Why do infants clothes have pockets? (This, more than anything else, has been one of motherhood’s greatest mysteries for me.)

And you know that baby smell that people love? (Well, I love that smell.) But wait! I can’t smell it on my own baby!! It’s a big let down actually, because I Do Love That Smell. Perhaps it’s because I’m around her all the time? Or maybe she just smells like a baby version of me? No one tells you these things. Like how no one told us about projectile poop or just how much darn fun it is to sit and stare all day at this incredible little being.
