the difference between mommies and daddies... (2)

So I've continued noticing vast differences in how The Hubby and I react to baby situations. Sometimes they're so funny that I just have to share - so I've created a whole new label thread for "the difference between mommies and daddies". (Catch the first one right here.)

This morning we were eating our brown rice and apple sauce in quiet family contentment. Little Man was watching from his Boppy-bouncy-thingy on our long kitchen counter, fed and dry, cooing happily away. Until....

Pllssssphhhhhh. Phhht. Pssttttphhhhht!

Loud juicy squirts blew through the companionable silence.

I'm sitting closest to him. Waves of baby poo-smell waft over my bowl of rice and applesauce. "Oh my goodness, I can smell you already!" I said. Very mommy-style. You stink to high heaven and I'm going to change you right NOW!

"Way to GO, Little Man!" Daddy says from the other side of the table with a big thumbs-up. Very male bonding style. That was a 9.5, next time make it a little louder and juicier and we'll give you a TEN!

And THAT is the difference between mommies and daddies.

This was the Mommy's profile photo on Facebook last week:
You know, all sweet and sappy and mother-son mushy.

This was the Hubby's profile photo at the same time:
All warrior-fighter son and father-pride.

And that pretty much says everything you need to know about the difference between mommies and daddies.
