Seth is always eager to help me with Liam, thriving on the desire to be a big helper since he's the oldest. Sometimes it's a little....overwhelming to have him constantly offer help, especially when it involves cooking or holding wiggly Liam for a period of time. He loves to do it, but we've learned I'm not the only messy cook in the family and Seth's big muscles are no match for Liam's chub.
He loves his role, though, and he has been such a helper while I'm tied up taking care of Eliza, making dinner, straightening up, etc... He gives Liam extra loves and attention, even if Liam is cool at hanging on his own.He's also the typical big brother for Eliza; whacking at her, stealing her food under the guise that she's sharing, and all around making her the toughest monkey around!
She doesn't really need that much help, though. She's definitely the fearless one in the family, and as much a Daddy's girl as ever! In fact, that's the only way we could get her to stay still long enough to get this picture of her yesterday morning.
I took pics of the brotherly love goin' on after we all woke up for the day, and Eliza wanted her picture too. She just kept bouncing around, so Daddy got in on the fun, too.
Needless to say, Liam loves his big brother. He's still figuring out Eliza since she always seems to be plotting, but he's definitely loved all around!

Yea for Liam.
Our 4th grader is a fantastic helper for his younger twin brother and sister.
