The Saniger's: Siblings Class and Pizza

I know what your thinking...why in the world would my kids need to go to a siblings class they are already pros at it! Well, it was this class offered by the hospital that will be delivering my baby and it was free. Plus they got some neat stuff as well. They started out talking about what babies eat and that we don't feed them M&M's or Skittles. And how to hold the baby and that they need to get mom or dad when the baby is crying and not hold him by his toes. They learned about the soft spot and that you don't touch the babies head. They gave all the kids a tour of the labor floor and C-Section rooms. And let them know where mom would be. They also were able to see a set of little girl twins that had been born and their umbilical cords. The kids really enjoyed it. And it was fun for me also since they are remodeling the whole floor. I got to see all the new labor rooms and postpartum rooms. These ones now have new showers (which were needed) and couches that fold out into beds for daddy! And flat screens in every room! The kids got a bag after the class was over. It was one of the lunch cooler type that they can put snacks in for when they are waiting for baby, some coloring pages and crayons, a certificate saying they took the class, a monkey stuffed animal with a shirt that said ' I'm a big brother/sister!', a card that they can get all the stats of baby and foot printed. They also received all this stuff in their bags. The kids are really enjoying playing with them.

Here is Dr. Andrew and Dr. Emma.

And we can't forget Dr. Paisley. She saw that Emma and Andrew were playing and she needed in on it.

Close up of Emma. It was almost bedtime, can you tell?

I had bought some latex gloves so I could work with some jalapenos and James had given Andrew a set earlier that day. It was Andrew who had to put them on because that's what doctors use. He's so cute. And since then has been saying that he wants to be a doctor.

Last night I decided it would be fun to make pizzas with the kids. They so enjoyed it. I put the cheese on and they did the rest. It was a huge hit. And they ate every bit of it. Even the Canadian bacon and pepperoni. I wasn't sure they would eat the meat, but I was pleasantly surprised. Here's a picture of us with the finished pizzas. Emma looks a little dazed, but it was the best picture we were able to get.
