That's how B says "Brother"...Bruda!! Last weekend in the midst of all our company in town, shower, and Kyle's last weekend before he headed off to training again, we took B to a "Teddy Bear" camp at the hospital we'll be delivering Jackson at-Medical Center of Plano! Kyle was thrilled to go-ha! No, he was a trooper, and it meant alot to me and B!
There were about 15 kids ages 2-3 mostly awaiting the arrival of their siblings, a few kids already had their new brothers or sisters! A nurse from the hospital taught the kids how to hold the baby, feed the baby a bottle, gave a tour of the Labor and Delivery, the room Mommy will be staying in, and B's favorite part-snack time! I have to say Bryce was so good, and he is so social-where does he get that? HA! He sat and talked to all the kids around him while they ate their snacks, and it was hilarious to hear him socialize without him knowing we were listening! I'm such a proud mama!
My favorite activity they did was taking a toilet paper-holder and decorating it with stickers, their names, etc.. Then, the nurses had the kids put toys down the roll, and if the toys fit in there, explained they were not good toys for their brother or sister! B really liked this activity and when we got home, he explained it to us-yeah! I know he's gonna be such a big help with Jackson! Here is Bryce's latest song he made up for Jackson...
"Jackson, Jackson, I'm your Bruda"
"Jackson, Jackson, you're my pretty Bruda"!
Hilarious! B keeps asking me "Mama, when is Jackson coming out"??
I'm like, I WISH I KNEW!!! I am going to the Dr. Friday for a check-up to see if I'm dilated. I'm almost 36 weeks, so if I am it's ok now! I'm praying we can still make it to 37-38 weeks so Jackson's lungs are strong! I'll post afterwards!
The rest of the week is gonna fly by-hopefully! Tomorrow Hol is coming over to help me finish Jackson's room; Thurs I'm finally getting my hair highlighted-needs it badly; Thurs night-my first Stella & Dot Trunk show-sooo excited!! Fri-Dr. appt and lunch with Jules! I swear, I AM resting, I just allow myself 1 activity a day so I don't go completely crazy :)
XOXO,
Lindz
Kyle and B listening to the Nurse
Daddy and B "feeding baby Jackson"!!
B LOVED this bear at Labor & Delivery-I have a feeling he'll visit it again when we are at the hospital! He kept asking "if the bear is sick & needs medicine"!

B was amazed at the little newborn the Nurse showed all the kids!

What a great experience for B! I bet it really helps them understand what's going on. Hope you have a great week!
Jackson will be lucky to have a bruda like Bryce. Just wait until Bryce teaches Jackson how to shave like Kyle taught Chris...........oh, bruda..... Love you, Gabby
