I have so many parenting books, I think I could rent out a shelf at Barnes and Noble. There are a bunch that I’ve decided I’m officially done with. They are good, but not appropriate for me anymore! 1. What To Expect When You’re Expecting 2. Parenting Baby Must-Haves 3. The ABCs of Breastfeeding 4. The Nursing Mother’s Companion 5.

So then he proceeds to say “When...

We think they are funny because babies are so cute, but really…… Drooling all over themselves and everything within reach Farting loudly Pooping (and peeing) their pants Tasting everything and only a fraction of it is actually food Throwing food Eating off the...
