With the baby on the way we have been wondering how Sadie and Sylvester will take the new addition to the house. They have not really had any exposure to babies. Friday we offered to watch Ethan so his parents could go out and also to give the dogs a little baby exposure. At first they were nervous. Then they warmed up and wanted to sniff and lick him. By the end they could have cared less that he was there (especially Sylvester). Sadie is usually not much of a licker but baby slober must taste great because she wanted to lick his feet, hands, face, head, etc. It was a good first encounter for them and hopefully means they will do pretty well. Although I am sure if they will be a little jealous not always getting all the attention anymore.
Again, I am happy to send my toddler over any day to help you get your dogs ready and to find out if your house really is baby proofed.
ReplyDeleteYou can borrow Ethan again if you want. Those dogs really pooped him out. As soon as we left your house he just crashed in his car seat and for the next 7 hours. Thanks!!!
