don't forget to laugh

so I get regular baby/child development emails from a website called babycenter.com, and they always have a "don't forget to laugh" blurb at the end. today's blurb was definitely share-worthy:

You didn't know becoming a parent meant...

• Stacking today's unread newspaper on top of yesterday's unread newspaper.
• Eating dinner like we're trying to break a world record for the most pasta swallowed in the shortest amount of time. Standing up.
• Letting your partner choose between poop and laundry as a topic of conversation.
• Figuring out how to pee without putting the baby down.
• Wearing a bra that looks like something from a 1930s catalog.
• Spending three hours getting the baby to sleep and then waking her up two minutes later to make sure she's still breathing.
• Forgetting what you were...

this is SO my life right now!!! had to laugh. and had to share. :)

Very true all. I'm wondering when I'm going to remember who I am. I guess this is who I am :-)
