  • There are just not enough hours in the day.
  • I should forgive myself for not getting as much done as I used to before I had a baby. That I’m able to accomplish anything between feeding, changing, holding, comforting, playing, pumping, and working (from home) is a feat in itself.
  • The only thing worse than breast milk on the couch is regurgitated breast milk on the couch.
  • Everyone thinks my son looks exactly like his grandfathers. Apparently all I gave him are thunder thighs, allergies and flatulence.
  • It really is less annoying/gross/scary/exhausting when it’s your own.
