They are close in age and size and it was so fun seeing how the two interacted. Similar baby mannerisms - the drooling, hand-slapping, thumb sucking, crawling.. but yet different.
Baby K showed Em the ropes around the new environment. She demonstrated how to be non-chalant when big bro T hugs and kisses them, which toys are the cool ones, how to eat solids, and how to play side by side with minimal hair grabbing.
Cousin T was excited to be the big bro of the house. He gave her hugs and kisses and called her his "other baby". Em loved being with cousin T as he would make her laugh and smile from his sheer exuberance and volume. =)
Baby Em showing Cousin K her turf on a separate occasion:
While Baby Em does not fair as well as her cousins in the toughness department, she definitely held her own in scream volume. I have always considered her loud, but I thought it was normal baby loudness level. After meeting a few babies and hearing their cries, I now know that Baby Em is, indeed, a very LOUD baby that is one notch higher on the volume level. Luckily for our ears, the duration and frequency isn't too often.
It's interesting to note the two baby's personalities. K is calm and collect. Baby Em is a little spastic. hehe. Her emotions are well expressed.
Cousin T tries to calm Em down by holding her and rubbing her belly. (Her crying here is my fault. It was past her lunch time and she was hungry. Instead, I took pictures! =P)
And cousin K cries along in sympathy with Em.
Cousins to hang with, and two babies together... double the fun! =)
