Introduction
Jo: "Hi, T.K., how are you, sweetie?"

Sylvia: "He's just a little shy."

[We see T.K.'s Disney nursery]

Observation Begins
Corey: "I feel left out because Mom and Dad spend a lot of time with my new baby brother T.K., and I don't even know what Spina bifida means."

Baby Log
Jo: "Today, I'll introduce the Baby Log. You can mark what time you bottle-fed T.K., what time he went to see the doctor and what time he took a nap."

Sylvia: "Wonderful."

The bad kids vs. the Babysitter
Jo: Mom and Dad took baby T.K. back to see the pediatrician regarding his condition.

The bad kids turn over new leaves
Jessie: I am sorry I was jealous of you TK
