Once we got home from vacation, I started to really feel like I needed to get a few of my ducks in a row to have this baby. Vacation was on the calendar all summer and I kept thinking "I"ll take care of it after vacation...". Well, now it's "after vacation" and that means it's almost time to have a baby!
I called the hospital this morning to find out about the kids doing a tour of the hospital nursery and a sibling class. The nurse on the phone acted like I should have called months ago (oops!) but said they had a class that night if we could make it. I said yes and called David to tell him to be home right on time!
It was a really cute class for siblings. Went over alot of the baby basics - wash your hands, don't pick up the baby without permission, what to expect from your baby brother/sister, etc. The boys were horrified and embarrassed when the video MENTIONED breastfeeding :). Pretty funny. Their favorite part though was getting to put on their "scrubs" for the hospital tour!
Pretty cute aren't they? : )
Then the nurse gave them all a baby and taught them how to swaddle them :) It was a good refresher for David and me too!
I guess we're ready now! :)

Wow that's a fun idea. I wonder if our hospital does classes for siblings.
