How Life With A Toddler Is Like A Frat Party

**Edited to Add** My husband originally sent an email to me with a top 10 list of why life with a toddler was like a frat party. He thought it was funny (it is! It's hysterical!), and suggested I do something similar, but more to what our life is like with a toddler, and I did. I have since been contacted by Suburban Snapshots, who originally wrote the post. (At least, I think. I googled it, and the list shows up on a BAZILLION sites, and I am not going through all of them to track it down!) I'm not familiar with the blog, have never read it, and don't follow it, so I did NOT know that it was somebody else's blog post. I did NOT intend to take somebody else's work, I truly just thought it was another FWD joke being passed around. So, I apologize to Suburban Snapshots, and if you'd like to see her post, please head over there. I would however, appreciate the snarky comments from her readers coming to an end. I made an honest mistake, admit it, and have no problem giving credit where credit is due. Had I known it was hers originally, I would have stated that.




1. There is CONSTANTLY somebody in the house in various stages of undress. Topless, bottomless, both. It varies from day to day.

2.  Somebody can often be found randomly passed out in the middle of the floor.

3.  You are routinely tripping over plastic cups.

4. It's not at all shocking to find random things in the toilet.

5. Also not shocking to find some sort of bodily function in a puddle on the floor.

6. Play dates kick it up a notch. There is one random girl crying in the corner, while some half naked show off jumps off of something.

7. It's much better for everyone involved if you don't question what the stains on the couch are.

8. Going to the bathroom is a group event

9. You find random stains on the wall, and while you can't identify what they are or how they got there, you aren't at all surprised.

10. If you don't keep a handle on things, the cops are probably going to get called.
