Merit has always been a girly girl. Even when she was a tiny baby, simply the sounds and squeals she made were so girly. She has always loved to "ooohhh" and "aahhh", and these days a lot of things are "awww, sweet" or "ohhh, cute".

Like any good girly girl does, she loves all kinds of jewelry...necklaces are a favorite.

 

And she especially loves her babies.

 She gives them advice for living in this crazy world.

And she takes care of them so sweetly.

 
Sometimes, she just can't get enough baby love. She is such a good little mama.

She did so well when she got to hold her first real baby during Christmas...her little cousin Grant. She loved him so much.


Which is why I know that come August, she is going to be the best big sister ever.

 

Wouldn't you agree?
