So, JF and I spent this weekend watching a lot of parenting DVDs. It was quite an experience. Now, we learned a lot from these videos. It was very helpful. I am so glad that we watched them. But I have to say, the woman who did the majority of the talking in the seminars made me almost insane!!! Her voice was as grating to me as nails down the chalkboard. I wanted to run from the room. JF was feeling much the same way. We really had to take a deep breath and steel ourselves before each module. Yikes! And, in the essence of full disclosure, we were out celebrating our friend Vanessa's birthday until WAY TOO LATE last night. It did not make anything easier. As I said, we do feel much better off for watching them. It was absolutely worth it. But it was a LONG weekend.
I had been terrified of the tests that accompany the seminars, but it turned out that was baseless. Although we only have the results of the first three tests we took, we got 100% on those three, so I am not that nervous about our last score. We took notes and I think we got it. It is a relief that it is over. Another thing crossed off the list. YAY!! Another step closer to our baby:o)

Congratulations on having those seminars done!!!!
I am so totally with you on that woman's voice. It was really hard to listen to.
Yeah, I know what you mean....my mom (my daughter's future primary caregiver), normally very agreeable in what I ask her to do/help me with, refused to watch more than 5 minutes of them once she heard her voice. But YOU MADE IT THROUGH!!!!
Of course you got 100%!! So glad to hear that this part is over for you guys! Hearing your review gave us mixed feelings. On the one hand, I am happy to hear that the tests are not too much. On the other hand, can't wait to hear nails on a chalkboard for 10 hours!! YAY! But, if you can do it, and other can do it, then we can too!
Happy for you both-
Jenna
