1. My favorite thing about my house right now is that the laundry room is on the 2nd floor with all of the bedrooms.
2. It IS possible to do at least 2 loads of laundry. Every day. For months.
3. It is also possible to get spit up on, peed on, and pooed on essentially simultaneously.
4. I'm secretly happy when #3 happens simultaneously because it means fewer clothes changes (and less laundry!) compared to when those 3 things happen individually.
5. Speaking of clothing changes, it is possible to go through 5 outfits before noon.
6. I can't watch any news stories about kids (happy or sad) without getting emotional.
7. I thought I was hungry when I was pregnant...!
8. My alcohol tolerance has reverted back to where it was when I was 18. I mean 21. (Sorry Mom!)
9. Because of #9, I'm twice as fun at half the price!
10. I felt oddly accomplished when I got clothes on over Cole's head without making him cry.
11. Because of my aversion to over-the-head clothes, 99% of what Cole wears either snaps or zips up the front.
12. I never thought I'd be so happy to be able to take an ibuprofen again. It's the little things.
13. Dryers eat baby-sized socks at twice the rate of adult-sized socks.
14. There are very strange things on t.v. at 2am.
15. Similarly, there are very strange things on t.v. at 2pm.
16. It's not wise to watch "The Men Who Stare at Goats" during a 3am feeding. It made about as much sense as watching "Fight Club" while intoxicated.
17. I've learned to watch out for over-the-back burps (see #5).
18. I feel like I've performed a black ops maneuver when I'm able to get Cole and me out of the house on time (or even early!).
19. It's Murphy's Law that everyone wants to "facetime" while I'm feeding Cole. Really? Really.
20. Dad > Mom at coming Cole's hair. When Shaun does it, Cole looks fantastic. When I do it, Cole looks like Lloyd Christmas from Dumb & Dumber...
21. I can't imagine my life any other way!
