Jaison's mom, Diana is one of my mom's best friends. I met their family when I was about 7 or 8 years old, and now Diana and her daughter Sharlene live just up the street from my parents house. Anywho, Jaison's girls were born on January 29, 2011. They are simply amazing. One of my very favorite things to do is go to Jaison's and play with Maya and Amelia. I told Jaison it's like "parenting class" to go visit them for a few hours. We give them baths and dress them, feed them, change diapers, play, and put them to sleep. It's great practice for me! Jaison is such a wonderful dad, and one of the strongest, most awesome people I know. He's been through a lot recently, and handles it with such grace. I highly respect Jaison and I'm glad to call him my pseudo-cousin.
Do you think they look the same? I have been around them and they don't look the same anymore to me. Of course, there are similarities but they are just so different. Especially their personalities. Maya is scooting around and pretty much crawling, but Amelia doesn't seem to have an interest in it. She is such a loving little girl. When I'm holding her in my arms trying to put her to sleep, she will look into my eyes and reach up and rub my cheek. They have both done this, and it makes me want to cry it's SO CUTE. I love them so much, I can't describe it!
The last time I was over there, I was drinking a glass of water with Maya in my lap and she grabbed the side of it and slobbered all over the cup. Jaison and I gave them sippy cups for the first time, and it was pretty hilarious. They couldn't quite figure out how they worked versus bottles, and were sucking on the bottoms of them. Here's a picture:
I absolutely love these little girls and I really look forward to seeing them grow up. The whole Naiker family (Diana, Jaison, Sharlene, Maya & Amelia) is so special to me and I am so lucky and blessed to have them as a part of my life.
