Big Brother Classes

We took Grant to Big Brother classes at the hospital. He was so excited to see where Sarah will be born and to learn about being a big brother. I just hope this continues after the baby is born!!

Here he is before we left to go to class. Can you tell he is excited?


The first thing they did is make a picture frame for the baby. I printed the first picture so it would be from the day the frame was made.


Part of the class is reading books about being a big brother and talking about things they will see at the hospital. Grant really enjoyed the group activities.



One of the things they showed them was the measuring tape used to measure the baby. They then measured each kiddos head. Grant was so proud that his head was the biggest!! LOL



Another thing they showed them was how to swaddle a baby. Here he is in his Doctor "stuff" holding the swaddled baby. Too cute!!!


Part of the class is touring the hospital and seeing the rooms. Here he is in the labor room. He thought it was cool that the bed moved up and down!



Halfway through the hospital tour Grant decided the vending machines were far more interesting. Daddy then had to help Grant finish the tour!


At the end of the class he was given a certificate for being a great big brother!!
