- You really can understand what your child is saying – even baby gibberish.
- The floor you thought was clean wasn’t. The nickel and 3 fuzzballs in your baby’s hand proves it.
- Nothing beats a 5 minute shower, especially when you’re now use to 2 minute ones.
- Everyone’s poots smell, but you can pick your baby’s out of a crowd.
- Ponytails are tres’ chic and Jewelery is a no-no.
- Who needs barbells when you carry around 16 lbs all day?
- You body knows when the baby is hungry.
- Breastfeeding is great until you suddenly realize that you may end up with absolutely nothing left there.
- It’s very possible to nurse, brush your teeth, use the potty, and change clothes all at the same time.
- You think you’re not over protective until you realize you just got mad at the thought of your son’s future wife refusing to scratch his back or cook his meal one day.

He Reached for Me!
Ok, I am definately the quintessential doting mom.
My son sneezes and I rush to touch his nose before it drips. He smiles, and my smile broadens. He talks baby talk and I talk baby talk back. He eats a spoon of rice cereal, and I cheer like it’s the yummiest stuff on the planet. He grows a centimeter during the night, and I notice upon waking. His laughs become my gaffaws.
Shoot, I can even distinguish his poots in a crowd of people.
So is it any wonder that I fell to emotionally high pieces tonight, when my little firstborn son – on his 5th month birthday, nonetheless – stuck out both of his arms towards me and cried “Mummum!”
He reached for me!
He was sitting on his Grammy’s knee, and became a bit fussy. I stood up on the other side of the living room and began walking towards them with the intent of cheering him up.
And that’s when it happened.
He actually reached. for. me.
You know….with his arms. Deliberately.
Booyah!
