Mikayla helps out

My mom has been here to help basically every day since the twins came home. Thankfully. It's hard even with two people, but we survive when there are two of us.  My mom was already taking care of my niece Mikayla full time, so Mikayla now comes to my house every day to hang out with us.  I've heard it takes 1.3 people to raise a baby… which means even with my mom, we are 0.6 people short during the day. Mikayla is doing her best to be that 0.6 of a person!

Here's how she helps out!

Holding babies:


Making sure all the gear is safe by trying it out before the babies do:




Making sure their outfits are safe by trying them out before the babies do (yes, that's Mikayla wearing a 0-3 month outfit on top, followed by Amelia wearing the same outfit on the bottom):



Bringing the babies toys:


Teaching the babies about proper tummy time...


Feeding babies (after practicing on her baby dolls)...


Bathing the babies:



Pushing the stroller: 


Helping with their self esteem by telling them how cute they are:


And imitating their spit-up so they don't feel self-conscious...


Singing them to sleep:




And even helping with the household chores:


What a helper!!
