From being curious about her baby sister, to being a little bit protective, Nadya then swung to the other end of the spectrum when she realised that people were paying abit more attention to the "cute little baby" than her. There came a point several months back when Nadya didn't allow me to carry Alyssa at all and would melt into a crying fussing mess at my feet if I did so.
Fast forward to now...things are better. Nadya still has her jealous fits from time to time. But we let her participate in the caring of Alyssa (like helping to throw Alyssa's diapers into the dustbin haha). She does "sayang" Alyssa now by patting her head or body or arms. She holds her tiny hands too. Sometimes she gives Alyssa hugs or she ruffles her hair. Sometimes she uses her face to nuzzle Alyssa.
And last night...she lay down next to Alyssa. It was such a sweet sight to see.
