Monkey Butt!
…The winner of the reader’s choice comic for this week is Monkey Butt! Enjoy!
________
Here’s the problem:
toddler +dirty diaper+control issues = rash!
solution: a bath
simple right?
Baby says: NO!
Try threats? or Logic? no, try a game!
Fill tub with toys, put water level just under the knees, and let baby just STAND there. Fun!
Then! distract child and throw coins in the bottom of the tub
Hooray!
submersion!
Tune in next month when I finally figure out how to wash baby’s hair.

I Wanna go back there
this comic is from a reply to my husband who wanted to know why we had a seagull feather on the kitchen counter. Because I’m old school, fearless, and a slob ;o)

idle parent
…This is based on one of my favorite parenting books of all time, The Idle Parent, by Tom Hodgkinson.

I whole-heartedly recommend the book, except for three pages (If I remember the count correctly, it’s been a while.)
