Team A'Hearn

Five classes down, two to go! It’s been a learning blitz for us over the past few months as we prepare for the new arrival in February. We’ve done “Prenatal I” and “Prenatal II” through Kaiser, “Infant CPR and First Aid” and “Breastfeeding” through Inova, and Lamaze. Basically, we have all this great information that we’ll immediately forget when the first contraction hits and panic sets in. Regardless, tonight is our hospital tour so we’ll know where to go for the big day, and January is the final “Prenatal III” class where I’ll learn stuff like this (from this book). I still need to assemble the crib, too – thank God for the holiday break!

We’re making slow and steady progress getting the house (and our lives!) ready for February. With the help of some very generous friends we moved my home office to the basement and have cleared out the new baby room so we (read: I) can paint and furnish. In addition, for our distant friends and relatives I have finally gotten around to setting up Skype on the home computer to share all those fun baby moments in a few months. If you’d like to connect, send me an email (or check my Facebook page) for my username.
