Bathtub Comedy

One of our fancy, high-end bathtub toys is an old ricotta cheese container. Hey, reduce, reuse, recycle, right? Anyway...a few weeks ago at bath time, Harry absolutely cracked himself up by dumping a ricotta-container full of water on his head and saying "Look at me! I'm Harry Jameson Ricotta Cheese Head!" Since then, this has become a regular bath time comedy routine that just doesn't get old for him. In fact, if I just call him Harry while giving him a bath, I am promptly corrected. "No! I'm not Harry! I'm Harry Jameson Ricotta Cheese Head!"

After bath tonight, as I was getting him all dried and into his jammies, I said, "OK, Harry Jameson Ricotta Cheese Head, let's get your teeth brushed." "MO-OM... That's only when I'm IN THE TUB. Now I'm just HARRY."

I stand corrected.
