random things that you learn when you become a parent.

you CAN beat the hiccups. You simply need to lie down next to a 2 year old trying to sleep, and you find you can hold your breath a lot longer. this is similar to holding in any sort of bodily gasses next to a 14 year old boy so as to not start a trend and mastering the art of doing the dirty silently so as not to wake your brother who lives with you and your significant other :]

just saying.

what anecdotes do you have that youve learned along these lines?

tell me some funny lessons. i enjoy a good laugh.
