Backdoor Roth Conversion

How do I handle the following situation:
Earlier in 2023, I did a backdoor roth conversion from traditional IRA for the prior year (2022) which was $6k.

 

Later in 2023, I did a backdoor roth conversion from traditional IRA for the current year (2023) which was $6.5k.

 

My 1099 R for my traditional IRA then shows 12.5k. 

How can I correctly enter this + record it as a backdoor roth conversion. I've tried adding the 1099 -R form, but my federal taxes are going up each time so I believe I am doing something incorrectly.

 

Thank you!
