We have a pet dog Snowy, who was very much interested in meeting the babies. He couldn't help jumping near the crib to have a sneak peek of them. When they cry or make sounds, he was sure to notify me. Slowly, we introduced him to the babies.
Snowy was so curious and astonished to see the tiny arms and legs moving and sniffed them from top to bottom. He must have known that the new arrivals have become our part of the family. Since then, he acts like a bodyguard for them and wouldn't let any strangers touch the babies or even talk to them :-)
I understood that there's something beyond his 5 senses that we could actually imagine. He was getting used to all kinds of smells like creams, diapers, bottles, clothes, spit-ups etc...
Kavya & Oviya had their chords fell off in the next 2 to 3 weeks. And, yes they had their adventurous first official baths after that ;-). They were amused to have the warm splash of water over their bodies. As a first timer, giving bath was challenging coz their heads were not stable and their whole body was too fragile. When I place them wrapped after bath, Snowy always stays nearby. He watches me apply moisturizer & wear them diaper & dresses.
