Here are the top 10 things I've learned in my first week of fatherhood (by Paul)

10. I am quickly finding out how much you can do with one arm. I feel as though I’ve been wasting so much potential using two arms all these years.


9. Expectant parents are told not to bring the new baby around lots of people, but all you want to do is show her off. Of course that is because your baby is always the cutest and smartest baby ever.

8. Newborns are not nearly as fragile as I thought they were. This was proven by watching the doctor carry Emma upside down by one leg across the operating room when she was born.

7. I thought I was the biggest fan of Jenn’s boobs, but apparently I’m a very distant second.

6. Crying babies used to annoy me, but Emma’s cry just makes me smile and laugh. I’m sure I’ll get over that joy at some point.

5. Boob juice has the same influence on a baby that tequila has on an alcoholic.

4. The amount going into her diaper far exceeds the amount that goes into her mouth. This is against all laws of physics.

3. I actually said “thank god she isn’t a boy.” In the spirit of full disclosure it was right after she peed on me while changing her diaper. A boy probably would have gotten me in the face.

2. No matter how much you love your wife, husband, mother, father, sister, brother, grandmother or grandfather it is no match for how much you instantly love your baby.
