Baptism by FIRE...or spit-up!




Jeff and I have learned valuable lessons on this first one that we hopefully will remember for babies to come.

1) Never feed or burp a child in clothing you intend on wearing for the rest of the day.
2) Always make sure vital parts are covered during diaper changes if you plan on wearing the clothes you have on for the rest of the day.
3) Let sleeping babies sleep...no matter where or what position they are in.
4) No matter how wierd the bears are on the mobile...they can be your baby's best friends.
5) You really should plan for multiple changes of clothing per day for you and the baby.
6) No diaper is leak proof.
7) Yes...a baby does eat all the time.
8) Never leave the house without everything from the baby's room packed in your huge bag.
9) Plan for a good hour to get out of the house...then another 15 min. when you finally get everything ready and find that the baby suddenly needs an emergency diaper/clothing change.
10) No baby can have too much attention...kiss their faces off!
