    Very funny! And so accurate! I like the part about the soap. Never thought if my hands are clear enough to touch the baby before became a parent! Feel so shameful for that!

    Of course it's important but in the same time baby needs some contact with bacterias to develop immune system

    My son-in-law "Bulent-come on" (The grand grand grand... son of Tutankhamon) resigned from his job in Cairo/Egypt and returned Istanbul/Turkey just for spending time with his baby son all day and "night" long. ;-)

    Theses are sooo accurate and yet, so cute! Even though my son is already 34 years old, I can relate entirely to all except #17. I am glad that trollers were so simple years ago.

    I can totally empathize although the only kids I've ever had have been the four legged kind.

    Does GPS really tell you if you're going too slow, or is that a gag? Mine 'dings' when I'm going faster than the posted limit.
