Oh That's Life

Here's something funny and amusing I found at the baby birth announcements section of today's community newsletter. I hope it will put a smile in your face today.

It's a baby and a Mom!
BORN: Juliet Amor Merlot
GAVE BIRTH: Karen Adams Merlot
DATE: October 2, 2010 (Yes, it took Karen months to get around to ordering announcements. So sue her.)
WEIGHT: The baby is 7lbs 12oz. As for mom, let's see: She's eating 500 extra calories a day for breastfeeding, plus half a pound of chocolate to stay awake, plus all the lasagna her friends can cook. You do the math!
EYES: Baby's blue / Mom's bloodshot
HAIR: Baby's brown / Mom's unwashed since last Tuesday and falling out by the handful.
LENGTH: Practically forever - at least 26 hours of labor, plus 3 hours of pushing. And that's not counting those eight visits to the hospital the week before, when Karen thought she was in labor but it was really Braxton Hicks; or the half hour after the baby came out, when her OB kept doing things "down there" that are best not thought about. OH, and the baby was 21 inches!
SEX: Never again!
