1st baby class!

Today was our 1st baby class - "The First Three Months". Was long but we learned a lot! We practiced changing diapers and swaddling on fake babies. We had to bring our own. So a few weeks ago my buddy Barb lent me this doll that she designed baby clothes for. Its likes one of those dolls that crazy old ladies collect - its so real looking i thought it would kill us in our sleep! But its been great for practice. We practice the "pass offs" and stuff around the house. I took the dress off it and put it in Jack clothes. The doll was really helpful today. We learned a lot about safety and what we actually need vs what if out on the market.

Next Thursday is my "Nursing Class" - haha! Today, we watched a video that showed some of that (plus learned high level about it today) and boy was it akward! Boobies! Mom is coming with me to that class - its going to be interesting.
