Baby Basics Brunch

We attended our first baby class on Saturday. It was called the Baby Basics Brunch. As you might guess, they provided us with bagels, pastries, eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, assorted juices and hot drinks. What better way to a pregnant woman's heart! The four hour class was taught by two women who have a background in nursing. While both were realistic, they had two different styles on baby care. It was nice to have both perspectives represented equally. They offered a lot of helpful hints about things like bathing, changing diapers, and general baby care. The class also included a question and answer session with a Pediatrician and a demonstration on the correct way to install a carseat. I think we both came away feeling more confident and knowing a little more than we did before. If nothing else, we were exposed to the wide variety of couples who will also be parents soon...including the guy who seemed obsessed with Shaken Baby Syndrome!

While it was fresh in our minds, Rob installed the carseat on Sunday. He did a great job. That sucker's not going anywhere! An updated belly shot is below.
