They are becoming so knowledgable. Drew was nursing his clown the other night. All of this was in response to comforting clown after he dropped on the floor. My son Jared is 7 months young. I think this is very soothing to him.
Nursing is definately a time for bonding.
Unfortunatly Ryan gets quite distracted by this and frequently pops off to smile at his older brothers. He has his wheel barrow with a bunch of rocks and dirt in it. He sat down and asked me if there was anything he might get for the roly-polys to eat, I suggested a few dry leaves. So he got them some. So he sat down and very quietly began reading his roly-polys the story.
