In the first couple of days, Lex was so
often encouraged to “come see the baby” that it would seem he
is taking the suggestion as literally as one could. He
regularly walks over to Eve when she is accessible around head
height, leans in so his face is within a few inches of hers, and
with his cute, high-pitched, happy-voice, says “See? …
See?”

He will repeat this three or four
times before moving on to other activities. These other
activities often include sweet little kisses, mildly
over-enthusiastic hugs, and most recently, trying to pick her
up or, “hold the baby,” as he says. Obviously, we are trying to
tame the last two for the short term, but so far, Eve has not
complained beyond a few subtle grunts and squeaks. She appears
to be an easy going soul, which she will need if the peace is
to be kept as they get older. Don’t get me wrong: Lex roles
with the punches as well as any toddler I have ever seen, but
he is a wild man to the core, and I wouldn’t have it any other
way.
