Jasper and his friend C
Once a week, my friend Kathleen and I do a swap. It's been working out really well for both of us. Jasper loves C. (I'll just use her initial for confidentiality). She's a year older than he is and Jasper loves to watch and follow whatever she is doing. Today, we went to story time in Shoreline (it was the only place having one on a Monday) and in the car, C sang songs to Jasper and handed him crackers to keep him happy. She kept saying "I'm making baby Jasper happy!!" It was super cute. Later, we took a walk to the park and C began "reading" Dr. Seuss's ABC's (she actually knew quite a bit of it word for word) to Jasper. He listened better to her than he ever has when I read to him. It makes me want to have another baby when I see how fun it is for Jasper to have a playmate. Anyway, here are some shots from the park:

Love those overhead shots. And swapping babysitting is genius!
Yay! It's fun to see pictures of C. I'm not surprised that she knows most of the book word for word. I remember her older sister being able to recite "The Night Before Christmas" almost verbatim without prompting when she was just two years old. How fun. Wish I was there.
They look so cute together...and I think car rides are one of the times when having more than one comes in most handy! When Ella was a baby she hated sitting back there facing backwards by herself and Addie never minded because she had Ella to entertain her (not to mention the running commentary I now get, "mom, Addie took off her headband...Addie threw her book ;-)
So glad to hear you are reading to Jasper. I hope it is for at least twenty minutes a day, at the same time everyday! Regards - Sister Okazaki
Cute, cute kiddos. The girls regularly play "Sara and Jasper" at our house -- they sure love their buddy Jasper!
Wow, Okazaki reads your blog!
Love those pictures of Jasper and C. She's a cutie- and so smart!
