Practice with Baby

Rémy just loves this doll that she drags around. The past month or so we've been doing all kinds of things with the baby. We take the baby on walks in the doll stroller, we change the baby's diaper, we give the baby a pacifier or bottle. Sometimes we change the baby's clothes and put on socks and shoes. We give the baby hugs and mama and daddy give the baby kisses. When it's nap time we take the baby and put him in Ben's crib and put a blanket on him. Rémy's never been a very affectionate baby...not much for cuddling or kisses, so we're having to train her, in a sense, to be more affectionate. Anyway, after working with her for about a month of all of us taking turns trying to kiss the baby she is finally starting to warm up to the idea. She even gave me a kiss on the cheek today! Here's a video that we caught the first night she started giving kisses....
