I’ve forgotten how hard newborns are. I think that was meant to happen. If I’d remember how rough those first few months were, I probably wouldn’t have had another one.
Newborns cry…..a lot. And sometimes (most of the time) it’s hard to figure out what’s wrong.
Newborns go through a lot of laundry.
Newborns smell…..sometimes good…most of the time not so good.
Newborns have no concept of day or night….they eat and poop whenever they want.
Newborns require a lot of supplies.
Newborns are very stiff and hard to clean and get dressed.
Newborns don’t care who they pee, poop, or puke on.
Did I mention that newborns cry? A.l.o.t.
But, I’ve also forgotten how incredible newborns are. I think that’s meant to happen, too. If we remembered how wonderful they are…then each one wouldn’t be as special and we wouldn’t appreciate the sweetness.
Newborns bring such a special feeling into your home…that fresh from heaven feeling.
Newborns do smell bad…most of the time…but when they smell good….ohhhh, they smell good.
Newborns sleep a lot….and oh how I love to cuddle with a sleeping baby.
Newborns smile a lot…even if it’s just gas, it still melts my heart.
Newborns do poop a lot…but their little bums are so cute, it’s almost worth it.
Newborns stay where you put them.
Newborns make sweet cooing sounds…not sassy, yelling ones.
Newborns remind you how important eternal families are.
Holding a newborn instantly takes away all the ugliness of life and gives you a glimpse of heaven.
