- Your carpets look worse than ever.
- You run up and down the stairs so many times a day it should be considered a cardio workout.
- You know the difference between a jogger, “mall” and travel/umbrella stroller.
- Every single time you turn around, there is another mess to pick up, clean up or step over.
- You think everyone (including yourself) drives too fast, doesn’t say ‘please’, ‘thank you’ or ‘excuse me’ enough.
- You know that there is nothing more peaceful than a sleeping baby in your arms or the smell of their sweet sweet baby breath.

The smell! I love it! Tater is now getting to be a little boy though, and he's getting stinky 😉
We are working SO hard on the manners! Ours and his both!
Sarah (Chez Lee) says
Ah yes, watching them sleep and holding them in my arms is definitely my favourite. My youngest is getting ready to move and I'm so unprepared for the chaos to descend!
Renee says
Mine is long gone from home and my house is still a mess. And when the grandson visits? After he leaves, there's a 1/2 hour pick up of the path of destruction. But I wouldn't trade it for anything. And I'm starting to anticipate the arrival of the granddaughter in 2 months.

how do stairs NOT count as cardio?
Arizona Mamma says
I LOVE a baby sleeping in my arms. I miss that. It's very rare that either of mine will do that anymore.
And as for the messes, just give up. Otherwise you'll go quietly mad.

How about falling down the stairs? I do that at least once a day because I'm carrying laundry, toys, and other mish-mash. LOL
Leah says
your carpets look fine : ) I do love his baby breath but not after he has had some milk..ewww!
Jennie says
Aww, so sweet! I *miss* sweet baby breath! My 16-month old wakes up with some killer breath. *shudder*
These are great, as usual!
