Such cute pictures! I love the one where Moriah is sucking her thumb! It's so nice having older kids who help hold the baby sometimes. Your older daughter is looking so lovingly at her! I think it is so wonderful for older kids to have the experience of holding a baby and growing up with babies around. My kids always say "I love that the twins are so happy! Why are babies so happy?"
Yes! My kids love babies, which I love! =) And it is sooo helpful to have big kids! We had a three year gap between Moriah and the next youngest, and it made a big difference in how much the older kids could help!
We had a big gap at one point too. We had a 4 year gap between our 4th and 5th(I had an ectopic pregnancy that ruptured one of my fallopian tubes). I couldn't believe how much easier having a baby felt with that much of a gap! No one needed me to hold them during the pregnancy and no one else was in diapers when the baby was born! I will be sorry when everyone grows and we no longer have babies around, but it was really interesting getting a taste for what life will be like when we are no longer able to have more children.
