Take a Picture!

Jasper LOVES his baby brother. I mean, would kiss him all day long if he could kind of "loves him." Most of the time he wants to smother him with kisses, hold his hand, play near him or the more frightening - dance and flail his body all around him. I haven't figured out what that is accomplishing for him yet. Perhaps it is the combination of elevated excitement from being by his brother and having a brush with danger - danger as in discipline - were he to actually hurt Benjamin.

Here are some photos of Jasper cuddling with his brother (taken 10/31):

Jasper doesn't ask to hold Benjamin much, but when he does we generally comply. A couple of weeks ago while I was out, Jasper asked to hold Benjamin. Once Drew had them all situated on the couch, Jasper looked at Drew and said "take a picture." It was pretty cute!
