Kolden has tamed our girls. They are much sweeter and kinder when they are "taking care" of him or "baby sitting" him. Remember, Kari is almost six, Kya is getting close to turning 4 in a couple of months, and Kiera is only two, so "taking care" and "baby sitting" Kolden are very supervised events. They really love trying to feed him baby food or his bottle, wiping his face, and especially playing with him and trying to get him to laugh.
Kya and Kolden are really close. All the girls are like little mamas to him, but especially Kya. She puts on a show of follies all unique to her to entertain Kolden and make him really laugh a lot. She sings to him and tries to help him learn to talk. She helps wash him in the bathtub and puts lotion on him. He just thinks she is the coolest thing ever! When Kade and I cannot get him to smile or laugh (mostly because he is cranky from teething) then Kya can come along and start to talk to him or put on a show for him by jumping and acting like a puppy or doing a particular yell that he finds hilarious and he will light up and be so happy. It is fun to watch!
Kiera is on 24/7 spit-up alert. If Kolden has any spit up on him or even food on him she will let us know right away! She will even get a burp cloth or wipey and she is ready to help clean him up. Kari is very good about letting us know what is going on with Kolden. She is also very good to hand us bottles and diapers. She especially likes to feed Kolden baby food and it is really funny to watch and listen. Her dialogue with Kolden as she tries to get him to open his mouth to eat the baby food is very funny. I often wonder if that is how I sound when I am trying to feed Kolden.
Kolden has definitely tamed his sisters down from being more wild. Their more motherly side is coming out and it is nice. I love that they all love each other (the girls fight like crazy with each other too - but not with Kolden, yet).
