Meeting Baby Tih-ter

 Meghan and Cooper came up to meet their baby sister at the end of her first day after Memma and Pop picked them up from school.  They came ready with their big sister and big brother shirts.  We had many discussions about how baby will be breakable - but they didn't really understand that; Meg just kept asking if she would be breakable like glass.



 Cooper was actually much more interested in the nasal bulb (aka "ball!") and in investigating the hospital room.
 But very willing to help hold the baby as long as Meghan took turns like she was supposed to.
 Cooper especially was still confused on her name as his Daddy had been calling her Peyton and encouraging them to do so - cute to hear him call her "Pay-tong".   Trying to convince him to call her Katie was difficult with this.  Meghan had declared several days before her birth that we needed a prettier name - she was okay with calling her Katie.  To this day her most common reference is "baby tih-ter" or "my baby" or just "baby". 
 It's still hard to convince not to touch faces and kiss on mouth.  She gets lots of kisses on her head.

So cute! I love their faces...so interested, yet confused. :) When I showed Lexi her picture the other day, she just kept saying "Boo Boo" over & over & pointing to her tummy where they have that yellow clamp thing on her cord. :)
