A month in the life of Jasmine Maya

Jasmine is embracing her role as big sister with enthusiasm. She gives Harry big hugs and kisses, often leaning right over him. Careful supervision is needed at all times, as indicated when Harry was left alone in the same room as Jasmine for about one minute. On returning, mummy found a raisin placed between his lips! Mummy had to explain that he was too young to eat raisins, although it was kind of Jasmine to want to share with him. Jasmine is fascinated with Harry's playpen. Initially she was not supposed to climb into it, but this was upsetting her greatly. Her parents reached a compromise with her and she now understands that she can go in the playpen, but only when Harry is not already in there. Jasmine seems happy with this arrangement.

Jasmine is happy to have Harry around most of the time. Just occasionally she states 'Harry in basket' to mummy or daddy, presumably when she thinks he has been having their attention for long enough. During some rather boisterous play (by Jasmine) in the ball pool, Harry headed his first ball!
