Great Teacher
Well as you may have guessed by my lack of blogging...Tait has arrived. We got him on Friday at about 1 p.m. and it's been absolute bliss ever since. He is so adorable and a great, great baby. Actually, I'm not sure he's really a good baby or the fact that I have six nannies just helps out immensely!

He is a really good teacher too! We've already learned so much from him about:

MATH
  • no matter how many hands you have.... it is never enough
  • Eight people working to please one baby equals a very happy infant.
  • 11p.m.-5 p.m. no matter what happens is still only 6 hours of sleep!
  • Q.A size one diaper can hold 6 ounces, if a baby eats four ounces every three hours how soon will it be before you have an explosion oozing out of every side?

A. This is a trick question...you see, even if you just change a babies diaper somehow they can manage to have a blow out that could clear any auditorium a matter of seconds after you get them settled in daddies lap!

  • Women holding baby=someone elses problem....Man holding baby=chick magnet

Science

  • What goes in must come out!
  • Freud was right! We are sexual creatures from the get go, anything that vibrates is soothing!

History

  • No matter how many you have, when you space them five years apart it is like having your first all over again!
  • When asking the clerk at Babies R Us for an item that was "in" seven years ago, you can and will make yourself look insanely behind the times!

Sociology

  • If you want something yell for it. If you don't get it? Keep yelling! Eventually someone will give you what you want, at that time give a big cheesy grin so you guarantee yourself faster results the next time you'd like something!
  • If you have gas go ahead and let it out, you'll feel better and it makes people laugh!
  • When you first meet someone be sure to give them your best "confused" look. You then have them like a puppet on a string trying to please you and make you smile!
  • As long as you are smiling, you will be noticed!

Psychology

  • Positive reinforcement is good and all but trust me when I tell you that if you scream your head off when someone does something you don't like, they WILL stop doing it.

Our professor, Tait, will continue to teach us and we will keep passing our knowledge onto you. Consider it "free courses" in life lessons!
