Yesterday Lily went to her Big Sibling Class at the hospital where we are delivering. It was a very cute program. The kids got to watch a silly big sibling video, learn how to hold the baby and talk about some of the things that babies do and how they can help. We then took a tour of the recovery rooms where they will come to see the babies for the first time.

Lily has had no shortage of practice holding baby dolls; we'll see how she does with the real thing!

At the class, Lily traced her hand and compared it to the
handprint of a baby to see how much she has grown. Also, she got a Big Sibling Certificate upon graduation from the class, so she's ready to go!

Here Lily is showing off her nifty big sibling backpack. We will be filling this with useful things for her trip to visit the baby in the hospital.
