BFF's

It may sound strange...



but I love the relationship between Eric and Sara as if it's our third child. It's indescribable!

Ever since we brought Sara home, Eric has been completely head over heals in love!



So much so, we had to keep her on higher grounds her first couple months. He wanted so badly to be close to her, that he wouldn't quite realize just how hard he was leaning/squeezing her.

The times we did have her on the floor, he was right by her side loving her!



Needless to say, the feeling is SO mutual! Daddy and I can dance, and make the craziest of noises and we'll get a giant smile out of Sara. Yet, her big brother simply walks by her and she is hysterical laughing!!! Each! And! Every! Time!!!



And he LOVES it!!! (I'm hiding in this video so they can just be themselves and not act differently for the camera)



The best is seeing them together when no ones watching! Or so they think no ones watching! hehehe!



Baby (Eric's name for Sara- he's dropped the Da-Da..aka..Sara! hahaha) even makes bath time more fun!!! He'll ask "Baby, want bubbles with Eric!?!" in the most excited voice!



You know there's love in the air if Eric lets you touch his books! Don't get me wrong, there are plenty of times he'll say "Baby NO!..Eric's books!" even if she is just touching a corner of a book he's not even using. But then there are times like this that just melt your heart!



Eric, we love the big brother you are. And the love you have for Sara! Sara, we love the little sister you are. And the love you have for Eric! You play, you fight, you laugh, you love!

I love when he gets her giggling...her laugh is so adorable. And when she was in her jumper and they didn't know you were taping..and he just rested his head on her. So so beautiful to watch.
