Anna is the best Big Sister

Poor Lily and Anna... we got our H1N1 shot, Seasonal Flu shot and HepA shot on Tuesday... they both didn't react very well afterwards.. ok they fell asleep in the car on the way home and had some discomfort but we've always had that happen. Wednesday Lily was a mess and Anna was ok (or seemed to be) so Anna went to daycare by herself while I went to work at Carter's for a few hours. Not too long after I got to Carter's Lee called to tell me that daycare had called to tell him that Anna wasn't acting like herself at all.. screaming and just not a happy kid.. I told Lee that if he had to, he could call my mom to watch Lily while he went to go get Anna. I wound up getting her myself on my way home after my shift was over.. That evening Anna was really great to Lily (heck she always is) and helped Daddy get a blanket for Lily and even rubbed her back and brought her the Elmo balloon that we got them a couple of weeks ago to play with.

So fast forward to this afternoon... Lily was having a hard day after a hard night and early morning. I brought the girls over to Grandma's for our weekly dinner and fun night. We got back and Grandma had Lily in the rocking chair in their room. Anna is following me around and trying to be helpful and sees that Lily is sleeping on Grandma and goes to investigate. Grandma told her that Lily is sick and sleeping.. Anna (good sister that she is) goes to Lily's crib and pulls down Lily's Pooh Bear blanket and brings it to Grandma for Lily.. what a nice sister she is.
