When my Mom sees a beautiful baby she always says "he is like a butter". And I could never make a connection between baby and butter, but now I kind of know what she means. This little boy is the most perfect little boy I have ever seen. His skin is so soft and creamy and "buttery". And his tiny blonde hair was the softest thing ever. I am so lucky to be able to hold such a tiny babies every once in a while :) And wait until you hear about his "big" sister. If he is sweet as butter, she is a Honeybunch-Sugarplum-Sweetie Pie. As soon as she saw me, we were best friends. She extended her little arms, asking me to hold her. She locked her little leggies around my waist and wouldn't let go. She had nothing by smiles for me. Later on, while I was holding her, she was snuggling with me and singing to me and tapping me on the shoulder. I even got a kiss. She is so gentle with her little brother, gives him kisses all the time. And she is only 17 months, still a baby herself. J & J, you have such a precious little darlings and I am so honoured that I had a chance to spend time with your beautiful family.
