A bib is no match for this boy. I actually think having it on him can make the whole experience messier. I've taken to attaching the bib to him with a clothes pin when he eats, or else he shoves the whole thing in his mouth then tries to make room for the spoon too.
I kind of thought the novelty of having a baby brother would've worn off for her by now, but she's still very much interested in doing everything for him. She makes up songs for him, offers to feed and bathe him, and frequently rolls from one room to the next hoping to inspire him to do the same. She doesn't often like to be away from him, and when she leaves him, even for just a short while, she gives his caregiver strict instructions on how best to care for him. She recently insisted that Grandpa Marlin be "gentle" with her brother, and then made certain that Grandpa Marlin had clean hands. She didn't want him getting germs on her brother. All this, and she was just leaving the room to use the bathroom. In exchange for her care, she has her brother's undieing love and affection. That boy has nothing but love in his eyes when his sister is in view. Conrad may come to love many women in his lifetime, but his sister will always be his first true love.
In spite of his ongoing health issues, he's really a sweet and happy baby. He talks and chatters, and has a smile for everyone...but the camera. He can be laughing and grinning from ear to ear, but the moment you put a camera in his face, he immediately puts his game face on.
He's growing quick. Its hard to believe that we'll be celebrating 6 months with him in just a week.
