i still don't get it

we had my cousin's 6-month-old here from 10:45-6:45 today. i didn't get up til noon, and i managed to watch a movie (in two parts) in there (since my mother had agreed to watch him, i didn't have to be with him the whole time, but i felt sorry for my mom, so i put in some time), but still, all i could think was, 'oh my gosh, how do people do this? and why the heck do they want to?' i seriously think the only things worse than kids are babies. they cry and don't stop and you can't figure out why and they don't shut up. i tried to be understanding, because i know 6 months is a frustrating age to be - you know your life is boring, but you haven't quite figured out the sitting thing yet, and you can't crawl. but oh my gosh, child stop. and to make it worse, my mom told me that overall he really had been good. what the crap do people do with bad babies?!

the reason babies are so cute is so that we love them even though all they do is cry, poop, and spit up

and i guess i do like my 1 1/2 every 6 weeks nursery time. i do feel a need for a baby fix every once in awhile. but at least that's only an hour and a half, and there are 3 grown-ups, and some of the babies are over a year.

until they can crawl, they are extremely boring

I read this to my mom, I thought it was so funny. :) We both laughed. I think being single is a blessing...

I never liked babies until I had my own. I still don't really like other people's babies all that much, but there is something about your own baby that makes you protective and able to ignore all the bad parts. You get used to it I suppose. When you are first getting used to being a mom, their cries are not very loud and you almost want them to cry, so by the time they get older and cry more, you've been weaned into it...
