I just spent 3 consecutive nights in the household of a 10 1/2 month old.
I have never been so exhausted in my entire life.
People with babies talk about that tiredness, so I know this isn’t earth shattering information. But damn.
Nicole has been complaining about being exhausted, and in a fit of morning sickness and a dirty toilet, she asked for some help. So I picked a weekend to go and imagined that I’d spend 48 hours in a beatitude of cleanliness and wholesome, delicious meals. Instead, I quickly got sucked into the miasma and succumbed to any opportunity to nap.
2 days and 3 nights. That’s how long I spent with my nephew Max. And oh my god. I couldn’t help but be horrified. People desperately want these things! And, I want one of those things! But it’s so awful! Oh, the sweet, sweet conflict.
Max, 10 1/2 months old
