Boot Camp for New Dads

Boot Camp for New Dad'sWhat an incredible honor to be the “coach” at the Boot Camp for New Dads today!

We had 13 “new dads” and 4 “vet dads” with their 4 precious babies.

Honest questions, animated conversation, and projectile poop. We had it all! (The poop went about two feet!)

We discussed how to be involved, how to help relatives really help (versus just getting in the way), how to calm a crying baby, how to be there for mom. It was great.

I wish this type of program were around when Em and I were having kids!

I’m tremendously honored to be asked to serve our community this way. Can’t wait until the next one in June!

    Thanks, Greg!

    I’ve had dads calling on Saturday evening and on Monday thanking us over and over for offering this.

    Can’t wait until June!
