There are far fewer pictures taken during the visit than we wanted, partly I think because we could never find the camera due to constantly putting it high atop shelves so various kids wouldn't pick it up and do who knows what.
When called to do so, Jasper would peer at Oly and pet her arm, but generally he had better things to do.
Though, from across the living room once, he pointed at her and said "Baby!" loud and clear. While saying our goodbyes this morning he reached over, grabbed her chubby little fist and held it to his forehead with closed eyes and a concentrated face as though he was reading her future.
Olympia enjoyed lots of smiley time with her Aunt Amy,
...as well as a little sleepy time.
Lucy is a pro at helping fussy children out of their funk. She and Oly also have a VERY important thing in common- their love of ponies.
Several times during the visit she would announce that she was ready to hold Olympia, bring a pillow and blanket into the corner of the couch and hold both hands straight out- no matter how long it took to actually get the baby into her arms. Then the paparazzi would flash away until we saw Lucy folding under the weight of that giant child. She'll have bruises on her thighs tomorrow, no doubt.
