I particulary love #13 The toys will overtake your house. Resistance is futile. of part 1 :P
ReplyDeleteI'll have to add this one: You won't beleive how many times you'll listen the Lion King a day (or any other movie)
7 and 8 CRACKED ME UP!

I think you've hit the nail on the head with all of them! They made me smile!
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely precious and true!!
ReplyDeleteI have 5 year old and 2 month old. I'm reminded of all of the thing's I'd forgotten about and have to look forward to again!!
I found putting my kids needs and happiness above my own was a nutural step and I never resented it .
ReplyDeleteI love the food one , I made all natural food for both my kids , Sophie would have nothing to do with it , so insulting.
I never knew that my every move would be narrated. Including previously private moments, like going to the bathroom.
ReplyDeleteHow about anything can now become a song...
ReplyDelete**"We're going to the car wash 'cause mama's car is dirty. Grandma is coming in the car and will tell mama her car is messy if she doesn't get it clean"**
no particular tune, A little twinkle twinkle, a little baby beluga, a little incy wincy spider.
Take care,
Lisa
These are great and I can relate to every single one. Parenthood is such a fun journey. I do and say things every day (and ditto for them) that make me stop and laugh or think "did I just say that? I sound like my mother!? :) Every day brings new challenges and adventures and that makes it so rewarding.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet little walker she is. I love her hat too. Such retro chic styling.
ReplyDeleteYou and hm are such good parents. I can tell that you are enjoying parenthood very much.

Just when I thought my baby craziness was just a phase I see a video of Chloe and it jump starts it right back up.
ReplyDeleteI am not a mom (yet) but hope to be someday. Chloe is just too cute - I love seeing toddlers walk with their wide gait and instability!
ReplyDeleteAndreann - Good thing I love the Lion King ;)
ReplyDeleteKelly - #8 is SO TRUE. We refer to Chloe's wheels as the Cadillac of tricycles.
Pigeon - Chloe can't talk yet. I guess that narration is something I'm not looking forward to, lol.
Lisa - you are so right!! I don't even realize I'm singing half the time.
Mandy - yeah, turns out Mom really did know best, didn't she?
jbhat - we are having a ball :)
J&K - I'd be happy to send along more photos and videos if that helps the cause any ;)
