At Cousin Camp, Jack met Elisa's 18-month-old daughter, Ellen. This was Jack's first experience dealing with a woman who wanted to be in charge (other than his mother, of course). I kind of felt bad for the little guy, but I figured it was for the best that he learn this aspect of life sooner rather than later.
The initial meeting- very pleasant!
Ellie liked Jack very much and was even willing to share her blanket with him- how sweet!
Aunt Mary demonstrates how to properly pacify an infant.
Ellie was a quick student and immediately followed suit: "BE PACIFIED!!!"
In fact, she was very pleased with her abilities.
Later, we tried again. Poor Jack wasn't too sure about repeating the whole process, though.
"Am I doing it right, Mom?"
"You know, a little more leverage would really help. That's the trick!"
What's even more fun than pacifiers? Trading socks!!!
"I'm tired of playing with boys. They're boring."
