I suck at burping. I've read books. I've watched videos on the Internet. I've listened to the wisdom of other moms. But no matter what I do I just can't seem to garner the same loud "UTTTT" that Bret can when he burps Alyson.
I've heard this from other moms too. That Dad is just better at burping than they are. I think maybe it has something to do with the fact that since Dad can't feed her burping is a skill he can perfect. I started wondering how I stack up in other areas so I asked Alyson for a progress report. She sat down with me this morning and here's how I measure up.
I told her anything under a B required a detailed explanation. Apparently, I also stink at changing diapers. Alyson loves to pee on the changing table when she is exposed and I still haven't learned that I need to hold a diaper over her EVERY time when she is in the buff. Good thing I will have my own washer and dryer soon. Last night, I got pooped on (twice!).
