One of the big questions prior to Lydia's arrival was how Rowan would feel about his new sibling. Both Angela and I were thinking he would be none too fond of this new sink for his parent's time and attention. Is it possible that he might start punching Lydia as most older siblings are inclined to do? Yes, we're talking about your Scott and Adam.
Rowan was indeed unsure about Lydia and did have a mighty cry when he saw Mommy feeding her, but since then he's started to warm up to his little sister. We were able to get them together for this photo shoot where Rowan hugged and kissed her. He has also attempted to give her a pacifier, offered her cheese, and said "Bye Bye Lydia" on the way to bed. With this successful start we will start working on Rowan's abilities to change her diaper, give baths, and do laundry. We're looking forward to how these two grow up together and hope that the fact is being documented on the blog won't give them a complex.
