We are still having a challenging time adjusting to Alfee and Sophie's response to the little newcomer into our family. I suppose Sophie has been THE ONLY "baby" to us for the longest time so now both her territory and status are challenged by a tiny, helpless and noisy newborn. He has yet proven his worth (not much of a playmate or companion to her) and Papa & Mama seem to give entirely too much attention to him. And whenever she tried to get "close" and "personal" to him, Papa & Mama would quickly stop her (from squeezing his head or screaming in his ear for example).
Sophie is definitely trying hard to regain her power in our family. She would never allow herself to be excluded in any way. If you look hard enough, you can see her head on the right side of the picture (attempting to force her way into Papa's arms and Mama's line of camera vision.
In the end, we did take a nice picture of Papa and the kids. Of course, Sophie is naturally between Papa and Alfee (firming restrained by Papa's embrace). Meet the Loy members!
Sophie : " Why is Alfee wearing your shirt?" (to Papa)
Papa : " .... "
Mama : "... because Papa has no fashion sense?" (opps... my thoughts were too loud!)
