Now what?!

Having an infant boy taught us very early how important it is to protect ourselves from the involuntary 'christening' supplied during diapers changes. We normally use a washcloth for protection. Liam has recently figured out that he can grab the washcloths and remove them. We watched a very interesting game unfold between Tobias and Liam.

The scenario:
Tobias' turn to change Liam. Tobias places the washcloth for protection. Liam grabs the washcloth and smiles. Tobias grabs another washcloth and places it on Liam. Tobias smiles. Liam grabs the washcloth with his remaining free hand - now holding one in each hand. Liam smiles. Tobias grabs a third washcloth. Liam looks at his hands, looks down and then turns to Tobias with this look, as to say . . .

. . . now what do I do?

Tobias smiles and says, 'I will not be tricked.' I can already see Liam's mind working out what that means. Like father, like son!!
