Helping mommy

So far the girls have been good regarding me being preg. I'm already 4 1/2 months and the girls have heard the heart beat:) they both are excited to know if they will welcome a brother or sister. Since the girls are older (akira 10 and Gena will be 5) they now have more responsibilities . Akira already takes out the trash and makes her own bed, but now her job is to help with the dogs and clean up after them. When we eat her job is also to wash her own dishes... not everyones just hers...she's been helping me carry the basket of laundry and making sure that all her cloths are put away. It's been hard she still gets moody but she's never talked back just makes her " do I really have to" face lol
Gena... Oh Gena.... See she's never had to do much pick up her toys and that's it, now when I ask her to put her cloths away when I do laundry she says she's scared to.. Why? " because I'm small and need help" yup she's playing the I'm to small to do things card, doesn't work. She also makes her bed (sortof) and gets dressed alone. We help her less now which is great. She kisses the belly ALOT. Akira is not as affectionate she's never been but she will hug me and give kisses... But tells me she's excited about the baby. I'm just happy that they are helping out more and I think this will make a BIG difference once the baby is born:)

They are already so helpful. They are going to help even more when the baby is here. How cute! I can already picture your little baby with so many little mommies surrounding him/her. Precious!
