At playgroup yesterday one of the playgroup moms brought her 8-week old baby and her toddler to playgroup. While I was holding the baby Henry stood right next to my chair and stared at me. I asked him if he liked the baby and liked mommy holding the baby and he said "yes". Then for nearly five minutes he kept mumbling "Henry hold baby too". I kept telling him the baby was sleeping and to be quiet. Every time the baby would twitch Henry would start up again with "Henry hold baby. Henry hold baby too". The mom of the 8-week old heard him and said it would be fine. So, we washed Henry's hands and sat him in a small chair. He was so good with the baby. He was very serious and didn't move. After a few minutes the mom smelled a yucky diaper and told Henry that she needed to change the baby's diaper. Henry kept a tight little grip on the baby and started up with "No, Henry hold baby". We finally got the baby away but Henry threw a fit and we had to leave play group. He calmed down once we left the house b/c we saw a cat outside and then he wanted to pet the cat. It was really sweet to see Henry with a baby... here's a couple pictures...
