Sleep deprivation – yeah, that’s our excuse….
OK - so I was feeling a little off due to "baby brain, " otherwise known as sleep deprivation. - at least that's what we're blaming it on. And by "it," I mean our (both mine and Richard's) explanation for doing things that would otherwise classify us as "learning impaired." That's the PC way of saying that Rich and I are retarded. (yes, I realize that word is no longer acceptable as slang, but hey - we grew up in the 80's - it just means we're lacking a little - lol). ANYWAY - what a long introduction for a short example....
So Rich and I were giving Jonas a quick bath (due to an unfortunate peeing experience ). We were almost finished and Richard was holding Jonas. I told him to go ahead and dry Jonas off while I cleaned up. As I turned my head, I noticed Richard blowing on him. "With the towel, Rich... dry Jonas off with the towel...."
Oh, I am still laughing days later - thank God for funny things.

Aw…did someone get peed on? ROFL!! Good update! Kids or kid are tough. There is huge ‘learning’ curve! (another-words there is no manual or OS to follow!) : ^ )
Good hear/read you all still have a sense of humor!! Sounds like something Richard would do! ROFL!!
That reminds me of the time we were getting ready to make tacos and the tortilla package said “flex to open”. Of course, Rich set the package down and flexed his muscles. I still laugh at that.
Yeah, ‘baby-brain’, doesn’t that suck? Nothing in the whole world makes you feel less competent than having a baby. I love this story. Hey, he was just solving the problem, right? Poor CB.
Glad to hear you guys are still muddling through. Sometimes the answer to ‘Why the heck is this baby crying?’ is, ‘Because he just feels like crying!’.
If you don’t already have the diapers with the color-change strip that turns blue when the diaper is wet – GET THEM. You’ll cry when he outgrows them.
Love the story! Write them down. We are so bad about writing our stories down. It is amazing the things you do, say and don’t do when you are lacking sleep.
hahahahaahahhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
wheeeeeeeeeeeew, that was funny!
