Classes complete and in the home stretch...

Tonight we took our final childbirth education class. A milestone indeed, and one that we have been preparing for for so long, whether just thinking about this day or talking about it. Now we are in the home stretch. Realistically we probably have 4-5 more weeks until our little ones are here. During the class O was flipping around and giving sweet little kicks and punches.

There are 7 of them and they were long and tiring, But VERY informative. They unfortunately were videos of our midwife speaking the class into a camera. When I found this out, at the first class, I felt a little shafted. Can't we at least have a live person teaching us some of the most important material we'll need to know? The television is tiny and placed way up in the corner so at least some people have to crane their necks to see it and the A/C was out for several classes, blah blah. That is really my only complaint about New Life's services. MariMikel is so energetic and actually very funny that she made them tolerable and K did not seem to mind so I was able to put it aside and ended up taking copious notes.
