The second child

Oh the second child. You know the one with the incomplete baby book. You have hundreds of pictures of the first baby and a few of the second baby. You can remember the first smile and the first time baby number one rolled over and everything is documented perfectly in the baby book. But for baby number two you can hardly remember if you put clean clothes on them today. Another unfortunate problem for the second child is that everything they get is a hand-me-down. This can be extremely problematic for the little brother who has an older sister.

Here is Caedan in Olivia's old pink winter boats. Can you see the look of embarrassment on his face.
Here is Caedan on his new hand-me-down bike. Oh yes that is a purple bike with flowers and streamers complete with the Strawberry Shortcake helmet.How much do you think therapy is going to cost us?

It's funny because it's so true.

Caedan can give Maxx pointers on how to cope with all the pink hand-me-downs!
