Takeo's Natural Childbirth Class
Previous    Next     Home

This is the third gathering of our Natural Childbirth class (held at Newton-Wellesley before our babies were born). We had our best attendance yet - 8 out of 9 families made it out!

And once again if you shouted "Michael" in a stern voice, you were guaranteed that up to four guys would come running (or hide & cringe).

BABY (Support Team/Family)
Aiden (Deborah & Michael - held at their beautiful home)
Claire (Jamie & Kat)
Eva (Hilary & Dave)
Fiona (Catherine & Michael)
Isabella (Jessica & Marjus - he could not make it this time because he had to work)
Maximus (Mary & Franco, plus Gia & Franco, Jr, his wonderful older siblings)
Nolan (Elizabeth & Michael, plus Elizabeth's Mom who was heading back to Chicago that afternoon)
Takeo (Trish & Michael)

Apparently there is something fun going on in the background

They have figured out that if you don't crawl, you have the best odds to end up in a lot of photos!
Takeo | Nolan
Nothing like sucking on someone else's block to build up one's immunity system

A very cool, self-propelled toy.

pulling together the group photo is getting a little more challenging for some reason...
Nolan | Claire | Aiden | Isabella | Takeo | Fiona | Eva | Maximus
Wow, everyone is staying together finally! There is no chance to get them all to look at the cameras (like last time), so quick! Shoot your photos!
Nolan | Claire | Aiden | Isabella | Takeo | Fiona | Eva | Maximus
Awk, we cutoff Max!
Nolan | Claire | Aiden | Isabella | Takeo | Fiona | Eva | Maximus
Ah, that's better! Maybe time to get one more group shot...
Nolan | Claire | Aiden | Isabella | Takeo | Maximus | Fiona | Eva
...and alas, Nolan and Maximus have sat still long enough! They're on the move again!
