Trip to Denver, Day 1

For the next few days we will be

Our favorite musical baby toy appears to be haunted.

Papa Bird suggested this yesterday, when it spontaneously changed songs; now it has turned on when it was across the room from us and not near any cats.

If it isn’t haunted, perhaps the explanation is that the baby has experienced some sort of telepathic growth spurt.

Parenting Blogs

Phil: “Which end of the baby do you need? I mean which side do you want her on? I know which end of the baby you need for this procedure. Well… I’m not up on all the latest parenting blogs.”

Talk to your child

Having been informed recently that it is important to talk to your child, regardless of what exactly you say, Papa Bird has now spent a fair amount of time reading to Monster Hands from Adam Smith’s Theory of Moral Sentiment.

Wisdom from Papa Bird

“And for Easter, Kehdrin, we take the house chicken for a walk to hunt for greens and bugs!”

Chickenmonster

This is Papa Bird, with Monster Hands, taking our house chicken for a walk in the yard on a leash.

Yes, the chicken is still living in the house. She’s cool with it. She’s got company there.

Yes, she is again wearing the chicken diaper. She’s in the yard and we could use the nitrogen, but she also likes to climb on people’s legs.

Without a diaper, that story ends poorly.
