Big Helper

We got the special chance to have another sweet little girl in our house, baby Ruby.  Friends, Andy and Ashley, have the most adorable red-haired little girl.  When Ashely was looking for someone to watch Ruby for a couple house, I jumped at the chance!  Jake also loved having Ruby around.  He was especially considerate and helpful.  My heart definitely melted a little seeing how sweet he was with her.  We all had dinner together, and Jake first tried out feeding Ruby her baby food.  When that proved a little messy, Jake left that task to Mom and Dad, and decided he wanted to hand feed Ruby her Cheerios.  Ruby loves herself some Cheerios, so Jake was definitiely validated for his effort.  He kept saying, "She's so hungry!"

Carefully, carefully...

I don't really know what Ruby thought of being hand-fed, since she is beg enough to get her own Cheerios, but she didn't seem to mind and Jake definitely liked having a special way to contribute.
