Congratulations!
I recently had the opportunity to read the book Quarterback Dad by Bobby Mercer and thoroughly enjoyed it.The book is written using many football terms which Dads will find themselves relating to. The Dad is called The Quarterback, Mom is The Teammate, and the baby-to-be is Future Star or 1st Round Draft Pick. It's written in a very simple yet humorous tone that even Mommies will find entertaining.
From the book: "You've just signed a new star player to your home team - but are you really ready for kickoff? With Quarterback Dad, you can suit up and take the field with the cool competence of an All Star! From learning the plays to clinching the playoffs, you'll triumph every yard of the way."
But it's more than entertaining, it's informative. This book talks about everything from the moment you find out the exciting news, to shopping for the nursery, morning sickness, baby showers, dealing with mood swings, delivery, nursing, talking to the pediatrician, and everything else involved with a brand new baby. And it's all delivered (so to speak) in a way that guys can understand. How cool is that?
How would you like a copy for yourself? To enter, just stop by Quarterback Dad's official site before April 23rd then come back and mention one newborn/toddler tip listed there. That's it! A random winner will be selected and notified on April 24th. The winner will then have 3 days to claim their prize.

This would be great for my husband because he loves football! My favorite is "Talk to your little one. She will hear you and she will grow to understand what you are saying." which is so true and a very important thing to do.
"You cannot spoil a child with too much love."
you cannot spoil a child with too much love - as a psychotherapist I would be out of business if this was followed more carefully!!!! well not out of business but I would have a lot less!
I know a new baby tires you but gosh knows I can use some romance. I think that's a great tip
Looks like interesting reading. Thanks for the chance.
