We couldn't have asked for a better transition home - really. The girls were fantastic. Celie greeted us at the door and hugged both Bob and I. Anna was no where to be found. Bob had Jake in his car carrier. Celie peaked in to see Jake. And she said - "Is that Jake?" We said, "yes, honey, that is Jake." She responded, "WOW!"
Anna was totally into a movie in the living room and couldn't be persuaded to join us out in the foyer/hearth room. So, we took Jake in his carrier into the living room. As soon as Jake entered the room, Anna forgot about the movie. She went to the carrier and peaked in. She was very careful to move his cover over to the side so she could see him. She didn't leave his side for over 2 hours.
We had to keep reminding Anna to be gentle because she wanted to squeeze and take him with her.
Celie held him very well on her own. She did a great job supporting his head.
The girls and I holding Jake. Below - I am holding Jake while Anna HAS to have a least one hand on him.
I think the novelty of him is wearing off a little bit, but they are still a great help. We are very lucky to have 3 great kids.

I being Jake's Grammy would not think of having a biased opinion, however I must say, he is the most precious baby boy in the world!
