so in my sitting on babies job, i've been thinking about the things that are cool about being a baby vs. being a grown up... here's the pros lists
babies:
- you can nap while eating
- you never have to wait for the bathroom
- people will carry you up and down stairs
- you get to nap like 14 times a day
- you're allowed to put everything in your mouth, even in mixed company
- you don't have to pretend to listen to boring people
- did i mention all the napping?
- other people feed you
- you wear funny clothes that people don't point and stare at because they're tiny and thus, cute
- you never have to clean dog poop out of the backyard
- you get carried basically everywhere
- you get to hug teddy bears all day long
- you get to watch people go by without the bother of pretending you like them
- and once again, the naps
grown ups:
- you get to drive (granted, not ALL grown ups do)
- you get to drink vodka and sodas
- you get to cook
- you get to eat more than milk
- you get to drive
- you get to live by yourself
- you get to get pedicures
- you can sit up of your own volition without wondering if your trunk muscles have developed enough to let you sit of your own volition and fall on your face if they're not strong enough
- you get the jokes on the daily show
- you can play the guitar
- you can make playlists on iTunes
- you can go shoe shopping
- you can make crazy bun hair
- people don't have to use toothpaste to make a bow stick in your hair and if they try you can kick them in the shins

i am sure you could give a baby a pedicure if you really wanted to
oooh! good points, all of you!
You make me laugh!
I'd pick baby. And it's not just the napping, it's the napping while eating. That's too cool.
I definitely went shoe shopping while I was a baby. I think I might have even shoe-shopped in utero. I will ask my mom though.
xoxo!
I think being the baby would win out. Who wouldn't want to hang out with teddy bears all day long? That is 100% Awesome Sauce!
