baby 101

so this past tues heath &i had our first (of 6) "birthing & parenting" classes... and let me tell you.... THISis going to be an experience!!

first of all, we might just be the most normal couple there. i try not to judge people, but seriously, there was some weird stuff going on!

but about the class. i learned a lot but both of us almost got sick! we didnt enjoy (yet benefitted from) the birthing video, epidural (sp?) talk & the fact that one can "tear" down there. EEK!

i have always thought i would do an epidural, but now im not sure. i think what im giong to do is go in open minded. i guess its good to try to make it to 5cm+ b4 getting the epidural if possible. and if i can do that, i will consider that a victory! i just really hope the birth goes as well (knock on wood) as my pregnancy has so far.

this is kind of fun: some of heath & my "rep friends" are going to throw us a baby shower. not sure when yet, but that will be a lot of fun!!!! speaking of rep peeps... ive been doing the MnACC fairs all week. they've been fun, meeting new people & hanging w/ old! its been a good time.... i have tomorrow then the same fairs mon-wed before the holiday!

we will head to brewster for wed afternoon-fri morn then be back here. my parents will come fri afternoon until sun morning. it'll be nice to see both sides of the family. i will miss my brothers, but, i guess that's just the way its gotta be...... both are working!

anyway, not much else to say. im starving and am most likely going to get some icecream ;) yummmmmm... just in time for a new episode of "the office" :)
