T-minus 2 months and counting

Since today is October 24th and Baby Bagel is due on December 24th, we officially have two months left - YIKES! 

As part of our baby preparations we went on a tour of the hospital yesterday.   We were one of three couples on the tour and the nurse was really nice.  Since it was only a one-afternoon class, there was a LOT of information crammed into three hours.  Jeremy earned major dad-to-be points for being one of the better-behaved husbands on the tour.  He wasn't even the one who asked if the TVs in the room got cable :)  [but the answer is yes, they do get cable, no football needs to be missed during the birth of our child should she choose to arrive during the playoffs].

One of the best things about our hospital is that it is certified as a baby friendly hospital.  That means that all of the nurses have some kind of breastfeeding training.  You get to stay in the same (private) room the whole time you are there (labor through recovery) and the baby stays with you as well.  It was nice to get a chance to check everything out now as opposed to waiting until we're in labor.  We even got to see a real-live baby that had just been born.  I can't say that we really feel ready yet, but at least we know where to park when we get to the hospital :)
