Dad!jacob going w/us to baby girls 1st doctor appointment </3 she has to get some shots and we tell jacob to hold to hold her because she’s such a daddy’s girl and is more relaxed with him. But time the doctor comes in with the shots jacob is literally about to cry because he can tell babygirl is in distress from being in a unknown room with a unknown person with a needle 😭

Jacob is in a bad anxious mood the whole day and we have to give him a peptalk once we get to the parking garage because we know baby girl is gonna pick up on what her daddy's feeling and not be as distracted and relaxed with him. "It'll take 5 minutes and then we can go get breakfast and go on a walk.... She'll be fine Jake, I promise."

And she starts crying when they have to undress her to weigh her because she's cold and THAT'S when jacob gets misty eyed first and we give him a side hug and rub his back and we're like "baby, it's no different than her distaste for bathtime, she's okay." And he reaches out to let her hold his finger and of course she's fine again because she can see her daddy.

But once they put us in a room to wait for the nurse, Jacob is up and pacing with baby girl cuddled into his chest and just softly talking to her because if he talks, he won't be as anxious and distracts himself.

Jacob is spinning in the spinny stool to not think about what's about to happen and that's when the nurse comes in holding the injections and all the fun stops and Jacob can barely look at the nurse and she's very friendly and goes slow because she knows the parents can get emotional. She expects it to be us and not the big buff dude in the corner that can hardly say hello to her without crying.

"I figured I'm about to make you guys cry, so I brought tissues..." She offers them to us but we immediately push them over to Jacob who grabs one and smooshes it into his fist to fidget with. "Okay, I'm about to get her really mad at me. Do either of you need to leave the room while I do this so you don't hear her cry?" We see Jacob eye the door and we block the door. "No, Jake, she's calmer with you. She'll be fine baby." The nurse nods. "She'll be upset at the initial poke but as soon as you pick her up, she'll be fine."

While the nurse is about to poke the bubba, Jacob looks like he's about to vomit and we come over and hold his hand tight and rub his back a bit and we give him a kiss and we're like "hey, you're making this SO much worse than it is. Relaaaaaaax"

Just like she said, babygirl shrieks but as soon Jacob bounces her a bit and turns her around in his hold so that she can snuggle back into his chest, she significantly calms down and while Jacob calms baby girl, we calm HIM and just let them both cry for a minute. And the nurse comes back and even gives JACOB a "feel better" sticker too because that experience was painful for him as well as bubba.

Imagine cg!Jerry panics after he can't find little!e ANYWHERE but e's just asleep under a bed for whatever reason- just tiredly suckling away at his bottle while he hugs a plushie he named after Jerry.

YES !! This man would cry RIVERS of tears once he thinks that E somehow got out and he's lost somewhere outside but he searches every room ONE LAST TIME And he tries to tune his ears in super well and just then E yawned and Jerry's like "oh thank fuck!" and he pulls E out and E startles awake and he's super confused but Jer is holding onto him super tight bc he needs that relieved cuddle

also imagine if lamar is like "can you teach me the basic things i need to know for e?" bc he notices e sometimes signs at lamar or lamar just wants to take better care of e when he's babysitting

"Teach me some of those hand signals you use with E?" Lamar asks as you are feeding E in his highchair. "I want to be able to see what he's saying when he's nonverbal. That way I can help you more." You nod, smiling. "Yeah sure. Baby, can you show Lamar 'I love you'?" He shows Lamar the hand signal for I LOVE You, his hands sticky with baby food all over them. "I love you too buddy." Lamar says, committing the sign to memory. "Can you show Lamar 'eat' buddy?" Elvis puts his hands in a triangle shape toward his mouth. "Eat Lamaw, Eat!" You and Lamar clapped. "Good job buddy!" You exclaimed. "What about 'potty?'" This wasn't a sign, more just pointing to his diaper. "Yeah, that's more self explanatory isn't it?" Elvis just shrugs making you and Lamar laugh.

"We don't use very many. But that's pretty much it. The rest are pretty self explanatory." Lamar nods. "Is there anything else I need to know to take care of him?" You shrug. "He has big emotions. If he wants you to know he feels something, he lets you know. If he's mad, he'll literally roar at you. He'll get in your face and scream. If you can't figure out what he wants, always ask him to point. If all else fails, pointing works." Lamar nods. "I'm sure I'll have more questions later. And I can always ask Jer for help." You nod. "Right."
