Overwhelmed...

Sometimes being a Big Brother is a bit overwhelming. There are so many changes and responsibilities....Like keeping track of E's Bear and not getting it mixed up with my "Uncle Jim Bear."
Then I have to practice my counting skills on E's buttons.
There are relatives that come to see E and packages that arrive... for... E!
I have to share the couch with Daddy and "someone else."
I still have all my toys and sometimes have to get into my toy box to find what I am looking for.
And there are other responsibilities like covering E's mouth when she yawns. (During the photo shoot E decides she should up chuck on mommy's shirt.)
And I try to teach her new things like rubbing my head and patting my stomach... at the same time... try it if you think that is easy.
And occasionally I have to pick up my cheerios that somehow get on the floor not once but twice while Papa waits to read me a book he thinks I need to read titled: "What if everybody did that."
And finally I have to keep my toys off E's blanket when she is on the floor. I guess they don't want me to run over her with my rocket.
But my favorite responsibility is to get up close and talk to my baby sister. I think she is neat, even with so many responsibilities being Big Brother
