you know those blog posts where the blogger recommends articles/products/other blog posts in a long list of links? i usually skip those. not because of lack of time, but because of laziness. that's a lot of clicking! every once in a while i will click on a link that catches my eye, and very recently i was greatly rewarded for my click. joanna recommended reading these two blog posts about parenthood, which are hi-lar-ious. i swear, she must read everything on the internet.

the first laugh-out-loud post comes from the blog, suburban snapshots. the title explains the content. i have included the whole list, but please click on the title to read the comments. they are equally funny.
10. There are half-full, brightly-colored plastic cups on the floor in every room. Three are in the bathtub.
9. There's always that one girl, bawling her eyes out in a corner.
8. It's best not to assume that the person closest to you has any control over their digestive function.
7. You sneak off to the bathroom knowing that as soon as you sit down, someone's going to start banging on the door.
6. Probably 80% of the stains on the furniture contain DNA.
5. You've got someone in your face at 3 a.m. looking for a drink.
4. There's definitely going to be a fight.
3. You're not sure whether anything you're doing is right, you just hope it won't get you arrested.
2. There are crumpled-up underpants everywhere.
1. You wake up wondering exactly how and when the person in bed with you got there.
see? funny.
these second comes from the blog, parenting. illustrated with crappy pictures. (also pointed out on cup of jo) this one explains crappy laws of parenting. i have just included one, but if you click on the title, you will see the entire (hilarious) list.
Crappy Law of Parenting #6 (naps are never safe)
If you've remembered to turn off your phone ringer during a nap, the doorbell will ring. Followed by loud knocking.
If you go to the door, it will be someone trying to sell you something you don't want. If you pretend to not be home, you'll find out later it was a friend bringing you chocolate and wine. She tried to call you, but your ringer was off.
Either way, it wakes up the baby.
i'm off to hug my toddler. wish me luck, he's not a hugger.
