How's Lucy?

Stephen and I were both anxious to see how Lucy would react to her new baby brother. While we are all still adjusting, Lucy is doing about as good as we thought she would. She knows he's here and she gives some fly-by sniffs, but not much more. The co-existence is going well, but our worries will come when Miles starts to move around and gets more curious about Lucy.

We've done research and we're hoping that even though Lucy doesn't do well with strangers or other kids, maybe she'll accept Miles as part of her "pack" and interact with him a bit differently. Maybe it's wishful thinking, but hey, we can always hope! She does show some protective instincts. When he cries, she comes running with a face like "Hey guys! Do you know this thing is crying? Hello?? He's crying. DO SOMETHING!"

All in all, we plan to hire a private trainer to address Lucy's original issues (pre-baby) and hopefully help her adjust to baby as well.

You talking about me?!
