So we’re all ready for bed and the last step is walking Noelle up to bed.  I find her, sharing her prized possession (kanky) with Rose and reading her a bedtime story.  She is the best biggest sister ever!

I mean, look how happy she makes Rose.  Rose is rolling over and smiling and every time she does something special, Noelle always says, “You’re a genius!  You’re just a little genius now aren’t you!?!”  It’s the sweetest thing.

Night night, sweet girls!  Oh, and this is how it usually comes to an end at night. Anna Kate always goes to sleep first.  When it’s almost time, she will say, “I’m ready to go night night,” and we tuck her in, Noelle next, and then Rose is usually asleep by the time the big girls routines come to an end.”
