Victorian Everyday 4 - Life with a Baby

​Show & Tell

After Sena was old enough that her bed could be moved into the Nursery, Nyssa invited her friend and cousin over so she could show off her new baby sister....
Picture
Her friend and cousin were both the youngest in their families, so didn't have much experience with babies....
Picture
"She's the same size as some of my dolls!"
Picture
"She's actually wearing some of my doll's clothes! I gave them to my Mom so the baby could borrow them...."  ​
Picture
"I think she likes you!"

So In Love

Every time I peeked into the Victorian nursery, Iris was sitting there leaning over the cradle.....
Picture
..looking at, and playing with, baby Sena....
Picture

A Teddy for Sena

Iris was in the nursery with Sena...
Picture
....when Eric came in carrying two of his favourite teddies...
Picture
"I thought Sena might like this teddy of mine..."
Picture
"It's just her size..."
Picture
"That is so sweet of you!!"
Picture
"Here, come around to the other side, and you can show it to her...."
Picture
"I think she likes it!"
Picture
"I'm not surprised. It has always been one of your favourites too."
Picture
Eric let her grab it....
Picture
"She really likes it!"
Picture
Iris was touched by her son's generous gesture.....
Picture
...and asked if he'd like to hold her....
Picture
Picture
Picture
"I think I'm going to like being a big brother."
Picture

On the Patio

It was a lovely autumn day, perfect for taking baby Sena outside for her first outing....
Picture
Picture
"Are you sure she's warm enough?"
Picture
Picture
"I think she likes it out here.."

Going for a Walk

Getting ready to go for a walk takes so much longer when there's a baby in the family....
Picture
Baby Sena was distracting her parents....
Picture
Picture
Nyssa was getting a bit impatient...
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
Picture
"Are we anywhere near ready yet???"
Picture

Going for a Walk

Well, they were all finally ready to start on their walk....
Picture
Steve decided to push the carriage....
Picture
...so Iris would be free to walk with Eric and Nyssa....
Picture
..after all, they still needed plenty of her attention too....
Picture

Afternoon in the Nursery

Now that baby Sena's bed was in the nursery, the other children could only go in there to play when she was awake....
Picture
Picture

Cousins

While Nyssa and Elin were playing with their dolls....
Picture
....Holly wanted to spend time with her new baby cousin instead....
Picture
She knew she had to go back to the future soon, so she wanted to spend as much time with her new cousin as possible...
Picture

A Doll's Tea Party

Meanwhile, Nyssa and Elin were having a tea party for their dolls....
Picture
Elin was handing out some tiny candies...
Picture
Picture
While Nyssa poured the imaginary tea....
Picture
Picture
"My doll would like some tea too, please...."
Picture
Picture
"Here you go..."
