Chay Is A Big Brother

While the twins were in the NICU, Chay was not allowed in to see his brothers. We spent time telling him of his brothers. And we showed him lots of pictures. After I put the car seats in the back seat, on either side of Chay's seat, Chay would occasionally point to one and say "Jace" or say "Jenner". So he was getting the idea of the fact that he had two brothers that would be joining him soon. But how much does a 2-year really comprehend with these sorts of things? We were worried about how Chay would react when reality hit home (literally and figuratively). In the past, Chay has thrown a fit when he has seen either of his parents holding another infant. Would he do the same when Jace & Jenner came home? Would he lash out or would he embrace his younger siblings? It turns out to be the latter. Chay has been great around Jace and Jenner. He seems to really enjoy have them around. We'll see if that attitude remains when they get bigger and try to play with one of Chay's prized toys!

Yay! So glad everyone is home safe and sound :) I'm glad Chay is adjusting and finally gets to spend time with his little bros.
