Today at work, Henry the mail guy brought me my daily FedEx packages and other mail items to my office. Only one of the packages came from a book distributor and I assumed that some advertising agency was sending me their latest cool sample to allure me to use their agency. No! Much better! My sweet Ryan had bought me a mommy book and shipped it to my office to surprise me! How great!

The book is called The Moms on Call: Guide to Basic Baby Care. I read the first 45 pages on my lunch break today and I’m loving it – what a great book packed with simple, practical advice from 2 mommy’s that are also pediatric nurses. Ryan said he heard about the book during a Christian radio talk show he caught on his drive to work recently. The book also comes with an instructional DVD that shows the nurses demonstrating diapering, massaging tear ducts, taking a rectal temperature, nail clipping, nasal suctioning, bath time routine, swaddling, bedtime routine and covers the 3-day rule. I am only a little ways in to the book, but I anticipate using it a lot and reccommending it to others.

Thanks for the great book babe!
