 million times. And then, she wanted to know where Baby Alive’s bottle was.
“Well, we can find the bottle,” I said, “or you can feed her like mommy feeds Jonah.” Again, her eyes lit up. “I’m gonna give her some milk!” She then proceeded to lift her shirt a little bit and “nurse” her baby. My heart melted. A LOT. It was one of the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen! After she fed her, she burped her, diapered her again and repeated the process. It was awesome. My little sweetheart.
She’s such a great little baby mama!
Love it.
Give Little Baby Mama a kiss for me.

Adorable!
Adorable. And what a way to promote breast feeding!
That is precious! My little princess did the same thing after her brother was born! Love those moments!
awww! so sweet!
Ohh…goodness….have I got “poop” stories! After 5 kids, I really should have written them down to preserve the “realness” of being MOM! And reguarding breastfeeding babydolls, my kids have b’fed just about every stuffed critter in the house…kinda weird to see your sweet toddler nursing a Webkin, but, oh well. One of my kiddos would alway refer to breastfeeding as “eating Mommy’s belly”….I say that’s close enough! Lol!
A perfect example of children learn what they see from there parents.
What a little sweetheart. How proud you must be.
So cute! My son did that once with his stuffed giraffe! Hilarious!
My daughter did this too she was about 19 months old and her little brother just a couple of months. I was a bit surprised but then I thought it was sweet. She has just started the changin the babies diaper or taking it off and taking the baby to go potty. I love it.
that is so sweet!! my daughter did the same thing when i had my son 🙂
