Time Management

...or maybe the lack of time management?

I started this blog anticipating a post at least every couple of days just because there is so much I am learning and experiencing every single day.

Well, one of the things everyone told me that I didn't fully understand was that babies are time consuming. Also, that babies are kind of gross. Those things go hand in hand.

They poop, they pee, they puke, they drool, and sometimes that poop/pee/puke/drool leaks through their diapers and soaks into their little clothes. You know, the tiny little clothes that couldn't possibly fill up the washing machine. Well, they can and they do. And not only does it soak into their clothes but it also soaks yours, the sheets, any number of blankets, the carpet...you name it.

And all that liquidy goodness needs to get cleaned up. And when this bundle of bodily fluids (and love and joy!) isn't working on costing you your security deposit, he or she needs to eat. Or get burped. Or have their diaper changed. Or get tummy time. Or simply get loved on by mommy and daddy.

And in between that, Mommy and Daddy need to eat, shower, go grocery shopping, make and keep doctor appointments and in a couple of weeks here go back to work.

So to sum up, it's taken so long to get posts going because when I'm not doing nitty-gritty clean-up and other Responsible Adult Things, I've been soaking up precious time with my baby.
