A few things I've learned since becoming a mom:
- Many tasks which I previously thought required two hands can be accomplished with one (or even with one foot.... never underestimate the utility of your toes)
- If you stay at a hotel with a baby, they will book you a room at the end of the hall without your even asking (sigh of relief)
- More people are interested in talking to "you"... ie talking to the baby. I was at the grocery store last week with Clyde and the sacker kept talking to Clyde and then asked if we needed help out. I answered him and he said "No no, I was talking to HIM". And as I walked away I didn't get a Goodbye or Thank you, rather Clyde got a "Now don't give your mama any trouble today!" I shoulda sent Clyde to the store for me.
- Everything, and I mean everything, is more exciting with a kid around.
- Time goes by way too fast.
- Sleep is overrated.
- Diapers are expensive.
- .... there are more, but baby calls.

Nice post, Char, and it has been fun to catch up on your last few posts (it was especially interesting to read your birth story...thanks for sharing that!). I haven't checked this blog lately and I will have to do so regularly from now on because I need my Clyde fix as often as possible. (Oh, and I like hearing about you, too. ;))
