The Happiest Baby on The Block!

While checking my peeps' blogs I came across a post My Newborn "Must" Haves! I found it really insightful and I enjoyed reading advice from real mother working through all the changes a newborn can bring. One of the things she recommended was swaddling, which is of the 5 S's of from The Happiest Baby on The Block. I was intrigued so I did some research on the Internet (the site she recommended and youtube). I quickly became interested and wanted to read the book. However, I have a ton of baby books to read through and I still have school work to complete. I decided I would try to hunt in down after the graduation.

Well, last Friday we headed to Angleton for a fun fall weekend full of football, county fair exhibits and church! Steven's mother works as a pharmacist and, it being flu season, she gives a lot of flu shots! While working with a young pregnant customer, Cathy shared about how she will soon be a Grandmother (yah!!!!). Later in the day the customer returned with books for us! Cathy brought them home and gave them to us this weekend.

I was amazed to see that "The Happiest Baby on The Block" was one of them! So blessed by the Lord! I tried not to read it until after graduation... I even put it on the back room bookshelf... However, I cracked it open this morning. I had a hard day of school yesterday and needed to relax a bit on the bus. I'm glad I did... it's so enjoyable. I will probably re-read it next spring... but it one book that doesn't have crazy pregnancy pictures so I don't feel bad about reading it in public.

Anyway, I just wanted to share about a little unexpected blessing! I will let you all know how it works out when we have our little one. Have a great week!!!
