After months of knowing that they were going to have a new baby brother sometime after school started in the fall …
And weeks of asking when we’d be going to the hospital to get that new baby brother …
The four big boys finally got to meet Baby Bobby! A couple of the boys had runny noses, so the masks were a reminder to not spread their germs.
They came up to the hospital for a visit and ooo’d and ahhh’d over Bobby … for all of 5 minutes. Then the curtain, rubber gloves, TV, and just about everything else in the room seemed more interesting. At least we had those 5 minutes to get some cute pictures …
Ricky did a good job of holding Bobby without us worrying too much about the baby being dropped. Billy held on really tight …
Rusty was excited to hold the baby, but wasn’t quite sure how to do it. Bobby was a bit bigger than the doll he’d been practicing with. Even if it was slightly awkward, Rusty was THRILLED to finally be holding that real live baby!
And then our previous baby held the new baby. Look how grown-up Tommy is! He is in love with this baby, too. He wants to know where Bobby is all day long.
I have 5 boys! FIVE!!! Who would’ve thunk?!
