An excited two-year-old girl kissed and cuddled her newborn brother as he came home from the hospital in an adorable home video.
Blaise Dyer, 32, from Bristol, decided to film the moment her two-year-old daughter Mallory met her new brother Rhodie to preserve these precious memories.
In the clip, Mallory arrives home to be introduced to her brother for the very first time — and she's clearly excited to meet him.
As she runs into the room, Mallory shouts “baby!” before handing a card to her mother.
But the two-year-old insists she must take off her shoes before sitting on the sofa to cuddle newborn Rhodie.

Mallory gently kisses her brother on the forehead as she joins her mother.
But seconds later, she decides she's not done cuddling the newborn yet and adorably hands little Rhodie out of Blaise's hands.
Mallory pulls him onto her lap and says, “Hi, baby!”
She then hands Rhodie back to Blaise and says, “Thanks!”
Blaise said she always knew she wanted to capture this moment on camera.
She added: “I love filming things, just for memories and for myself. So I knew this was the moment I had to get on film.

Blaise said two-year-old Mallory's reaction to her brother was exactly as she had hoped
“We'd been telling Mallory for a while that she was going to have a little brother, so I knew I needed her reaction when she finally met him.
'I'm mainly an Instagram user, that's where I post all my mom content.
“But I decided to upload this to TikTok, and everyone loved it. The reactions were so nice.'

Blaise said Mallory's reaction was exactly as she had hoped.
“I was hoping she would show interest and she has certainly exceeded my expectations,” the mother of two added.
'Some adults are not as confident in interacting with babies as they are in the video.
“I knew it was going to be a great moment no matter how she reacted.”
