Breastfeeding class...check!

This morning, Daddy Jarbs and I went to a breastfeeding class offered by Juliana from Birth-N-Babies. The class was held at Sibley Hospital so we were able to do our practice drive again and this time, we got to actually go inside the hospital. The class was very informative. Interestingly, about 80% of the pregnant women in the class have their husbands with them. I believe it is important for the husbands to be knowledgeable in what breastfeeding entails so they can help support the mom in any way they can. Daddy Jarbs paid close attention during class and asked good questions :-).
After the class, Daddy Jarbs and I walked around the hospital to get ourselves familiarized . We saw where the cafeteria is and where the vending machines are. Daddy Jarbs said they have a microwave oven there too (I didn't see). We were joking that perhaps we can bring chicken adobo, heat it up in there and have the whole hospital stink up lol! We also went up to the labor and delivery floor and saw where the waiting area is. All in all, we like the hospital. It is clean, not crowded and doesn't look scary. We'll be back there again for our Baby Care class which is in about 3 weeks. 

On our way home, I started craving for chicken. I haven't had one in a while. I was okay with getting some from KFC but Daddy Jarbs insisted we look for a soul food restaurant along the H St. corridor Well, we did not find one. We ended up driving back to Ray's The Steaks in Anacostia and got fried chicken to go :-). Their chicken was yummy! It was smoked first before it was fried so it was very flavorful :-).
