The initial days Sean tends to get more scolding from us mainly because he always wanted to disturb his "mei mei", after we had tried so hard in making her to sleep.
The first few days of Sharlene's arrival we do notice that there are some behaviour changes in Sean. He tends to behave badly (Eg: Throwing his mei mei's mitten under the bed/chairs,purposely do things that we say no etc, talking extremely loud to wake his sister up etc).
We felt that he was trying to seek our attention, as since Sharlene is here we tend to spend more time on the gal.Please don't misunderstand, not that we don't love Sean, just that he is more independant comparing to her baby sister so we tend to spend more time on her. On top of that recently we also seems to say alot of No or Don't to Sean. Like "Sean don't do this", "Sean no not so rough" etc....because Sean at times can be quite rough to the baby.
But overall he still loves his sister alot. No doubt about it. He will kiss her everyday without fail.We can tell that he always want to play with her despite the fact that the sister can not be bothered and choose to sleep most of the time.Due to the lack of response from the sister so Sean will just choose to lie down on the bed next to her, share his bed or snuggler under Sharlene's blanket together with her. We ever jokingly told him that we gave the baby away and he is very upset about it.
Now that Sharlene is with us for few weeks, Sean's bad behavior has improve. He is more or less adapted to haviing his mei mei around.He can now listen better when we ask him to be gentle to the baby eventhough occasionally he will forgets about it.
I am glad that he loves his sister, hope that this will be forever.
