Big Sister "in training"!

Yesterday was super special. I signed Reilly up for a the "Sibling Tour/Class" at the hospital. She and I headed down for her class and showed up to find out that she was only one of two children signed up!! And the other was a little girl, who was also named Rileigh. Too funny. The class started out with a short video showing a newborn baby who had just come home from the hospital. Then the teacher had the girls choose a baby doll and taught them how to swaddle, hold the baby in their elbow to protect the head/neck, and diapering. Reilly has had lots of practice with diapering since Shawn got her a pack of diapers for her baby dolls so she just flew right through that part!!





After the classroom stuff, we headed out for a tour so Reilly could see the special room that mommy would be in with all the fancy equipment. By far, the best part of the entire class was actually getting to go by the nursery and seeing all the sweet sweet babies. Ah, so precious and SO hard to believe that I will back there in no time!!

After the tour, the girls were presented with a packet of fun stuff and a "big sister" certificate. Reilly said it was so much fun and she loved every part of it :)
