I can’t tell you how many books that Erin and I read to get us ready for the baby. I tried to get as much advise as I could from other parents, both you and old.  There is, however, no substitute for actually going through the experience for oneself.  Now that we have had some experience under our belt, well a month’s worth at least, I have some advise for any expecting parents out there, and it has nothing to do with raising your child…well not directly.

My advice is when the baby is asleep, spend time with your spouse.  It is so easy to forget that the two of you are a couple and still need each other.  It will make you better parents.
