So, when Sarah bought her ticket to come here, she said, "I don't do well with crying". Well, most people would say that since most people don't like to hear a baby cry. Boy, she wasn't kidding! I picked her up from the airport and she got in the back seat with Finny. We were just driving off when she asked how to make him laugh. I told her that I just do something surprising a few times and then he catches on that it's a game and he will laugh. So, Sarah starts saying "Boo" in his face. Well after the second time, he got 'the lip' and the tears started pooling in his eyes. I laughed and told Sarah that he was probably just hungry. Well, a few seconds later, he starts crying and I look in the rear view mirror and see Sarah laughing with me...at least that's what I thought she was doing. We hadn't even gotten out of the airport parking lot and there they both were in the backseat crying together. And I don't mean Sarah just got a sad look on her face. I mean the tears were rolling down her face before they were rolling down Finny's face. I've heard of sympathy, but this goes above and beyond anything that I've ever seen before. She just sat there sobbing saying, "I didn't want to make him cry". The only thing I could think was boy, this is going to be a long 4 days. Turns out, Sarah only cries with babies when they're in the car...whew!

Sarah acting like Finny. I know I'm partial, but I think Finny has a much cuter face here.
More of that cute face. He was so tired after the long day that he fell asleep on our walk and Sarah ended up carrying him home.

Out to lunch with Amy (John and Katy).
