Catnaps are for the Birds

I can hear Seinfeld saying something like, "Why are they called capnaps anyway? Have you ever seen a cat? They sleep all the time!"

Not Connor. He is currently going through a phase (please, please, please!) where he only naps for 30-45 minutes at a time. It almost takes longer to get him to fall asleep than it does for him to stay asleep. So I'm lucky if I can brush my teeth and pee. And, no, not at the same time. That is disgusting.

Albert Einstein, Leonardo daVinci and Thomas Edison all took 20 minute power naps. Until Connor patents a diaper that can contain poo (see previous post), I'm going to call these naps what they really are. Pee breaks.

Maybe Huggies Hug Too Much

Diapers only have one purpose. But if they are not effective you don't have the option of not using them.

After cleaning up yet another blowout, I'm starting to wonder if the description on the box is for the diapers and not the baby. Because they are so "Snug", the poop has no where else to travel but up the back and out the legs. Therefore, keeping the diaper "Dry."

Some of my friends have suggested going up a size, where the top of the diaper is just under the armpits. Maybe a full body diaper is the answer...or maybe you could use them as a ninja mask!

All I Want for Christmas...

Cute song. However, I am not anxious for my five-month-old to get teeth. Once he does, he will no longer have a toothless grin. Until he is about 80 years old, but I either won't be around or too senile to enjoy it.

My father-in-law tried to cheer me up by stating that he will probably be toothless in only 10-15 years. But it's not the same. Yeah, there is the drooling, incontinence and gibberish. But still. Totally different.
