Sometimes I think Dads get a bad rap. They are constantly made fun of in commercials and media being depicted as being dopey or incompetent. Sure, most Dads I know fit that category but that can’t be the norm?

Can it?

I’m kidding of course. Actually, most of the Dads I know are the fun hands on type. Nothing like these Dads in the cartoon. Nope. No relationship at all.

That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.

My husband’s a baby-wearing dad. From the second he walks in the door at night, Liam is his. Which gives me a little time to read or catch up on TV :)

The first one is all too familiar. Steve is hands on, but when Tate cries, he ends up in my hands.

Steve wears Tate when the 3 of us are out and about and I love it!

I laughed out loud at work at the last one! I had to share it with the office because they all thought I was crazy :)

The first one and the last one were GREAT. So true in my house…

I cracked up at the last one too! It was totally the funniest of all. How sick am I? LOL!
