Leina loves to nurse. She constantly assesses her stuffed animals for signs of thirst. And if, say, Tigger is looking a bit parched, she settles herself down, lifts her little shirt, and stuffs Tigger on her chest while proudly announcing, “look mommy, I’m nursing my baby!” After a few minutes, she will remove Tigger, burb him, and then select her next hungry baby.<\/p>\n
Personally, I find this hilarious especially when she declares that Puppy is nursing lemonade or orange juice. What can I say, the kid is gifted.<\/p>\n
So it isn’t exaggerating in the least when I say I fell over backwards in hysterics when the inevitable happened yesterday. Leina decided to nurse one of her babies, looked over her animal kingdom and her gaze rested on…… her sister.<\/p>\n
Yes, Kulia was unfortunate enough to find herself within Leina’s line of vision and I guess she looked hungry ’cause Leina hoisted her shirt, grabbed Kulia’s head and thrust her against her chest.<\/p>\n
Poor sister was stunned into immobility. Much like a deer in headlights, Kulia froze when confronted with Leina’s little chest. I thought for sure she’d start screaming bloody murder for being manhandled (or rather, sister-handled) but she took it in stride. Leina sat, beaming, with her sister’s face smashed into her belly. After a moment, Leina announced “she’s all done!” and released her dazed sister. She then began to vigorously pat Kulia on the back, looking for a burb. Kulia, thinking this was some kind of new game, broke into a big grin and started whopping Leina in the face. This was not quite what Leina had in mind and this Hallmark sister moment quickly degraded into shrieks, screams and fisticuffs.<\/p>\n
My only regret is that I didn’t have the camera near by because you know the girls would want me to preserve that moment. Of course, it might have been a tad difficult to find scrap book stickers to decorate a “look, I’m nursing my sister” page. But I’m crafty, I could have worked around that.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
