Mom's lap is pretty full most evenings, with Silas and Sobin both claiming their space (yes, that's me beneath the cat, baby, blankets and pillow). A lot of people have asked how Sobin has adapted to life with baby. He was, after all, the creature we lavished the most attention on, pre-baby. His first contact with Silas was to take a quick sniff, then turn up his nose and walk away. He wasn't particularly happy, and seemed to intuit that life was going to be different from now on. This is still largely his reaction, though you can see he's now willing to sit in close proximity (as long as he doesn't actually have to touch the baby). The biggest thing is that he shows no aggressive tendencies towards Silas, so perhaps some day, they can be friends. For now, his policy of ignoring Silas works for us.
