How To Be A Parent

As future first-time parents, it's fair to say that Shep and I don't really know exactly what we're in for.  Sure, we've both been around children before, but neither of us have ever been 100% responsible for the safety and care of a newborn!  We're planning to take a class at our hospital on basic newborn care, read some infant care books & watch some videos.  People say that many parenting skills are common sense, and I'm hoping that's true, but we want to be as prepared as possible.  I'm sure we'll both make some mistakes while we're learning our new role, but hopefully it won't be anything too bad!

Here's a funny "how to" site I came across and wanted to share:  http://funkypickens.com/how-to-be-a-parent/

My favorites are:

I was cracking up at the bottle testing one, because I was picturing my loving hubby easily making that mistake!  Even funnier is that when I showed Shep the photo his response was: "I would totally do that".  Do I know that man or what?!  ;)
