All babies should come with...

...older brothers!  This morning I slipped out of my bed quietly, because A was sleeping in it, and got on the treadmill.  Sometime during my run C and K woke up.  Not much later A woke up.  K was quick to pick her up.  He is getting very good at comforting her with some gentle rocking.  C came to let me know that A was awake.  By the time I made it upstairs K had A propped up on the sofa and was talking to her.  She seemed content enough so I asked K if he would mind staying with her while I showered.  When I was finished with my shower this is what I found:

The boys were in their room setting up for a game of Axis and Allies.  They had laid A out on the floor and she was happy to be watching them play.  One boy would take his turn while the other would chat with A, then they would switch.  She was still content so I was able to finish getting ready while C and K entertained A.  Apparently three-month olds are much easier when they come with 9 and 7 year olds.
