The baby has figured it out. He knows where the milk comes from and when he doesn't get it fast enough he starts batting for it. For several days now he's started pulling at my shirt, or at my bra or batted his little arm at me to hurry up and serve him his meal. I can't help but laugh and tell him to calm down. Of course his motor skills will only improve and if memory serves me, Gusi would yank my shirt away or would throw his head back "into position" refusing to budge until served, so I expect something similar to happen with the baby.
As for Gusi, these days we are reading Beatrix Potter. I got the complete edition of her works for the boys. Tonight we read the Tale of Peter Rabbit and the Tale of Benjamin Bunny. Gusi just gobbled them up. They are the perfect combination of short prose and drawings. Of course, there was a bit of fascination with the scarecrow as well as with the naughtiness of the main characters. Why are they naughty Mami? Good question. Not quite sure how to answer why children are naughty or why people are bad. Maybe Beatrix's other tales will point me in the right direction.
