The big question has been how James would react to his new little sister. We have been talking about her to him for months but being only 17 months, we were not sure how much he understood and how he would react to sharing her. In the hospital the first day, Charlotte was not the most exciting thing to James, the balloons that Jenn brought and all the buttons on my hospital bed as well as the other exciting things in the room were his focus. It was like he did not even know she was there- but the second day he was a bit more receptive and started taking an interest in her. He did not want to touch her, he likes to look at her though- constantly saying “up” to lift him up to look into the bassinet and then he would smile at her!
