Questions

Parenthood has raised some questions in my mind. Most of them are ones that I would never ask a person face to face. That is the beauty of the internet...you can ask questions to no one. And everyone. All at once. Sa-weet!

• Why do I sometimes wish that my daughter would take a nap and then wish that she would wake up as soon as she falls asleep so that we could play some more?


• Does changing one's diaper immediately create the urge for one to fill it?


• How much does the average family spend on batteries for toys and where do we fall in that range?


• How come cute outfits only last a short while before catastrophe strikes but ugly ones can be worn for days?


• Why must diaper companies characterize their diapers? Do you really think that my girl (or I) cares that she has Mickey on her duds? I don't care much for the character ones but am not willing to pay more for fewer quantity of the Pampers Prints which ARE cute.


• Speaking of diapers, do you know that we have already gone through about 500 of them? (sigh)


• Do all old ladies in Michigan grocery shop at Kroger on Thursday mornings? They do here, and so do I because they are sooooo nice. (and I don't know many people here yet.)


• Does anyone else's husband read landscaping supply catalogs from cover to cover? (sigh again)


• Is it possible that after a year of searching and visiting a myriad of churches we may have finally found what we've been looking for? Yessssss!


• Why does my girl hate tummy time so much?


• Is it true that little L has us so in love with her that we daily trash our own house with toys, books, and random amusements?


• Why does baby's rice cereal look so good to me?


• Is it normal that rice cereal looks good?


• Does everyone stop watering their plants when they have a baby? My peace lily no longer looks peaceful or lili-ish.


• Will I ever sleep through the night again? Just because baby does, doesn't mean Mama can.


• Does anyone know where baby's missing pink pacifier or 4 oz bottle are? (I know you have one paci, mom, but there is another that is awol)


• How do you slow down the clock? Time goes entirely too fast.


• What did we ever do before Little L?
