And.

I've seen you specifically break this one. I always saw it as a variation on the ol' Etch a Sketch...without the need for (or questionable idea of) shaking when you're done.

I've seen you specifically break this one.

Guilty as charged, it's true.

Here is a tip from a (finally) experienced father.

Those labels on the bags of diapers that say 10-12 lbs and stuff like that? That means the baby's weight, NOT the diaper capacity.

Hey, who knew?

2: Me too. Guilty. And I'm probably guilty as the diaper changing ref, as well.

Parenting tip number two. You want to make your baby/toddler laugh? I mean really laugh so hard he/she pees and makes you laugh along?

Put a ping pong ball in your mouth, put your head back and puff our your cheeks and POP the ball out towards the ceiling. Try to make an actual popping sound if you can.

I don't know why but this is like the three stooges to very young kids.

Oh, and when they get older, say five to eight or so, say "poop." They will laugh. Hard. They can't help it.

And who said Dads weren't necessary?

Our little near two year old laughs and laughs when I make up silly rhymes and wordplay around the word "stinky".
