Babies are Disgusting

Babies are...

1) Adorable
2) Disgusting
3) Cannibalistic
4) Adorable

These things seem to happen in cycles. They're just so cute when they're falling asleep in your arms, with their big eyes closing and the smile on their face. Then they SPIT UP ALL OVER YOU. And then you forgive them (a little bit) because they smile and splutter that adorable little baby laugh and shove their fists into their mouths (hence the cannibalistic tendencies) and you go all gooey and mushy and smile at them as you wipe off the stomach mush and milk that they just barfed all over your shirt.

Aww, how cute. Baby barf.

(Um, NO.)

Can you tell I was babysitting again tonight? Love the money, love the children.... less so on the barf.

Babies are just so adorable! They have big eyes and soft downy hair and I turn to mush and do all those instinctual things when they cry. The Mommy-bounce seems to be programmed into every female. But it's great when it's babysitting for a few hours every week or so. I don't want one until I'm much older. And married. If I had a baby, it would be like one of those Nights and Weekends plans, only I wouldn't want the baby on nights and weekends. Just during the days. Maybe every other day.

Twice a week?
