From the Top

Dentists are really on to something. I've discovered that certain tasks are just way easier when done from the head end of baby--that is standing behind his head while he's lying on the changing table. This includes: Looking for new teeth, and brushing the tiny ones he has. Cleaning out a really stuffy nose. Trimming nails (incidentally I always do this while whisteling a tune and it never fails to keep him still and attentive). And baby massage. Try it, you'll be amazed at how much easier these tasks are.
