Art: Um, your BABY is CRYING!
Lisa: Well, I just fed him, so whatever it is you could help him with it, right?
Art: Well, try feeding him again or something.
Lisa: Did you try bouncing him on the yoga ball?
Art: YES of course--I tried lots of things!
(Lisa holds him, bounces him on the yoga ball, he stops screaming and calms down immediately...Art throws up his hands...)
Lisa: You tried this?
Art: YES!
(Art takes him, tries bouncing again, he starts crying again...)
Lisa: No, no, you have to CUDDLE him...no, CUDDLIER! And are you thinking lovey thoughts about how sweet he is and how much you love him and what a great baby he is?
Art: (blank stare) ...are you SERIOUS?
Lisa: Yes.
Art: Right now I'm thinking about how annoying you are.
Lisa: Well, then there you go--you're not doing it right.
Oh, happy 1 month birthday, Omar! :)
oh Omar! This is hilarious. I have had this exact discussion with Brandon 100 times. I really think that the cuddle instinct might not be there for guys...unless they are just faking it. Just kidding, I can't imagine Art doing that:) Brandon? yes. Art? no. Boys just love Mama.
