Baby Blues by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott for September 23, 2023

Slow learners

Shut the bathroom door with her inside and dry her there. She doesn’t look tall enough to reach the doorknob.

Looks like Wren is a flight risk.

Go Wren!

Fly little bird, be free!

Air dried.

She’s slippery!

Let her run around. She will tire herself out

On the radio…. The Who, playing “I’m Free”!

My little brother was about 2 when the song “The Streak” by Ray Stevens came out. Once he learned the song the above scenario would happen along with him singing the song, complete with Weeee Boogety boogety.

So she’s not crawling anymore.

Have they learn nothing from the first two kids?!

I remember this hishap…including my youngest doing this outside of the house (more than once).

Hello, everyone, this is your action news reporter

With all the news that is news

Across the living house

On the scene in the living room

There seems to have been some disturbance here

Pardon me, sir, did you see what happened?

Yeah, I did

I’s standin’ over there by the coffee table

And here she come

Running through in front of the couch

Right past the television set

Nekkid as a jay bird

And I hollered over t’ Zoe

I said, “Don’t look, Zoe!”

But it’s too late

She’d already been incensed

Boogity, boogity

(There she goes)

Boogity, boogity

(And she ain’t wearin’ no clothes)

Oh, yes, they call her the Streak

(Boogity, boogity)

Fastest thing on two feet

(Boogity, boogity)

She’s just as proud as he can be

Of her anatomy

She goin’ give us a peek

Oh, yes, they call her the Streak

(Boogity, boogity)

She likes to show off her physique

(Boogity, boogity)

If there’s an audience to be found

She’ll be streakin’ around

Invitin’ public critique

This is your action news reporter once again

And we’re here in the kitchen

Pardon me, sir, did you see what happened?

Yeah, I did

I’s just in here gettin a couple of cookies

An’ she just appeared from around the refrigerator

She come streakin’ around the breakfast table

Didn’t have nothin’ on but a smile

I looked in there, and Zoe was gettin’ her a cold drink

I hollered, “Don’t look, Zoe!”

But it was too late

She’d already been mooned

Flashed her right there in front of the dish washer

Boogity, boogity

(She ain’t lewd)

Boogity, boogity

(She’s just in the mood to run in the nude)

Oh, yes, they call her the Streak

(Boogity, boogity)

She likes to turn the other cheek

(Boogity, boogity)

She’s always makin’ the news

Wearin’ just her tennis shoes

Guess

It’s a Bare Wren landscape.

I guess this is so called “football”, ie the sport with a ball not easy to handle or suited to play with your feet… But, I doubt it matter which shape the ball has under these circumstances…

“Get the net!” What is this referred to? If it was soccer, it could be used for the gap between the goal post and a person holding it. But, it should be way more common to just say “close the gap”.

MN tWINs WIN AL Central, last night!!!

YAAAAAYYYYY

AND they did it AT HOME

DON’T LOOK HAMMIE!!

Better than a rodeo!

It is sort of comical isn’t it Hammie?

Silly, Wren reminds me of a troll doll.

I remember those days. All the baby books said “relax your baby before a nap with a nice warm bath.” This did nothing more then get my little guy all riled up, refilled with energy.

Haha! (＾▽＾) You’d think after the 3rd kid they’d have this routine down pat!
