TOP 10 THINGS I CHOOSE NOT TO WORRY ABOUT.


1. Her not walking yet.
I am yet to find a resume that states "Walked before 10 months old".

2. Not finishing every last bite on her plate.
If I lived by kid's rule "Finished when full", that bikini might still fit.

3. Not sending her to fancy shmansy $20.000 a year kindergarden.
How do you say "I pooped" in Latin? Who cares.

4. That 17 year old babysitter with extra perky everything.
If "John and Kate plus 8" taught us anything...he will leave if he wants to leave. There is nothing you can do about it.

5. Letting dirty laundry mix in with clean and sit there while I sip my wine.
Four nights in the same PJs. I call it "comfort".

6. Not having a huge, overpriced birthday for my 1 year old.
It just freaks them out. Period.

7. Spending Thanksgiving or Christmas with my little family of three. 
Those family traditions have to start somewhere.

8. That woman at the playground that asked me if I was pregnant.
You are a bitch. I hate you.

9. Not giving her a little sister or a brother.
That is what imaginary friends are for.

10. Her STILL waking up in the middle of the night.
One day, very soon, she will beg me to sleep in "just 5 more minutes".

  1. I know you are talking about me in #6 - I know it!

    And #7 - oh how I wish I could have JUST us 3 for the holidays. Extended family can be overrated.

  4. I will not worry about wiping down the entire world with wet wipes before she can touch stuff -- The other day her dad found her fingerpainting with poo... They will get into gross stuff and they will survive.

  5. #2 is so true!! We need to take notes from these babies! They eat when they are hungry, they sleep when they are tired, they poop when they have to. Why do we push??! Hmmmm...I smell a new blog, haha. You've inspired me! ;-P
    Congrats on all of your fab success! It's very exciting!
