An addition to our family

Your family has grown with the addition of a baby girl! She was born last night at 11:30 P.M. Malakai is a little over three years old now, and has been eagerly awaiting the baby's birth. Malakai holds and rocks the baby, and even feeds her with a bottle of pre-pumped breast milk or formula. Malakai is fascinated with the baby and tells everyone about her. You notice as the weeks go by that Malakai likes to imitate the baby's sounds and movements, and enjoys play-acting a baby role. He sometimes seems to be regressing and becoming more demanding and whiny, and less cooperative, but other times prides himself on being a competent older sibling.
