This afternoon, Janie met her baby cousins for the first time. Initially, she was hesitant and didn’t know what to think despite talking about them all week.
She remembered their names and quickly learned who was who based on which rocker he or she was sleeping in. She commented on how Thomas has the monkey chupon (pacifier) and Toni has the elephant. She also told Auntie Jia that Thomas had more hair.
She spent a lot of time sitting with Auntie Jia while she fed each of them over and over again. Any time one would cry, she would run to the room to check on them. At one point, Uncle Jason said, “let’s go back to the livingroom” and she waved him off and said, “no, I’m gonna watch the baby”.
She was also consoling Big GG throughout the afternoon and placed him in the swing in the evening.
She also had the whole afternoon to play with Ankong and Ama.
They had lots of giggles together.
She shared her necklaces and toys with them.
Janie had a fun time today with her newly expanded family.
On our way home this evening, she said that the babies “cry and sleep and eat a lot too”.
