1. Help in any way you can, especially in carrying your little sister out to the car.
2. Drive hot wheels cars over her stomach while she is nursing. In fact, do lots of fun things while she's nursing because Mommy can't get up to give you a timeout.
3. Entertain her by playing peek-a-boo while she is getting her diaper changed...
and by decorating her outfits with stickers...
4. Help burp her. It's the only way Mommy lets you get away with smacking your sister.
5. Help stock diapers in the basket. If they don't end up in a neat pile, that's okay. Practice makes perfect!
6. Say "Good Morning!" really loudly first thing when you see your little sister, even if she isn't awake. Mommy will think it's so cute she won't get too mad that you actually woke her up.
7. Do some light dusting while Mommy's back is turned. Remember that even babies get dusty!
8. Give lots of kisses and cuddles to your sister. Even if you don't want to, it makes a great photo op and makes Mommy really happy. You may even get ice cream out of the deal.
9. Just hanging out with your little sister is fun. The best part about little sisters when they're brand new is they can't play with any of your toys!
10. And lastly, if you get overwhelmed with all your big brother tasks, ask for a swaddle. It really is pretty comfy and calming!
