Kimber & Elias have the greatest time being brothers!!!
Kimber loves to play with Elias. Kimber is learning how to share his toys with his brother. He does make sure the toy does not have sharp edges and isn't to small (or to big). A few weeks ago Kimber & I went to the grocery store. We happened to go pass a section with matchbox cars. Of course Kimber had to have one. While he was looking at them, he picked his out, put it in the cart, went back picked one more out, put it in the cart, and said "that is for Elias". I was so proud of him for thinking of his brother.
Kimber also loves to make Elias laugh. If Greg or I are playing with Elias and making him laugh, Kimber has to jump into the action and start getting Elias to laugh too. Kimber gets the biggest reaction out of Elias. When Kimber gets up to go get a drink of water or to go to the bathroom, Elias will watch him and as soon as Kimber is out of sight, Elias will start crying. Kimber will come back and say that he will be right back. That gets repeated a number of times.
Elias loves playing with Kimber too. Elias wants to play with whatever Kimber has. Elias will get upset if he can't have the same type of toy. He thinks he can have everything too. He still puts everything into his mouth so we have to be careful of what he plays with. Kimber is good to keep the Lego pieces out of the way.
Elias is getting around really well. He does a great job pulling himself with his arms with a little help with his legs. It shouldn't be much longer before he started crawling on "all fours". Because of this Kimber has now started putting up baricades around a section that Elias can't get into. It had started with just a small corner, but now it is almost half of the living room. I am going to try to get it back down to the small corner.
Kimber has been a wonderful big brother. He loves taking care of Elias.
Thank you Kimber!!
You have been a great big brother!
