We went over in the evening to hang out. We found out fairly quickly that Mira likes to talk loud and baby Darcy is used to a quiet house. Try as we might Mira had simply lost her indoor voice. Which is odd considering how quiet her mom and dad are (note intended sarcasm here). But as soon as Mira saw baby Darcy she just screamed, &#8220;I take her. Baby Darcy! I take her!&#8221; So, we sat baby Darcy down on Mira&#8217;s lap. Here&#8217;s how it unfolded:<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe class='youtube-player' type='text\/html' width='584' height='329' src='https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nt-rCaD9doY?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;autohide=2&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;wmode=transparent' allowfullscreen='true' style='border:0;'><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n<p>You&#8217;ll notice that we keep telling Mira to be gentle.

Mira decided it was time to make some dinner and went into the kitchen and demanded that she be allowed to cook carrots in the stove for 3 minutes. Don&#8217;t believe me.
