Big sister class...check!

If Harper wasn't ready before, she's definitely ready now. I remembered doing a big sister class before Leah was born, so I looked it up and Baylor had one. We went this morning, and it was so fun. The nurse let them each pick out a baby, and Harper picked the only African American baby. Clearly with the love I still have for Taylor, it about sent me over the edge. It might have not been intentional on her part. But she still loves looking at pictures of T, so I think it was on purpose.

They did several activities, like testing different toys based on their size for safety, changing a diaper, and swaddling their baby. They watched a video and then went on a tour of labor and delivery, the outside of the nicu, and the postpartum floor. Harper had a great time on the tour, carrying her baby everywhere with her! I can't wait to see her as a big sister....she's going to be fabulous!
