What We've Learned...One Year Later

Just over one year ago, we shared our fine words of wisdom about parenthood.

Clearly we were very well educated having had two full months of parenting under our belts. LOL!

Now one year later here is our latest assessment.

#1 - The minute you make a plan of what your child will wear, the event you are going to take her too, or conjure up any grandious ideas of the perfect memory IT WILL BACKFIRE.

#2 - The baby hair that fell out, is now adorned in baby bows and barrets that spend more time in baby's mouth then on her head.

#3 - The baby that you once swaddled is now determined to be naked.



#4 - You can STILL get a lot of stuff done when forced to wake up at 6 a.m. on a Sunday morning.

#5 - Those annoying songs that play on your baby's swing, play mat or bouncy seat will stay with you forever. And once those toys are gone there are new ones to taunt you.

#6 - Children should NOT play in the refrigerator but you do what you have to do to get dinner on the table.



#7 - A parent's fear of entering a social establishment with a mobile baby can terminate Saturday date nights altogether.

#8 - The concept of keeping your child's room clean goes away at a very early age.



#9 - A ponytail holder is still a new Mom's best friend.

#10 - There is nothing sweeter than watching a sleeping baby (and her sleeping baby) lie.
