Photo Shoot





Since the arrival of her little brother, the Empress has had a bit of an adjustment. Of course we discussed with her what the first couple of months might be like when he came home. On the surface she is fine. She is a doting big sister. She adores him. He adores her. But underneath, deep in the core of our Empress, things are upset. She is acting out. She is in tears. She is unreasonable. We decided to let her stay up an extra half hour each night after he goes to bed. It is a half hour of undivided attention. We play games, do crafts, read books, snuggle. It is alone time with mom and dad and she is doing much better because of it. It is good for us as well. I miss my Empress. Little guy takes a lot of attention and time.

So, she asked me if we could do a little photo shoot. Too funny. I told her to pick out three outfits and we would do it. So, what do you think of my little super model? They were the first photos of her new hair cut. Adorable. So grown up for 5.
