Always Come Prepared

Always come prepared.  The minute we become parents this becomes our new motto.  Always come prepared. With first babies, we are over-prepared most of the time.  The diaper bag is full.  Every possible scenario is considered and all necessary items are stowed away in the over-sized bag should we meet with any of those scenarios. …
