Elsie is loving baby Porter. She is a big helper. Tonight we asked her to get a diaper...and she did. This is the first time she has ever opened the drawer...she did such a great job...(so of course we did it again so we could get it on video.) As you can tell she continues to make great progress! Shes a great little girl!


And here is a little shot with Porters eyes open...he seems to have his days and nights mixed up right now...so eyes open in the day is kinda rare. He is such a cute little boy! We sure do love him!

My heart is so happy to see how much Elsie has learned, I've watched it ten times. I love it and to see little Porter looking really good with his eyes open is great! Beautiful eyes beautiful baby Our Heavenly Father has blessed us mightily. Love Grandma "Ene"

Porter is a very beautiful newborn. I see that you've turned Elsie into a little slave. I used to have one of those but Easton got older and doesn't think it's fun anymore to do everything i tell him to do.

She is so smart! She is such a fast crawler and if you blink you miss her standing up to the drawer! She will be a great helper for you! Baby Porter looks great! He is such a handsome boy!

That is so funny. I love how she climbs back up to close the drawer. Such a good little helper. Cute baby too.

Way to go Elsie! That just made my whole day....and she is so excited to help too! She is doing so great. And little Porter is just a cute little guy...with his eyes open or shut. I love him so much already!

This video isn't working for me...is it working for everyone else? Maybe it's my computer :(

Elsie is already growing up and filling her responsibilities as a big sister.. So awesome!!
We have the flu at our house, but will call to have the girls come play when we are better...

Elsie is just amazing! I love how dilengently she made sure the drawer was closed! And how powerfully she pulled the diaper out of the door...so powerfully it knocked her down!

Porter is beautiful!
Could his day/night mix-up be attributed, maybe a little, to the caffiene dose he needs every night? :)
