The proud new "mommies"

I started wacthing my friend's baby, Brock yesterday until she's out of school in June. When they came over on Saturday to drop his stuff, it was the girls talked about for two days until she dropped him off in the morning. They are getting quite the practice at being mommies and loving it. That is, until today when the novelty of having him around wore off!!

They just couldn't get enough of him. They didn't want to do anything but play and hold and snuggle him, including getting dressed.
Taking turns feeding him. Katelyn only wanted to do it for a few seconds, but Kelsey lasted the whole bottle, although he is the fastest eater I've ever seen.
They never let him get very far away from them. At least they got dressed, finally.
This is how Kelsey was anytime she was holding him. This was during Katelyn's nap and with the time change she woke up at 6:30 but refused to take a nap because she didn't want to miss anything.
There were a few fussy times throughout the day and Kelsey seemed to have the special touch to just hold him and calm him down. It's fun now because she was too little to hold and carry Katelyn on her own, but now she thinks she's so important to be able to do it herself.
