Babies By The Numbers

In the August issue of Parents magazine there was this little article called Babies by the Numbers that I loved and wanted to share with you all.
In your kid's first year get ready to tally up:
122 hours reading to your newbie
10 inches grown
1,440 hours of sleep lost
3,120 diapers changed
156 baths given
503 miles strolled with baby
61,000 smiles flashed by you sweetie
2,460 bottles filled
and an unlimited amount of happiness that your baby will give you.

I wonder how many extra loads of laundry that you do in the first year. That would have been a great statistic as well.
