Grandparent classes

So yeah we are going to be Grandparents come January 2014 to little Sam -- so along with this came a Grandparent class... it was 3 hours of info on whats changed since we had our kids... Now yes it was full of information it was good information I went with an open mind and heart but REALLY???? !!!

Unless WE are breastfeeding little Sam I don't think we needed the 1 hour spent on the topic...lol  Breast is BEST I got it ---except she covered nothing about if Breastfeeding doesn't work out what then?? I guess we can figure out the bottle on our own even though Breastfeeding has been around since EVE--

And I suppose if I hadn't spent my life mothering my own children and lots of other peoples children I can see how a class like this could be helpful.

 And of course I REALLY can't imagine any of our kids asking us to be on the "Delivery Team" lol being in the room - not that I wouldn't be willing I just think they are all private enough to not want that show!! At least that's what Scott is hoping!!! LOL

Gotta lay babies on their backs yup I get it and nothing in the crib just baby and mattress I wanted to raise my hand and ask if a sheet was ok...I refrained  See i am learning the next rule of order is ....

Basically as Grandparents we are to keep our Mouths shut! I get that and frankly that's great advice! I have been learning thru these last few years how to do just that . How to let go of my babies! I am sure there are going to be challenges thru these next years with Grandkids But frankly we are looking forward to the fun
times once again.
And after the big breastfeed review... ummm glad I don't have to relive THAT!!! LOL

When it is all said and done she Diane the instructer said our kids get all the parenting info in class but of course they won't retain any of it - they will have to learn it all as we did on the learn as you go program and thats I suppose where we come in - those phone calls on what should we do if he won't stop crying --- Well DUH You call Grandma coz she won't care she can rock him till the sun comes up--- :)
