Observations on Fatherhood #5

There is no other garment necessary for clothing your child than a sleeper or footie. One piece does it all.

Make sure it’s got a zipper and doesn’t have 28 snaps which can only be assembled in a particular order. As the kid is screaming. At four in the morning.

Your wife may insist, especially when "going out", on dressing your child in "cuter" clothes. A shirt. Pants. Socks. Perhaps a hat and gloves, and a jacket.

All I know is when I’m the clock to take care of the boy, his attire consists of one item, and one item only.

    LOL – Jeff felt exactly the same way until Marin was at least 9 months old. You’ll have to swap fatherhood stories when we get together. (Suz … shh … we’ll keep the fact that we’re right about the “going out” clothes between us.)

  • You must get alot of trafic being the first google result for John Stewart!

  • First off, his name is Jon Stewart, not John Stewart.

    Secondly, I’m nowhere near the first result for “John Stewart”. I’m curious what search strings you used to find this place.

    Every time that dude does something (now, Cramer, previously, Crossfire), I get some response like this. I wonder how you find me!
