Acerca de esta escucha
Toddlers are messy. Toddlers are moody. Toddlers have opinions and demands and emotions that flip from happy to hysterical in an instant. Essentially...toddlers are cats. And parenting them? Well, parenting toddlers is nonstop cat herding. Herding Cats is an up-close, real-life look at the world of a toddler parent. A world of tantrums and potty training. A world of never-ending snot. A world of hilariously inappropriate comments, limitless growth, and perfectly timed "I love you"s. In this memoir bursting with laughter, commiseration, and encouragement, Herding Cats empowers its listeners to laugh off the toddler nonsense and find beauty in the midst of wrangling the most feral of felines.

Meant to be a last-minute anniversary gift for her then boyfriend (and now husband), the highly energetic and loud-mouthed Vizla puppy named Harlow turns out to be the best snap decision twenty-year-old Taylor ever makes—and the beginning of the most epic friendship she ever has. As Wolfe’s resistance to 9-5’s and traditional adulthood grows, Harlow becomes the perfect companion for her eccentricities in a world that thrives on conformity.

In Dad is Fat, stand-up comedian Jim Gaffigan, who’s best known for his legendary riffs on Hot Pockets, bacon, manatees, and McDonald's, expresses all the joys and horrors of life with five young children - everything from cousins ("celebrities for little kids") to toddlers’ communication skills ("they always sound like they have traveled by horseback for hours to deliver important news"), to the eating habits of four-year-olds ("there is no difference between a four-year-old eating a taco and throwing a taco on the floor").

Numerous apps and books exist to help expectant parents understand their baby’s development by comparing their unborn child to a raspberry or a stalk of broccoli, but Taylor Calmus takes issue with that. First off, your baby is not some wimpy little vegetable. Your baby is like a hardcore little lug nut who is straight-up growing organs on a weekly basis. Second, how big is a stalk of broccoli? And what the heck even is a kumquat? Clearly this situation calls for a better approach. Enter . . . A Dude’s Guide to Baby Size.

This is a small collection of thoughts on mothering young children for when you are motivated, for when you are discouraged, for the times when discipline seems fruitless, and for when you are just plain tired. The opportunities for growth abound here but you have to be willing. You have to open your heart to the tumble. As you deal with your children, deal with yourself always and first. This is what it looks like, and feels like, to walk as a mother with God.

"There is really no better indicator you're a mother than acquiring the ability to catch throw-up in a plastic bag, disinfect your hands, and immediately ask your friend to pass the beef jerky as you put on another Taylor Swift song and act as if nothing has happened." This is the type of insight Melanie Shankle offers in this quirky memoir of motherhood.

Around the time your first baby turns a year old your brain will turn on you. For reasons that are still not understood by science, the sleep deprivation and postpartum hormones you barely survived with your first baby fade from memory and will be replaced with idyllic images of your growing child. This is when your brain, having officially lost all regard for your well-being, begins to fantasize about a second baby. And for the first time since becoming a parent, these thoughts don't make you break out in hives.

Because this is an ongoing process, Weird Parenting Wins covers children of all ages, ranging in topics from "The Art of Getting Your Kid to Act Like a Person" (on hygiene, potty training, and manners) to "The Art of Getting Your Kid to Tell You Things" (because eventually, they're going to be tight-lipped). You may find that someone else's weird parenting win works for you, or you might be inspired to try something new the next time you're stuck in a parenting rut.

In a culture that idealizes motherhood, it’s scary to confess that, in your house, being a mother is beautiful and dirty and joyful and frustrating all at once. Admitting that it’s not easy doesn’t make you a bad mom; at least, it shouldn’t. When Jill Smokler was first home with her small children, she thought her blog would be something to keep friends and family updated. To her surprise, she hit a chord in the hearts of mothers everywhere. As other women shared their stories, Jill realized she wasn’t alone in her feelings of exhaustion and imperfection.

Hilarious book, awesome perspective- glad I listened
This is a real, down to earth book. The author is hilarious and it is a fun read! I love her examples of life with little kiddos and she is so right when she relates them to hearding cats. I must say though that my favorite chapter was towards the end when she evaluated her own perspective- she taught me tons in that one chapter alone. I’m so glad I listened to this book. I want to extend a sincere “thank you” to the author for writing her perspective in this book.

Totally relatable!!!!
Awesome book Whitney!!! This is beyond relatable being the mother of twin toddlers myself!!! I have no idea where you find the time to write, but you did a great job!! This book had me laughing out loud, crying, remembering similar experiences and being inspired!!! I also love how you ended it with the intro of the “Cats” themselves!! :)
And, I enjoyed your caffeine and dairy voice too! How could you ever give that up?!? Excellent Book!

You certainly don't have to be at this stage of motherhood to enjoy this sweet audiobook. While I am past the terror of toddlerhood with my own son, the author's stories opened the floodgate to memories of my now late elementary school-aged son's time of toddlerhood. It was good to laugh and reminisce but also made me stop and appreciate the struggles I face now. I remember thinking nothing could be worse than a cranky, independent toddler... fast forward to a mouthy, opinionated 9-year-old and I feel the same way. This book was a wonderful reminder to stop and cherish each stop along our children's journeys even when they make us question every decision we've ever made. Thank you for giving us a chuckle, Whitney!
