Officially a dad?
++# Officially a dad?
Giving up after the 5th try of getting that last piece of curdled milk out of his 4th neck chin.
Does this mean, I’m officially a dad?

“Gold” medal parenting
She says to me at 1 AM: “I’m so glad I sucked the snot out of our son’s nose… it wasn’t really gross at all.”
This was a short while after she showed me his boogies in the snot sucker with far more pride than when she showed me her finisher’s medal after her first triathlon.
Apparently, the sucker has a filter in it… or something.

Rollin’ with his homies
By the afternoon, with the air quality getting a little better, M— was beyond tired, so Benjamin took took me in his ride, a Chicco KeyFit 30 Caddy, “cruisin’ for some chicks” (his words, of course, not mine). We were going stir-crazy at home anyway.
Because the warm weather, he wanted to just buckle up and jet and show his rockin’ bod he and mommy have been working on for the last 10 months,…

Rocky moments in parenting
Anyone else do the beginning Rocky training montage before changing an especially poopy diaper or is it just me?
I do it right after I pop open the wet wipes and get out the fresh diapers, but before I start changing. M— always laughs when she sees the air punches.
If I haven’t been peed on and he isn’t crying by the end…

Time to call the police!
On our walk yesterday…
M—: Look at the pretty chalk on the sidewalk, it’s so nice when children do that.
Me: Yeah…
Also me: Wait, shouldn’t we be calling the police on them?
M—: *laughs* Too soon, Terry.

Russia and COVID
It wasn’t that long ago that some people were claiming that totalitarian/authoritarians were better at handling COVID-19. That came from counting China and Singapore as such and ignoring South Korea. But a bigger one was basically taking unbelievable numbers at face value: Iran being lower than Italy, Russia only having a single case at the time, India having none.
Yesterday the top three…
