Our live in babysitter

My brother and his family live just around the corner from us. They have a 15 month old daughter named Taryn. Taryn loves taking care of Jack. She tries to feed him his bottle and also give him snacks. Jack could care less who feeds him as long as it gets in his tummy. Generally when Taryn tries to feed him the milk ends up all over his clothes as well as hers. Whenever I take the bottle away from Taryn she tries to make sure I am not watching and swiftly grabs it and runs to stick it in Jack's mouth. Many times we will let Taryn give Jack a little treat, and the next thing we know Jack has five of them in his mouth.

Even if the bottle has nothing in it, Taryn will still stick it in Jacks mouth. They both love each other. It is so fun to see them interact.

Whenever Jack sees Taryn he gets a huge smile on his face and starts panting like a dog. Taryn will generally run to Jack and give him pat pats! There is never a dull moment when they are together. Taryn many times will get into things she is not supposed and run and give them to jack. When we catch her she acts as if it was not her that gave it to Jack. Of course Jack will stick it in his mouth.

Taryn will generally share with Jack, but sometimes she is a tease, and Jack will let her know.
