Meeting Baby Sis for the First Time

First family photo - it was so amazing to all be in the same room for once,
let alone the same city (even if it was just for 30 seconds :))
We have been hesitant to introduce Sawyer to June because we have to make sure he does not push any buttons, grab cords or run around like a wild man. That is just a lot to ask of a two-year-old, and we want his first encounters with his baby sister to be as positive as possible. His first visit lasted all of 30 seconds, and when we come visit June, we are there for several hours.

My parents happened to be in the area with Sawyer, so we thought we would give it a try since we had someone to take him home right away. After a two minute scrub (where we each grabbed an arm and sang about bubbles the entire time) and bribing him to put on a mask, we went to see his baby sis. (I'm sure it was very entertaining for everyone at the front desk :))

Like I said before, it lasted all of 30 seconds but he did point out his sister's "ba" (pacifier) and told her "bye-bye June". It was a sweet moment, and we cannot wait to have these times at home!

Sawyer was ready to get the mask off so he told his sister "bye-bye June"
