The new baby is coming in just a few short months and Paxton is starting to get curious and ask lots of questions...the typical "How did the baby get in there?" or" How is he getting out?" Also lots of questions about the hospital since we drive by it everyday on our way home. We found out that the hospital was doing a Teddy Bear Clinic for kids to teach them about all the different area's of the hospital and I thought this would be a perfect opportunity to get the boys a little bit prepared for our newest little man to get here!
Paxton brought his monkey with him to take through the clinic! The first stop was to Labor and Delivery where "George" was given and birth certificate, a baby T-shirt, and weighted and measured! It was fun to be able to show the boys where mom would be staying when the baby came and the beds that the baby would be sleeping in and all of that fun stuff!
We didn't bring an animal for Tegan (but we should have) so he was just along for the ride!
Next we went to same day surgery where Paxton had to get George ready with his mask and hat!
Paxton gave him shot and then casted the owie on George's tail!
Next we were off to x-ray...we learned about a bear who swallowed a penny and why we shouldn't put things other than food in our mouth! Then Paxton got to x-ray George to make sure he hadn't swallowed anything he wasn't supposed to!
Unfortunately we had to end our tour at x-ray so that Paxton could get to his last soccer game...we missed about 3 stops including the ambulance and life flight but had a great time anyway!
Paxton had a great time and is still talking about this fun experience!
Hopefully when the baby comes they will be a little bit more prepared!
