Kobe, a very adorable Golden Retriever, had his whole life turned upside down when his mom, Danielle, found out she was pregnant.
However, Kobe decided to embrace his new life, making it all about himself!
Happy News
Within the first months of Danielle’s pregnancy, Kobe knew that something was happening inside her belly.
“He realized something was different pretty early in the pregnancy. He started laying his head on my belly, and that was not a thing he was doing before,” said Danielle.
As soon as Danielle and her partner started preparing for the baby, Kobe knew he had to be involved in the whole process.
He tried to be the best helper around, but the thing was, he did it in his own special way…
When we were setting up the nursery, Kobe tried to be super involved. He would just be stealing pieces of the furniture.
Kobe also decided to take all of the toys Danielle prepared for her baby girl, thinking they were all meant for him.
Danielle then thought of the perfect idea. She bought a little baby doll, thinking it would help Kobe get used to having a little girl around, but he just saw it as another toy just for him!
She’s Here
When the new addition to the family finally came, Kobe just couldn’t keep his excitement to himself.
His eyes are, like, bulging out of his head. He’s just so excited to see her.
The new parents were extremely pleased to find out that Kobe loved his new baby sister, considering how important they would be to each other.
It didn’t take long for this pup to realize that he had to be super gentle around the baby, and he also didn’t take long to realize that he had to be with her every single moment!
“At night, when we get up and feed, the dog will come into the nursery with us, lay down beside Danielle,” said Gabe, Danielle’s partner.
Big Brother
Kobe became the best big brother ever!
He made sure he was on babysitting duty every single second of the hour. Whenever his sister made the slightest sound, Kobe was there to check out what was going on.
When she’s napping, if she stirs or starts crying, he will stand up immediately and walk over.
The first thing Kobe does when he wakes up in the morning is go into his baby sister’s room and check up on how she’s doing.
Whenever she is playing on the floor, her big brother is right there next to her, making sure everything is in perfect order.
However, even as a big brother, he is still pretty demanding on Kobe’s time!
Kobe still acts like an only child at times. He’s still demanding lots and lots of attention, but he’s also learning how to be a big brother and adapting well.
Being such a responsible big brother, asking for love and attention is a very fair trade if you ask me.
I’m sure that over time, Kobe and his baby sister will continue to grow together and become an inseparable pair that will have the best playdates ever!
Good job, Kobe!
