10. Before the pregnancy, I used to ask my wife “How are you doing?” During the pregnancy, it became “Did you throw up?” Now, it’s “How much sleep did you get?” Ah…the beauties of growing up.
9. To grandparents, there’s something cute about their offspring being defecated and urinated on by a grandchild.
8. Changing a diaper is like eating a box of chocolates: you never know what you’re gonna get.
7. Everyone thinks dropping a child is a parent’s worst fear. It’s not. A parent’s worst fear is a wide-awake child at 2am.
6. Babies communicate very well. They just lack specificity.
5. My son choking and my son farting sound eerily similar. Fortunate for us, he farts a whole bunch.
4. Nursing is a misnomer. It should be called ‘Leeching.’
3. Common belief states that ‘babies are cute.’ That’s right - everything is cute…from cooing to wheezing, pooping to crawling. Yes, everything is cute…as long as it falls between 8am and 10pm EST.
2. You will never again take for granted 5 free minutes.
1. No matter the age of the infant, a romantic evening with the wife is still a wonderful thing. We look forward to one sometime in February.

I happened on your blog and I love this post - those 10 lessons you've learned in the first 25 days of David are wonderful! God bless you all!
Hello and welcome! Thanks for the comments, and I'm glad you enjoy it. God bless you too, and good luck with your own blog!
I have to say that I'm a little disturbed by the comparison between chocolates and diapers....
Oh yeah...and that picture of Chelsea with David is soooo cute.
Yeah, my wife loved the chocolates and diapers analogy. But trust me...baby poop and chocolate are totally different.
And Chelsea is the only person more photogenic than Cathy, her mother. Don't worry, though. You're up there in the top 5, along with 2 other people who I'm afraid will beat me up if I say otherwise. They will be named later, as needed.
