First time for everything...

Obviously a new born kid brings with it new experiences.  I mentally prepared myself the best I could for many standard things like late-night feedings, midnight diapers runs, and carrying a diaper bag through the mall.  However, there are already several things which I've never even considered I would be a part of...

3 am swaddling practice on a stuffed animal.  This was after 3 straight hours of Evan wailing on our first night home and I realized I have no idea how to swaddle.

  2. The swaddled doll is Classic Paulie...did you draw it out on a napkin/graph paper first?

  3. There was no time for a sketch. I did lay out three other stuffed animals so I could better approximate accurate length and width.
