So Excited!!

Tonight while having dinner we were talking about our day and I was telling Ellianne to tell her dad all about what we did, where we went, who we saw, etc. We had gone to Babies R Us to get a few last minute items needed for Rhett and of course we saw lots of babies. Elle loved them and was telling Rusty all about the "tiny baby boy, and the other one tiny baby boy"....we saw twin newborns (actually they were 2 of the 3 triplets, but sister was still in the hospital) I then took that as another opportunity to tell Elle that very soon we would have our tiny baby boy/brother in our house and that we will get to hold him and love him. She smiled and talked a little about "baby Rhett/baby brother", but not much. Well, about an hour later after bath I was getting her dressed and she just randomly said in a very loud and excited tone, "I so excited to have a baby Rhett!" Rusty and I started laughing at her b/c she was running around and obviously very "excited"! She then lifted up my shirt and said "that's a big belly, I want to hold him, get him out!!" she then leaned forward and kissed my stomach and started to pat/hit it b/c she was so excited. It was quite funny and it made me realize that she DOES get it...she understands there is a real baby inside and that she will get to hold him soon! Can't wait to see how it all goes down...but that made me feel a lot better about it all! She absolutely LOVES babies...every time she sees a baby anywhere she wants to touch it, hold it, and talk to it. She will probably "mother" him to death and I know I will have to keep a very close eye on her!!
