Sharing Dinner

Today, my wife informed me that she was reading in her book that the baby is now getting his nutrients from eating the amniotic fluid.  Apparently, everything she eats trickles down into the ever-replenishing fluid, and he ends up eating the same thing.  I guess that’s why they say that babies get fussy when the mother eats spicy food, because he’s getting it too. 

The moment I found out that he’s sharing her meals, I grabbed the box of feta cheese and handed it to her.  She looked at me oddly and asked, “What’s that for?”  I replied, “I wanted to start him off on the right foot.”  My wife’s puzzled look turned instantly into a smile, followed by a hardy laugh.  “You are a goofy man, but I love you.”
