Parenting class

I just signed Matt and I up for a parenting class offered by the local hospital on 7/22.  Infant CPR and Taking Care of Baby.  So excited!  In a way, I feel like it is similar to the excitment someone would get about going back to school after working for a while.  When you are first in college, you don't get excited about classes.  But after being in the 'real world' for awhile, you get pumped to try another round of school.  If we had gotten pregnant and done the normal thing, I don't know if we'd even think to take a parenting class.  But because we have been waiting so long to be parents, this feels like a real step, and so we are excited!  (Maybe me more so than Matt!  haha)

Other weekend goals:  Hang flyers and/or business cards on area bulletin boards... possibly shop for the nursery (!!!!!!!!!!).... and hit up a pool, it is HOT out!

Matt's sister has graciously been offering tips on what we should buy first, what we'll need in those first few weeks, what brands are good, etc.  Anyone else have suggestions?  Leave a comment below or shoot us an email!
