"2. There will be outfits they only wear once before outgrowing them. This hurts. Try not to buy expensive outfits."

"7. Have a playlist. I have compiled a playlist that I use to disarm her when she is angry or annoyed. I have tested it on my friends' babies too. Babies love these songs. Here is the link to the Apple Music playlist I curated.

"8. You might think you are a nice person but in fact, you are a sadistic being who will find joy in your baby rejecting other people and wanting you. Sies!

"9. These things are always trying to die. Your job is to stop them. They will want to roll over a bed, they will want to chew on the tip of your laptop charger, they will want to swallow the coin that just fell out of your pocket. Your job is suicide watch. Don't slip."

In other adorable daddy-daughter news, Briefly.co.za previously reported on a father and his little girl splashing around in a puddle together. The video starts with a little girl standing in a puddle while her father stands on the outskirts.

The little girl extends her arms and says "Come here," to her dad. She proceeds to say "come here" again and then "hold my hand" until her father joins her in the puddle. Once her father joins her in the puddle she starts jumping.
