Blame the Baby Part 2

  So a few weeks ago we talked about how parents blame their vertically challenged offspring for things that were their own fault.  But I've been thinking lately....can I really be blamed even for the things I actually do?  Take for example my new smelly gross diapers; mommy makes this huge deal about how gross my diapers have become lately.  However, who feeds me the solid food that causes my stomach to do somersaults and diapers to be, shall we say, a bit more than lightly aromatic?  Mommy does!  And what about me waking up screaming in the night?  I can't help it that the 'rents haven't learned how to balance solid with liquid feedings to make sure I don't wake up hungry.  NOT MY FAULT!  And I just love when they put me in my excersaucer and then call me cranky when I cry to get out.  Hello!  I didn't want to go in the excersaucer!  You put me there!  But my personal favorite is when some one gets frustrated when I spill their drink, food, etc.  Who put it right next to me?  Mommy or daddy!  *sigh* (Wait, make that *heavy sigh*)  When you think about it, babies can't be blamed for anything we do.  So next time you see one of us screaming hysterically, throwing food, having a fit, pulling our mommy's hair (or the dog's, cat's, local skunk, etc.), projectile spitting-up on the neighbor, or glowering with rage, just remember....it's NOT OUR FAULT!  :)
