1. Why 11? Well I planned on writing this yesterday because I planned to write "10 Things We've Learned as a New Parents with a 10 Day Old Newborn," but the first things we learned is nothing ever goes to plan with a newborn. EVER.
2. Sleep is for Wimps. Ok - We TOTALLY get it Moms and Dads.
3. Everything your baby does makes them a genius. "Look how far she lifts her head! She's a genius!"
4. POOP. POOP. POOP. Always wait for at least the second cannon ball. There is always more.
5. Your dog will be as sleep deprived as you are.
6. Sometimes when all else fails, it's ok for mom to cry alongside baby.
7. Your house will never be clean again. Laundry will never folded again. Dishes will remain in your sink.
8. Give up on trying to get dressed. Spit up and milk are your new accessories. A shower is a luxury.
9. Outings take at least an hour to prepare for. By the time you get out the door, it's time to nurse again.
10. Because of reason #9, Doctor's appointments should not be a specific time, but more a 2-3 hour window to aim for.
11. There is nothing sweeter than unconditional love.
